1990 Tracker Specs
Overview

Chevrolet's popular, fun-to-drive Geo Tracker adds an uplevel convertible model for 1990.

First introduced in 1989 for the growing personal-use truck market segment, the saucy little four-passenger, four-wheel-drive made its debut in three models -- a two-door, hardtop Tracker, an uplevel Tracker LSi and a Tracker convertible.

The new model, designated Tracker convertible LSi, now sports the same deluxe interior and exterior appointments as its hardtop sibling.

Measuring two feet shorter (142.5 vs. 170.3 inches) with more head and hip room than the S-10 Blazer, the Tracker rivals much larger vehicles in interior space. Front/rear leg room is 42.1 and 31.7 inches respectively. Cargo room is a respectable 32 cubic feet with the rear seat folded flat.

Powertrain equipment is essentially carryover. The engine is a Suzuki-designed 1.6 liter 4-cylinder engine with electronic fuel injection, the Tracker delivers 80 horsepower at 5500 rpm and 94 ft.-lbs. of torque at 3000 rpm.

The engine has both an aluminum block and cylinder head and is fitted to a standard 5-speed manual transmission. The 3-speed automatic transmission is now optional on all Trackers in 1990.

Tracker's front suspension is a MacPherson-strut with arm-mounted coil springs. At the rear, there are trailing arms, upper A-arm and rearward-angled shocks and coil springs with a live axle.

A floor-mounted 2-speed transfer case shift lever and automatic locking hubs enable positive selection between two- and four-wheel-drive operation.

Tracker's other standard equipment includes:

* Power-assist front disc/rear drum brakes.
* P205/75R15 on/off-road tires and 15-inch styled steel wheels.
* Full-size, rear-mounted spare tire.
* Flush-mounted halogen headlamps.
* Dual rearview mirrors.
* Tow hooks, front/rear.
* Tachometer and trip odometer.

In convertible form, the Tracker sports a full-folding canvas top with a unique “sunroof,” zip-out rear window and roll-down door windows.

In convertible or hardtop models, the LSi package adds:

* 15-inch, chrome rally wheels.
* P205/75R15 white letter tires.
* Tinted glass.
* Exclusive seats and seat trim.
* Rear wiper/washer (hardtop only).
* Floor mats, front/rear. Intermittent wipers.
* AM/FM stereo radio.
* Spare tire cover.

Tracker sports two new exterior colors and a new standard interior trim for ?90.

Geo Trackers are built for Chevrolet by CAMI, a joint Suzuki-GM of Canada venture located in Ingersoll, Ontario, Canada, and by Suzuki Motor Company, Ltd. in Kosai, Japan.
