Since 2000, there were various statements made by FIAT and General Motors about their cooperation in building new "small car" platform, where the main responsibility of GM would be overall chassis and suspension design, while Fiat will use their own engines and implement somewhat different styling (see the Fiat Punto article). The work on GM part was supposed to be done by Opel engineers located in Germany, and Fiat will use the platform for its 2005 Punto; it will also be the foundation for the new 2006 Corsa.
Now I see statements all over Opel Corsa, GM Daewoo Motors and this GM Gamma platform articles that it's now Daewoo responsibility to develop a new version of Gamma platform. I can't find any references. Can anyone confirm the sources of this information? Maybe GM DAT is developing "next-next" version of the platform, that is the one that should be employed by 2010 when 2006 Corsa is to be replaced? -- DmitryKo 22:44, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)
As a German my english might simply not be good enough but my impression is that the following sentence has some mistakes in it. What does "Acturally" mean to start with? Is "wheelbase" or "Corsa" now writen with capital first letter or not? And what is the sentence all about in coherence with the rest of the article anyways?
Acturally, S4300 underpins Opel corsa C which has a 2,491 mm (98.1 in) Wheelbase, that was growning from S4200 (Corsa B) which has a 2,465 mm (97.0 in) wheelbase.

Why the entire section on Gamma/SCCS was split into a separate article and no text has been left here? SCCS has always been referred as Gamma in GM world and it was mainly engineered by Opel, and Gamma II is a development of that platform as well. -- Dmitry ( talk• contibs) 20:06, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
"Fiat Auto e Gm Europe hanno raggiunto un accordo per la creazione di un centro di progettazione congiunto per lo sviluppo di componenti e sistemi comuni destinati alle rispettive produzioni di vetture di piccola cilindrata. Il centro di progettazione avrà sede a Torino. Responsabile del centro sarà Ulrich Schmalohr, l' ingegnere a capo della linea «small cars» della Opel, mentre Giorgio Cornacchia di Fiat Auto assumerà l' incarico di capo progetto del nuovo team di sviluppo congiunto, che sarà operativo da subito. Secondo la Fiat, «l' impegno per lo sviluppo congiunto è diretto unicamente a componenti e tecnologia senza impatti sulla specificità del marchio delle rispettive vetture di futura generazione»." -- Corvettec6r ( talk) 13:09, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
