Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham (1980-1986)
The Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham is a 1974-1986 produced passenger car model of the U.S. car brand Cadillac.
Model history
With the model 1975 Cadillac gave up the traditional name used since 1938 Sixty Special and renamed the model in Fleetwood Brougham to.
When Fleetwood Brougham, it was a luxury equipped version of the DeVille sedan on a longer wheelbase ( 337.8 instead of 330.2 cm initially ) with an otherwise unchanged Technology ( rear-wheel drive, rigid rear axle, 8.2 - liter V8 with four -barrel carburetor (193 PS) or injection ( 218 hp ) ).
For the model year 1977, all Cadillac models were ( with the exception of Seville and Eldorado) reduced, but retained rear wheel drive. From this point on, DeVille and Fleetwood Brougham shared the wheelbase ( 308.6 cm). The drive now took a seven- liter V8 (183 hp carbureted, 198 hp with fuel injection ), the transmission continues the Turbo Hydra-Matic three- speed automatic.
For the model year 1980, a small facelift with a little flatter front end, which should improve the aerodynamics and thus reduce fuel consumption. At the same time the seven- liter was replaced by a six-liter V8; upon request made by the Oldsmobile diesel V8 with a 5.7 liter engine was available. For the first time the Fleetwood Brougham was also available as a two-door coupe.
Only in 1981 was one of the modular, so-called V8 -6- 4 engine with 6 liters of displacement and cylinder cut-off standard equipment; On request there is also a 4.1 -liter V6 diesel or continue to the left to order. From 1982, a new, developed by Cadillac itself 4.1 -liter V8 as standard and the V6 was accounted again.
As for model year 1985, the Fleetwood was reduced again ( along with the Cadillac DeVille ) and converted to front-wheel drive, the former Fleetwood Brougham was continued as a separate model in the Cadillac range and from model year 1987 Cadillac Brougham called simply. 1986 Fleetwood Brougham Coupe accounted for the and the diesel engine; of 4.1 liter V8 was replaced by a five-liter.
The large model with rear-wheel drive remained in production until 1992 and was replaced in autumn 1992 by the re- converted to rear wheel drive Cadillac Fleetwood on the General Motors -D platform, which was related to the Chevrolet Caprice time.
