E90

The Chevrolet Prizm launched for the 1989 model year as a compact four-door sedan derived from the Toyota Corolla and sold in the U.S. under the Geo brand as the Geo Prizm. It was part of the NUMMI joint-venture production arrangement and shared its basic engineering with the Corolla of the same era. The Chevrolet name did not appear on the car until later in the model's life, but this first generation covers the original Prizm lineage.
