A new smaller sleeker grille with prominent vertical chrome divider bars replaced the egg-crate style used in 1985. The rear taillights were restyled to look more modern and detailed but continued to have three lights per side. The sheet metal remained unchanged; however the new front and rear restyles updated the appearance of the Caprice.With the Impala no longer being produced a new base Caprice four-door model was introduced (similar to the previous Impala). Still available was a four-door sedan coupe and eight-passenger station wagon while a new Brougham four-door sedan joined the model line-up. Brougham models featured a 55/45 front seat with armrest and a new "pillow design" with velour fabrics. Broughams featured woodgrain appliqué on its dash fascia a dome map light front-door courtesy lights and 20 oz carpeting.

The 307 cu in Oldsmobile-built V8 remained unchanged and was the only available engine for the station wagons. Some Canadian-sold Chevrolet Caprice sedans used the 307 cu in Oldsmobile-built V8 in place of the Chevrolet-built 305 cu in engine during the 1987 model year.The 1988 model line-up was revised with sport coupe dropped due to low sales.
