Does anyone know about car position model in mechanical design?

I heard that car position model is a model that is some where in the space and placed irrespective of origin. I want to clearly learn about it.And How to design and modify them?

I've heard the same, but have never seen such a model.
It seems like it could save some assembly time, but it would also require advance knowledge of where each piece goes in the assembly.
It also seems like it would make editing or building the parts more difficult. I guess you could add additional coordinate systems to each part...

It seems like it would be a huge hassle to deal with in SOLIDWORKS, but maybe a program meant for larger projects has some method of working with these types of models.

I'm interested to see if someone with this experience can add some details.
