The '''Daewoo Prince''' is a [mid-size](/source/Mid-size_car) [luxury car](/source/Luxury_vehicle) that was produced by [Daewoo](/source/GM_Daewoo) in [South Korea](/source/South_Korea) between 1991 and 1999. The car was based on the [rear-wheel drive](/source/rear-wheel_drive) [Opel Rekord E](/source/Opel_Rekord_E), although the body was of Daewoo design, as opposed to the [Opel](/source/Opel)-designed, [Holden](/source/Holden)-manufactured body of the Prince's [Royale](/source/Daewoo_Royale) predecessor.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Zal|first=Pawel|url=https://www.automobile-catalog.com/model/daewoo/prince_daewoo.html#gsc.tab=0|title=Daewoo Prince specifications: versions & types|work=Automobilecatalog.com|publisher=Automobile Catalog|access-date=1 July 2025}}</ref> The Prince was powered by 1.8- and 2.0-litre Opel [Family II](/source/Family_II_engine) four-cylinder engines.<ref>{{cite journal | year = 1995 | title = Daewoo Prince | journal = Automobil Revue | pages = 224}}</ref> The Prince spawned two additional variants, the '''Daewoo Brougham''' and the '''Daewoo Super Salon'''. The base Prince was replaced by the [Leganza](/source/Daewoo_Leganza), while the more luxurious Brougham and Super Salon were succeeded by the [Daewoo Chairman](/source/Daewoo_Chairman) in 1997, Taxi models continued in production until September 1999.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://bobaedream.co.kr/view?code=national&No=1184457|title=대우택시의 역사(?)카탈로그 시리즈~~~}}</ref>
