The Common Modular Platform (CMP)[2] is a modular car platform which is jointly developed and used by French car manufacturer PSA Group (merged into Stellantis since 2021) and Chinese car manufacturer Dongfeng.[3] It debuted in 2018 with the release of the DS 3 (formerly DS 3 Crossback),[3] the platform is mainly used by B-segment (supermini or subcompact) vehicles along with some entry level C-segment vehicles.[3][4] For larger cars from the C-segment above, PSA/Stellantis uses the Efficient Modular Platform (EMP2).[5]
The CMP offers a high level of modularity with a choice of two track widths, three wheelbase lengths, three rear modules and the capability to offer several wheel diameters, allowing engineers and designers to introduce a broad range of body styles, from hatchbacks and saloons to SUVs.[3] It has been extended for battery-electric vehicles as e-CMP and e-CMP2.
