All you moms and dads out there who cart around your 2.5 children to various athletic and social events, but who don't want to completely say goodbye to your misspent youth might be interested in a Dodge Intrepid. It combines a sporty look and engineering with a family-sized interior and trunk space that can accommodate up to six passengers (maybe even eight, if you include the trunk).
The 2001 Dodge Intrepid comes in three trims -- SE (formerly the base model), ES, and R/T. All models received thicker glass this year in Dodge's eternal quest to reduce road noise, a common complaint with the Intrepid. The SE and ES come standard with a 2.7-liter, 200-hp V6 or optional 3.2-liter, 225-hp V6. The R/T rips up the road with a 3.5-liter, 242-hp engine. A split/fold rear seat is now an option on SE and R/T models, and standard on the ES. A harness seat-belt is available for the middle rear seat, and optional front side airbags are offered for the first time in 2001.
The 2001 Dodge Intrepid is the best of both worlds for owners who want some fun on the road, but who also want comfort and easy handling for long-haul trips. The four-door sedan is popular for its ultra-cool style, its good gas mileage, responsiveness, and immediate pickup. But drivers complain of a cheap-looking interior, bad transmission, rear blind spots that hamper parking, annoying road noise, and costly maintenance record. It seems many owners have to decide which is more important to them, substance or style.
4.1 Overall rating
(25 reviews)The car is dependable, great to drive, and despite many road miles put upon it (213,000 miles) it still performs well. The Nascar styling is an "eye catcher" for those diehard fans. Good gas mileage for a full size car. Maintenance cost is reasonable. Spacious interior for full sized or large adult passengers. Seat belts are adjustable and very comfortable. Leather trim is of high quality and all seams are intact. The dash and interior door trim is solid and durable. Generous trunk space and plenty of storage in the doors and center console. There are heat/air conditioning vents on the console that supply the rear passengers directly, which is a nice feature. For a v6, the car has plenty of power to navigate quickly in high demand traffic conditions. The passing gear will leave everyone in the dust!
A great, versatile all round sedan. Decently built, decent performance. not much torque on the low end, but great passing and highway power available on demand from the 3.5 magnum V6. Using the available AutoStick semi-automatic Transmission is fun. Maneuverability is fantastic, the car corners amazingly due to its cab-forward architecture. The EVIC over head computer competently evaluates the trip and vehicle performance while reminding you of required service intervals. The interior cabin is simple yet refined and very spacious. Low points include long-term transmission durability.. that's about it, in my opinion.
After a Mini-van I was ready for a car. Great power and could turn on dime even for having a long body. Loved the car until it was flooded in Italy; never ran right after that.
I bought my car new and it has run quite well since 2001 with very few repairs needed, other than routine maintence. My car has a lot of miles too, 115,000 plus and still looks sharp!
This vehicle was a great vehicle. It ran great and drove smooth. It was very nice looking and clean. It was really roomy and comfortable to drive. There was a lot of storage space. Overall just a great vehicle to have. It used to be an undercover police car and had a police interceptor package in it. So this was kind of fast!!
