The GS platform (also known as "Project Global" by Mitsubishi) is a compact car platform co-developed and shared by Mitsubishi Motors and DaimlerChrysler.
After dissolution of the DaimlerChrysler / Mitsubishi partnership in 2004, DaimlerChrysler made substantial changes to the platform [1] subsequently naming it the JS platform for mid-size cars and PM/MK for compact cars.
Mitsubishi's GS vehicles are manufactured in Japan with the exception of the RVR/Outlander Sport, which was manufactured at the former Diamond-Star Motors plant in Normal, Illinois, USA. Mitsubishi's first GS platform car was the 2005 Mitsubishi Outlander crossover SUV.
PM/MK vehicles from Chrysler are assembled at Belvidere Assembly in Belvidere, Illinois ( Dodge Caliber and Jeep Compass) and JS Vehicles were produced at the Sterling Heights Assembly ( Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger).
Chrysler said the 200's predecessor, the Chrysler Sebring, and Avenger did not use the GS platform, though that was their starting point. [2]
