Help with Dodge Intrepid ESX 1996 concept car ?

Bonjour,

I am looking for pictures of the Dodge Intrepid ESX (the first one,
1995/6) hybrid concept car. The only one picture I found is from the
Metalcrafters web site (red car on sandy beach, 3/4 front view, driver
side).

1) Can anyone send me pictures of that car or indicate where I can get
more ?

2) Can anyone indicate a Dodge/Chrysler representative who could help
me get more information (ex.: e-mail of someone in design center, etc.)
?

Note: I have already tried Metalcrafters; one of their representative
replied that they have no more information on that car !?!
Thanks in advance.

Try www.google.com , and in the search bar type in Dodge Intrepid ESX and it
will reveil hundreds of resources for what you are looking for. including a
site that has a slide show presentation for that car.

And you can do homework research at google too!

Bonjour

Thanks for the book reference, but I was more searching for pictures I
could download (and I have been combing the net for a while ...see my
post "Exotic Intrepid" in rec.models.scale).

As for people involved in the ESX (1995/6) project, I have found the
following relevances :

1985-2002 Tom Gale VP Design, Pacifica Design Studio, Carlsbad CA;
2002- retired

1985-2002 Tom Tremont, chief designer, Pacifica Design Studio,Carlsbad
CA; 2002- VP Advance Product Design Strategy in Auburn Hills, MI,
reporting to Trevor Creed Sr VP Design;

1999-2002 Freeman Thomas, Advance Product Design, Auburn Hills MI;
2002- Head of Advanced Product Design, Pacifica Design Center,
DaimlerChrysler;

1985-2000 Trevor M. Creed with DaimlerChrysler; 2000- Sr VP Design,
replaces J.E.Herlitz

ESX designer unknown !

It seems to me that Mr. Tremont should be the person I have to contact
to get more information on teh ESX design. Can anyone comment ?
Thanks for any information.

 

I could scan and post the pictures here, but that would irritate some
people.

Might want to also look at these people:

Francois Castaing
John Herlitz
Neil Walling
Craig Durfey
Hal Sperlich
Tom Tremont
Jon Rundels
Bob Hubbach
Osamu Shikado
Jack Crain
Glen Gardiner
Joe Dehner

You know, I haven't seen any good pictures of what the new Charger is
going to look like, but I bet the 1999 Charger concept is 10 times
better looking...

 

Bonjour,

For future reference, the April 1996 issue of Motor Trend featured an
article with a few pictures on the ESX.

Thanks to Tom Walker!
