Usually a shared platform is not visible from the outside, unlike rebadging
Some visible sharings:
- J-body cars: it was a worldwide plateform sharing, not only rebadging. Opel Ascona/Vauxhall Cavalier were rebadged cars of the other (which one was the first?), but if they were somewhat different from the Chevrolet Cavalier or the Pontiac Sunbird, for example, you can yet see a resemblance.
- Ford CE14 platform: Escort cars were quite a lot different but shared a lot on both side of the ocean.
- GM Epsilon II: the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia is not a rebadged version of the Cadillac XTS or of the Chevrolet Impala, yet you can see "something" between these cars, when you know they share the same "underwear"
And there some other examples that could be find, I think.
But you're right, usually there is no visible connection. You can hardly recognize a Peugeot 307 in a Citroën DS5
(that remembers me a previous discussion)
