The Oldsmobile Omega is a compact car manufactured and marketed from 1973 to 1984 by Oldsmobile, as the brand's most affordable, entry level vehicle — across three distinct generations.
The first two generations of the Omega used rear-wheel-drive configuration, as a badge engineered variant of the Chevrolet Nova.[1] The third generation was marketed from 1980 to 1984 in a front-wheel-drive, as a variation of the Chevrolet Citation.
The omega nameplate derived from the last letter of the Greek alphabet.
