The Dodge Stealth was a sports grand tourer sold by Dodge for the 1991 to 1996 model years. It was a rebadged, Chrysler-branded version of the Mitsubishi 3000GT, with Dodge-specific styling and trims. The model was assembled in Japan and sold in both the United States and Canada, making it part of the Canadian market for early-1990s performance coupes.

History

The Dodge Stealth was introduced for the 1991 model year and was produced through 1996. It resulted from a Chrysler-Mitsubishi collaboration, with Mitsubishi supplying most of the platform and drivetrain.

Design and engineering

Although based on the Mitsubishi 3000GT, the Stealth had unique exterior styling associated with Dodge. Higher-performance versions offered advanced technology for the era, including all-wheel drive, all-wheel steering, active aerodynamics, and adjustable suspension.

Trims and performance

The model line included lower-output V6 versions and a high-performance R/T Twin Turbo. Reported output for the twin-turbo variants ranged around 300 hp in early years, with later models cited around 320 hp.

Market position

The Stealth was positioned as a high-tech grand tourer competing with other performance coupes of the early 1990s. It developed a niche following, but sales were not strong enough to keep the model in production beyond 1996.
