1. Class-Beating Power
No crossover utility vehicle can hold a torch to the Hornet’s power and performance. Dodge offers its class-leading CUV with two different powertrains, each outstanding in their own ways.
At the heart of the hybrid R/S models is a 1.4-liter PHEV that produces 383 pound-feet of torque. Engage the exclusive PowerShot feature, and you unleash an additional 30 horsepower for up to 15 seconds, giving you 288 ponies to play with. This eco-friendly hybrid powertrain propels the Hornet from 0 to 60 in just 5.6 seconds, making it the quickest CUV in the segment.
2. Unmatched Speed
The R/T may be quick, but it’s the GT trim that lifts the trophy for being the fastest. Each GT model boasts a gas powertrain consisting of an all-wheel-drive layout, a 268-horsepower 2.0-liter Hurricane4 turbo engine, and a nine-speed automatic transmission which pushes the Hornet to a top speed of 140 mph.
3. Driver-Centric Cockpit
Sliding into the driver’s seat is like entering a cockpit designed just for you. Drivers can configure the interior to fit their stature thanks to a six-way adjustable seat and a tilt and telescoping flat-bottomed steering wheel. Everything you need, including the shift knob and start button, are positioned for ease of use. The 12-inch instrument cluster is perfectly placed and is fully customizable, letting you choose how information is displayed.
4. Uconnect Infotainment System
Every Hornet comes with Dodge’s advanced Uconnect system. The 10.25-inch touchscreen that acts as the infotainment hub is angled towards the driver. Bluetooth technology lets you wirelessly connect your smartphone via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The system also lets you save different user profiles, meaning you and four other drivers can begin every journey with your personalized infotainment setup.
5. Advanced Assistive Technologies
Dodge equips the Hornet with a comprehensive set of driver-assist technologies. Enhancing the driving experience and helping improve safety are standard features, such as emergency braking, pedestrian detection, forward collision alert, blind-spot monitoring, and lane keep assist. The Hornet also features rear sensors and a rearview camera to provide welcome assistance with parking and backing up.
These are just a few of the outstanding features Dodge has incorporated into the new Hornet to guarantee it reigns supreme in the busy world of CUV.
