context_page_description: The Chevrolet Celebrity is an automobile that was produced by the Chevrolet division of General Motors. Sold from the 1982 to 1990 model years, a single generation of the Celebrity was produced, replacing the Malibu as the mid-size Chevrolet model range. During the early 1960s, the nameplate was first used by Oldsmobile for the pillared sedan version of the Oldsmobile 88.
  It is based on the front-wheel drive GM A platform, and was produced alongside the Buick Century, Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, and Pontiac 6000. The interior space and running gear are the same as the compact Citation, but Celebrity is trimmed and equipped better. Power steering/brakes and automatic transmission were standard in 1982-83 and became optional in 1984. The station wagon debuted for 1984 and so did a Eurosport handling/ appearance package. A high-output fuel-injected V6 became an option in 1985, and diesel engines were phased out. Generation II engines, reworked for 1987, have fuel injection, and a new Getrag-designed 5-speed manual transmission became available with the V6. Balance shafts were added to the Tech IV engine for '88. The 4-cylinder engine gained 12 horsepower in late 1989.

  For the 1990 model year, the Celebrity sedan was discontinued, replaced by the Chevrolet Lumina, with the Chevrolet Lumina APV minivan replacing the station wagon, which ended production after the 1990 model year.
