If you’re looking for a stylish, extremely fun, yet highly practical daily driver, the 2024 Dodge Hornet is hard to beat. With Dodge’s signature power, attitude, and capability, the Hornet delivers a high-performance experience. A roomy and luxuriously appointed cabin seals the deal, enveloping your family with all sorts of creature comforts, ensuring a first-class riding experience. This makes the Dodge Hornet the perfect fit for those looking for a performance-oriented compact SUV.
Tremendous Power
The Hornet packs a serious punch with two high-octane engine options. The standard power plant is a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four that pushes out an immense 268 HP and 295 pound-feet of torque. This muscle propels the base Hornet to 60 in just 6 seconds, making merging and passing an effortless affair. Moreover, it can tow up to 2,000 pounds, enhancing its practicality.
If you need even more kick, the Hornet R/T’s plug-in hybrid combines a turbocharged 1.3-liter inline-four with a 90-kW electric motor to produce 288 HP and 383 lb-ft of torque. This setup rockets the Hornet to 60 mph in just 5 seconds, making it the fastest CUV on the market.
Spectacular Handling
The Dodge Hornet is easily the most fun-to-drive vehicle in its class, thanks to the host of high-performance features it can be equipped with. Standard all-wheel drive allows it to put its tremendous amounts of torque to good use, ensuring unrelenting traction, and resulting in phenomenal stability even at high speeds. Coupled with a brake-actuated limited slip differential and front and rear anti-roll bars, the Hornet offers outstanding grip and balance, making high-speed maneuvers feel effortless.
The smooth-shifting 9-speed automatic transmission is thoroughly engaging via column-mounted paddle shifters, while the speed-sensing rack-and-pinion steering is precise and communicative, making the car feel like an extension of your limbs. Brembo brakes ensure confident stopping power, while the strut and multi-link suspension with gas-pressurized shocks absorbs road imperfections effortlessly for a smooth, comfortable ride.
Spacious and Luxurious Interior
The Hornet is one of the roomiest options in its category, offering nearly 100 cubic feet of passenger space and up to 55 cubic feet of cargo volume, easily accommodating five adults while providing ample room for their gear. To ensure a premium riding experience, it can be outfitted with upscale amenities such as a sunroof, heated and ventilated seats, premium leather upholstery, a 10.25-infotainment touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a premium 14-speaker Harman Kardon sound system.
