Oldsmobile Intrigue: The Modern Midsize Sedan
The Intrigue was a stylish, modern midsize sedan that aimed to give Oldsmobile a contemporary, import-fighting family car.
Produced from 1998 to 2002, the Intrigue was Oldsmobile's midsize sedan, designed with clean, European-influenced styling to appeal to import-minded buyers. It replaced the Cutlass Supreme and aimed to modernize the brand's family-car image.
The Intrigue offered V6 power, including a version of the advanced Shortstar V6, a comfortable ride, and good handling for its class. It was praised for its design and dynamics relative to other domestic sedans of its era.
The Intrigue was one of Oldsmobile's better modern efforts, but it could not reverse the brand's decline before it was discontinued.
