The front fascia was restyled to have a more aerodynamic look. The Caprice emblem was no longer a hood ornament but was an emblem located on the vertical area directly above the grill in the center of the front fascia. A new smaller sleeker grille with prominent vertical chrome divider bars replaced the egg-crate style used in 1985. The rear taillights were restyled to look more modern and detailed but continued to have three lights per side. The sheet metal remained unchanged; however the new front and rear restyles updated the appearance of the Caprice.With the Impala no longer being produced a new base Caprice four-door model was introduced (similar to the previous Impala). Still available was a four-door sedan coupe and eight-passenger station wagon while a new Brougham four-door sedan joined the model line-up. Brougham models featured a 55/45 front seat with armrest and a new "pillow design" with velour fabrics. Broughams featured woodgrain appliqué on its dash fascia a dome map light front-door courtesy lights and 20 oz carpeting. Power window controls for all models moved from the door panel to the armrest for improved ergonomics.The 4.3 L V6 engine received a 10 hp (7.5 kW) boost rated at 140 hp (100 kW). The 305 cu in engine was unchanged and remained standard on station wagons. Station wagons built after approximately November 1 1985 came equipped with the Oldsmobile-built 307 cu in engine. After this point the 305 cu in was no longer available in station wagons. This engine was used in all GM B-body station wagons from this point on to simplify production. The 307 cu in was equipped with a four-barrel carburetor and was rated at 140 hp (104 kW) and 255 lb·ft (346 N·m). The 350 cu in diesel engine was discontinued.1987-90 Caprice Classic wagonThe 1987 models saw only minor styling revisions after the restyling of the previous year. All models came equipped with new modern composite headlights and a stand-up hood ornament returned. A woodgrain appliqué was used on the dashboards for all models. The model line-up was slightly revised and now included a base level Caprice eight-passenger wagon and a Caprice Classic Brougham LS four-door sedan. The Brougham LS featured all the Brougham amenities plus a padded vinyl roof opera lights and LS monograms. Leather upholstery was a new available option for Brougham and Brougham LS sedans which also had a new pillow-style seating design and a folding center armrest in the back seat.The engine line-up received only minor changes. The 4.3 L V6 and the 305 cu in V8 were updated with roller lifters and center bolt valve covers. The 305 cu in had a 5 hp (3.7 kW) rating increase and was now rated at 170 hp (127 kW) and 250 lb·ft (339 N·m). The 307 cu in Oldsmobile-built V8 remained unchanged and was the only available engine for the station wagons. Some Canadian-sold Chevrolet Caprice sedans used the 307 cu in Oldsmobile-built V8 in place of the Chevrolet-built 305 cu in engine during the 1987 model year.The 1988 model line-up was revised with sport coupe dropped due to low sales. The station wagon line-up was reduced to one model an eight-passenger wagon. Engines remained unchanged but the four-speed automatic overdrive transmission was standard on all engines and models. Standard equipment for all models included tinted glass a remote-control driver's mirror automatic headlight on/off and an AM/FM stereo. A police version of the Caprice wagon was made; it had the code 1A2 and was designed for special service use.1989 marked the first year of a fuel-injected V8 engine. The 305 cu in V8 was updated with throttle body electronic fuel-injection (RPO LO3) first introduced in 1987 on Chevrolet/GMC pickups and vans. This engine was rated at 170 hp (127 kW) and 255 lb·ft (346 N·m) which was only a slight increase in torque over the carbureted engine.
