Do they still make Dodge Intrepid?
No. The Dodge Intrepid is not in production anymore—the model ended after the 2004 model year, and Dodge has not revived the name since. There is no new Intrepid in the current Dodge lineup.
To understand why and what happened next, this article traces the Intrepid's history, explains how Dodge shifted its lineup in the mid-2000s, and looks at the brand's current sedans.
Production history
Here is a concise timeline of the Dodge Intrepid's production history.
- 1993: Dodge Intrepid is launched as a full‑size, rear‑wheel‑drive sedan built on the Chrysler LH platform (shared with the Concorde and later the 300).
- 1998: The model receives a mid‑cycle refresh, updating styling and interior features in line with its LH siblings.
- 2004: Last model year for the Intrepid; production ends as Dodge shifts its lineup toward newer platforms and models.
- 2005–present: Dodge does not revive the Intrepid name; the large-sedan role is filled by the Chrysler 300 (introduced for the 2005 model year) and the Dodge Charger (introduced for the 2006 model year).
Conclusion: The Intrepid name has not returned, and Dodge's modern sedans use other badges rather than reviving the original model.
Current status in the Dodge lineup
Readers looking for a modern Dodge sedan will not find an Intrepid. The closest contemporary vehicle in size and intent is the Dodge Charger, while the brand now emphasizes a mix of performance cars and SUVs.
- Dodge Charger — a large four‑door sedan that serves as the primary modern sedan option in Dodge’s lineup.
- Other former Dodge sedans (like the Stratus and Avenger) have been retired, with Dodge focusing on the Challenger (muscle coupe), Durango (SUV), and Charger for the sedan segment.
Conclusion: No Intrepid today; for new-car shoppers, the Charger is the practical substitute in Dodge's sedan lineup, with the brand expanding into performance and utility vehicles instead.
What to consider if you're hunting for a Dodge Intrepid today
Since production ended long ago, any Intrepid you encounter will be a used example. If you’re evaluating one, prioritize maintenance history, check for rust, transmission reliability, and ensure replacement parts and qualified mechanics familiar with the LH/early‑LX era are available.
Alternative avenues and resources
Enthusiast forums, classic‑car marketplaces, and regional clubs can be good sources for information, parts, and community knowledge when considering a Dodge Intrepid as a project or daily driver in older‑car condition.
Summary
The Dodge Intrepid is not in production and has not been revived since its 1993 debut. The last Intrepid rolled off the line in 2004, and Dodge shifted toward newer models such as the Chrysler 300 and the revived Dodge Charger to fill the large-sedan niche. For today’s shoppers, the Intrepid remains a used‑car option and a notable chapter in Dodge’s history.
