Chassis

A chassis (US English /ˈtʃæsi/, UK English /ˈʃæsi/; plural: "chassis" /ˈtʃæsiz/ or /ˈʃæsiz/) consists of an internal vehicle frame that supports a artificial object in its construction and use, can also provide protection for some internal parts. An example of a chassis is the underpart of a motor vehicle, consisting of the frame (on which the body is mounted). If the running gear such as wheels and transmission, and sometimes even the driver's seat, are included, then the assembly is described as a rolling chassis.

In the case of vehicles, the term rolling chassis means the frame plus the "running gear" like engine, transmission, drive shaft, differential, and suspension.
