It's overall design cues will be recognized from the Intrepid ESX show car unveiled last year - marking another link between concept and production vehicles that has become a hallmark for both the Company and brand.

Incorporating Dodge's distinctive brand "signature" was a key element from the very earliest stages of developing the all-new Intrepid. Specific design traits seen in the 1998 Dodge Intrepid include a bold 'cross hair' grille - now a trademark of all Dodge vehicles - as well as a bold stance from any angle and a cockpit-style interior. The Intrepid has been given a 'fast' roofline that gives this sedan a coupe-like appearance. The Intrepid's redesign for 1998 extends far beyond its distinctive profile, starting with a series of all-new aluminum engines that are up to 25 percent more powerful and 10 percent more fuel efficient than the engines they replace.
