To my understanding, the platform is a set of sometimes broadly defined manufacturing specs and dimensions that, let one basic floorpan design (and in some cases the door and rooflines) be used for multiple vehicles and use the same assembly systems or even the same production line. The platform can usually be widened, narrowed, stretched, and shortened to some degree and different body styles and sheet metal can be put on top. But the specific dimensions and the pieces that go on this structure are what make the cars using a given platform different.
