Disrupting the compact utility vehicle (CUV) segment, the Hornet combines muscular styling with best-in-class standard performance, featuring a multi-energy powertrain roster and an array of class-exclusive performance features. This model stands out as a true game-changer, offering a blend of electrified power and traditional muscle. The new Hornet R/T plug-in hybrid version provides an impressive all-electric range of up to 53 kilometres while delivering exhilarating performance. On the other hand, the Hornet GT comes equipped with a standard turbocharged powertrain that outperforms its competitors, ensuring every drive is memorable.
The 2024 Dodge Hornet is at the forefront of automotive technology, offering a blend of advanced driver assistance systems and user-friendly infotainment options. It features a 12.3-inch digital cockpit cluster and a 10.25-inch Uconnect 5 infotainment system, providing 22.5 inches of combined display space. These systems offer customizable layouts, wireless connectivity, and integrated Amazon Alexa for seamless in-vehicle interaction.
Safety and convenience technologies are a priority in the Hornet, with standard Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) such as Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Support System, and Blind Spot Detection. The Hornet also offers optional Level 2 autonomous driving features in the Tech Pack, enhancing safety and driving comfort. With these cutting-edge technologies, the Dodge Hornet not only provides exhilarating performance but also ensures a safe, comfortable, and connected driving experience.
The Dodge Hornet's exterior design exudes a muscular and dynamic presence, setting a new standard in the compact utility vehicle segment. It features a distinctive “mail slot”-style grille and integrated heat extractors on the hood, presenting a performance-focused appearance. LED reflectors and unique daytime running lights enhance its aggressive stance. The vehicle's width is accentuated by a unique taillamp design with an illuminated Dodge Rhombi logo, a first for Dodge vehicles. The Hornet further distinguishes itself with matte black lower cladding and rear valance, with the R/T model boasting dual exhaust ports and exclusive Abyss painted cladding.
Incorporating performance-oriented design elements, the Hornet's appearance is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The body lines seamlessly integrate into its overall design, creating a cohesive and striking look. Its performance heritage is further emphasized through optional packages like the Blacktop Package for a sleek, blacked-out look, and the Track Pack that adds sportier elements such as 20-inch wheels and Alcantara sport seats. These features ensure the Hornet stands out not only for its performance but also for its bold and distinct design.
The interior of the 2024 Dodge Hornet is a fusion of comfort, style, and technology, designed with a driver-focused approach. The cockpit is angled towards the driver, enhancing the driving experience with easily accessible controls and displays. The instrument panel features a wrapped and stitched mid-bolster, extending across the dashboard, adding visual width and a premium feel. Red stitching accents flow throughout the black interior, including the seats and armrest, creating a cohesive and sporty design language. The ignition control is prominently placed on the console, and additional performance controls are integrated into the flat-bottom steering wheel.
For those seeking a more luxurious experience, the Hornet offers the Plus models with full leather seating, ventilated front seats, and a sunroof, among other premium features. The Track Pack option brings class-exclusive Alcantara seats with unique “red crust” accents, further enhancing the sporty ambiance. Leather seating is standard in the R/T Plus and GT Plus models, with an option for red leather seats. This combination of high-quality materials and thoughtful design elements creates an interior space that is both inviting and exhilarating, perfectly complementing the Hornet's performance credentials.
