It was launched in 1983 and the Chrysler line was becoming complicated as the New Yorker name was getting used in two different models. The M-body car became the New Yorker Fifth Edition which lasted for one year and was replaced by ‘Fifth Avenue’ which was used up to 1989 when the model came to an end. For this year the New Yorker name was moved to the front-wheel-drive Chrysler E-platform. This marked the start of K-car years. These cars were a description of the art of technology in those times for they had a digital dashboard and an Electronic Voice Alert. It was the final year of the turbocharger being in a New Yorker, it was in the E-body series and the turbo was called the New York Turbo.
For 1988, the New Yorker was returned to the Chrysler C platform, and the front-wheel drive. The Fifth Avenue remained as an M-body on a stretched platform although it joined the New Yorker later in 1990. The Last Generation of the New Yorker was launched as an LH-car and was to be done in 1994 although it was unveiled in a show held in Detroit in 1992, namely the North American International Auto Show. The LHS shared an identical exterior with the Dodge Intrepid, Chrysler Concorde, and the Eagle Vision. The LHS had a more European appearance and performance. It had much resemblance to most of New Yorker’s characteristics and was offered in different colors.
