The Toyota NBC platform is an automobile platform for subcompact cars (B-segment cars) from Toyota.^[1] "NBC" stands for "New Basic Car" or "New Basic Compact".^[2]^[3]^[4] The NBC platform made its debut in January 1999 with the first generation Vitz; as such, it is also called the "Vitz platform".^[5] It is replaced by the newer B platform.

Features

NBC cars can be either front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive.
AWD variants use V-Flex II system, which is a viscous-coupling torque-on-demand.
Engines are mounted transversely.
Front suspension is MacPherson strut, while rear is torsion beam.
Brakes are ventilated discs at front and drums at rear.

Models

First generation Vitz family:
- Hatchback: XP10 — Vitz/Yaris/Echo (Japan/Europe/Canada/Australia)
- Sedan: XP10 — Platz/Echo (Japan/Canada/United States)
- MPV: XP20 — Fun Cargo/Yaris Verso (Japan/Europe)
Various vehicles based on the first generation Vitz:
- AP10 — Porte
- XP19 — WiLL Vi
- XP30 — First generation bB (Japan) and Scion xB (United States)
- XP40 — First generation Vios/Soluna Vios
- XP50 — Probox/Succeed vans and wagons (use stretched wheelbase)
- XP60 — First generation ist (Japan) and Scion xA (Unites States)
- XP70 — WiLL Cypha
- XP80 — First generation Sienta

Notes

Second generation bB and xB are no longer based on NBC platform:
- Second generation bB uses smaller Passo/Daihatsu Boon "NC" platform (which is Daihatsu-rooted);
- Second generation xB utilizes larger MC platform.
The third vehicle in the "WiLL" series — WiLL VS — was built on a larger MC platform.
The full model code is depending on the engine, see List of Toyota model codes for formula.
