    Platform is the body & unichassis . It doesn't mean the its the same under the chassis, because their ride heights aren't the same, and so are the geometry in aligning all wheels.
    Platform used as a basis pertains to the manufacturing plants' description of the cars , usually for parts compatibility and for tax bracketing of the models during exportation & importation to different countries.
    Claiming that the Mobilio & the BRV have just the same wheel alignment program are insisted by people usually do a short cut and usually say,
    "Puede na yan."

    so the questions remain,
    "are they the same, or are they not?"
    "are the parts the same?"
    "are the alignment numbers the same?"

    i mean,
    if the manufacturer/dealer says it is, then who are we to say, it ain't ?
    but then, mistakes are known to happen even at the highest levels...
