Not content with totally redesigning the Plymouth for 1935, the company further developed the model for 1936 starting from the ground up - the chassis was now an oval centre section with an X-frame riveted to it and boxed side rail members for additional rigidity, again using the 'Unit Frame & Body Construction' method of bolting the body both vertically and horizontally at 46 points for excellent structural integrity.
The '36 Plymouths were restyled with taller and thinner lines and again came in a variety of different body styles ranging from basic two-door coupes through to seven-passenger sedans. Two distinct models were offered, the P1 Business line with more basic trim levels and less bright work, and the P2 Deluxe while the running gear remained largely unchanged from the previous year apart from minor improvements to the suspension and transmission. For the first time, Plymouth production exceeded 500,000 units and a number were built for export markets with right-hand drive.
