- Type_Four_platform abstract "The Type Four chassis was a common front wheel drive platform used in the 1980s and 1990s for the Saab 9000, Fiat Croma, Lancia Thema and Alfa Romeo 164.It emerged as an agreement between the four carmakers in October 1978 to reduce development costs on new top-of-the-range saloons, although it would be another six to nine years before the cars were launched.The Fiat and Lancia looked much like the Saab, but the Alfa Romeo only shared the chassis. The wheelbase is 2.67 m (105 inches) on all models. The contemporaneous Peugeot 605 looked very similar to the Alfa Romeo 164 as it was also styled by Pininfarina, but was actually based on a Citroen XM platform. The Saab and Fiat were launched as 5-door hatchbacks and the Alfa Romeo and Lancia sold as 4-door saloons. Lancia added the only Type Four estate in 1986 and Saab eventually added a saloon version of the 9000 in 1988.Because they were very similar, many parts can be exchanged between the four cars regardless of brand. For example, the doors from the Fiat Croma fit directly on the 9000, but are lighter, due to less side impact protection. The windshield from the Croma can also be used on the 9000. Likewise the wing mirrors off both the 9000 and the Thema are almost identical (9000 has a pressed recess on the mirror casing, Thema is without recess) and should fit both cars with the doors being similar albeit in crash structure. Because its platform was shared closely with three other cars, the Saab 9000's ignition key was situated on the steering column instead of between the front seats. Alfa Romeo differs most from other cars, it has for example an exclusive front suspension and has some chassis modifications. The Saab has a live axle rear suspension, rather than an independent MacPherson one. The front of the Saab is radically different from the Italian siblings due to the much improved crash protection.On the 6th episode in the 9th season of the British motoring program Top Gear, James May welds together a Saab 9000 and an Alfa Romeo 164 to make a stretch limousine. He said the two cars should be entirely compatible because they have the same wheelbase and floor pan. It was nicknamed 'Salfa Romeaab'".
