Chevrolet Citation Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1980–1985) — First Generation
The first-generation Chevrolet Citation was a compact car offered as a practical hatchback in three- and five-door forms. It paired straightforward engineering with everyday usability, giving buyers a sensible choice.
Under the hood, the Chevrolet Citation engine lineup focused on dependable gasoline power. Entry models used a 2.5-liter four-cylinder, available with either a manual or automatic transmission. For more effortless highway cruising, a larger 2.8-liter V6 could be paired with a manual gearbox. All versions sent power to the rear wheels, a traditional setup that many drivers found predictable and easy to maintain.
