The EA Falcon was available in four trim levels with a choice of three straight-six engine: the base GL powered by a 3.2 litre CFI (although the majority featured a 3.9 L version of the same engine); the luxury Fairmont powered by a 3.9 litre CFI; the sports Falcon S pack and upper luxury Fairmont Ghia both powered by a 3.9 L multi-point (MPI). A five-speed "T50D" fully synchronised manual and Borg-Warner "M51" three-speed automatic transmission were offered, however, the latter was replaced by a four-speed BTR "85SXLE" in the Series II upgrade and further upgraded to BTR "95LE" with the EB series of 1991.
