1988 Dodge Intrepid

Before the arrival of the 1993 Dodge Intrepid 4-door sedan, a wedge-shaped 2-door concept called Intrepid was displayed at the 1988 Chicago show. Dodge considered the design an aerodynamic leap into the future. Topped by a full flush all-glass canopy, the prototype used sheet metal panels and was finished in a deep candy apple red. The mid-mounted 2.2-liter 4-cylinder was rated at 225 horsepower and 225 feet pounds of torque. The engine was teamed with a 5-speed manual gearbox called the Turbo III. Built off a Dodge Daytona chassis, Intrepid had a wheelbase of 95.4-inches, stood 45.6 inches tall, and rode on 16-inch front and 17-inch rear cast-aluminum wheels. Except for the roof shape, the Intrepid concept from 1988 was a nearly line-for-line preview of the 1991 Dodge Stealth R/T.
