In the 1970’s, the whole of the North America was under an oil crisis and any car that would offer good fuel economy would always be a welcome solution. Many car manufacturers have started shifting their ventures to these kinds of cars and the Oldsmobile division of General Motors was quick to follow. Such occurred when they introduced the Oldsmobile Omega.
The power consumption of the large muscle cars has caused them to become unpopular and the trend has been shifting to the smaller cars. To follow suit, Oldsmobile manufactured and introduced the Oldsmobile Omega to the North American market in 1973. The Oldsmobile Omega is a compact car and being such, promises to give better fuel mileage. But the Oldsmobile promised its car buyers that the Omega is nothing like the ordinary compact car. The company promised that the car is more than what it appears to be and has a lot of advantage over its competitors but sold at a lower cost.
The Oldsmobile Omega is a compact car based on the GM X-body platform and shares its design and most of its parts with their more popular Chevrolet stable mates. The car had to generations, although both generations were based on the same GM X-body platform. The first generation Oldsmobile Omega was a rear wheel drive compact car similar to the more popular Chevrolet Nova. It was produced and sold from 1971 to 1979. The second generation Oldsmobile Omega was manufactured from 1980 up to 1985, but this time it was a front-wheel drive and a kin to the more popular Chevrolet Citation. In its entire 15 years in the market, the car was sold either as a 2-door coupe, a 4-door sedan or a 3-door hatchback.
Most people would contest that the Oldsmobile Omega can’t still be considered a classic or a vintage car. Most would call the car simply as “old”. But this old car won’t simply give up, and its reliability over the years seems to be unquestioned. The first generation of the car seems to be more popular than the second, and resale value for the first seems to be better compared to the second. The car is also a favorite for various customizations, as it has proven to be largely useable after a few mechanical and body repairs and replacements.
