When you take the 2024 Dodge Hornet for a test drive, you’ll fall in love with its commanding performance, amazing infotainment system, and abundance of driver assistance technology. Check out our list below for a closer look at why drivers are so enthusiastic about this thrilling SUV.
1. The Awesome Infotainment System
Today’s SUV shoppers love a great infotainment system, and Dodge clearly set out to be impressive when they chose their 10.25-inch touchscreen. This full-color display is the largest touchscreen in its class. The system uses Uconnect 5: software that’s easy to customize so you see the information that’s most relevant to you.
Dodge made their infotainment system even better by adding wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard features. Additionally, if you use Amazon Alexa as your at-home assistant, you can add this available feature to your Hornet. This makes it easy to keep track of your calendar or send navigation instructions to your Hornet through Amazon Alexa. You can also add a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot, allowing everyone in your spacious SUV to connect their devices with ease.
2. The Cold Weather Package
Four available packages add fun features to the Hornet. The Cold Weather package is of particular interest to our Michigan drivers. This great add-on gives the entry-level GT trim heated front seats, as well as a heated steering wheel for enhanced comfort. It also adds remote start, so you can get the climate control system running before you get behind the wheel.
3. The Thrilling Performance
The GT and GT Plus are powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo engine, and paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. The system comes with a great all-wheel drive setup, giving you enhanced control on slippery roads. Altogether, the Hornet is an amazing SUV to drive, with 268 horsepower under the hood and 295 lb.-ft of torque.
4. The Advanced Driver Assistance Technology
When you take the Hornet for a test drive, you can expect to be impressed by the serious driver assistance technology Dodge added to the entry-level GT. You’ll have excellent safety content with lane keep assist, automatic emergency braking, and forward collision warning. You’ll also have a blind spot monitoring system paired with a rear cross path detection feature.
Additionally, the Hornet comes with adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go. This feature allows you to set your desired speed and following distance. It will then adapt to the changes in speed made by the car you’re following, slowing up or speeding down as necessary to stay safe.
