Striding confidently into the era of electrification, Dodge has unveiled its first electrified performance vehicle, the all-new 2024 Dodge Hornet. With its audacious presence, the Hornet shakes up the burgeoning CUV sector, introducing a potent synthesis of Dodge's hallmark muscular design, unrivaled performance via a multi-energy powertrain line-up, and a wealth of unique performance attributes exclusive to its class.
The 2024 Dodge Hornet R/T stands as a landmark model for the marque, being Dodge’s inaugural electrified performance offering. This innovative vehicle blazes a trail for enthusiasts into Dodge's revered Brotherhood of Muscle. The Hornet R/T emerges as the segment's most potent utility vehicle, delivering 288 horsepower and a substantial 383 lb.-ft. of torque. Boasting an all-electric range of 32 miles, courtesy of a 15.5-kWh lithium-ion battery, the R/T also impresses with 77 MPGe and an overall range of 360 miles.
For those preferring a gas-powered model, the Dodge Hornet GT emerges as the industry's fastest and most powerful offering. Propelled by the Hurricane engine, a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder unit, the GT tops the segment's gas-powered engine category with a robust 268 horsepower and 295 lb.-ft. of torque.
Serving as the apex of the line-up, the "Head of Hive" 2024 Dodge Hornet R/T brings extra venom to the mix with its class-exclusive PowerShot feature. This on-demand function injects an additional 30 horsepower, enabling a 0 to 60 mph sprint in just 5.6 seconds. The Dodge Hornet GT, in Sport Mode, achieves the same feat in a mere 6.5 seconds.
Engineered with the adrenaline-chaser in mind, the 2024 Dodge Hornet flaunts a range of top-tier and exclusive dynamic driving features such as Koni shocks, Brembo four-piston brake calipers, dynamic torque vectoring, and more. Standard all-wheel drive for both the R/T and GT variants underscores the Hornet’s positioning as a CUV designed for those who crave a Dodge that performs, looks, and sounds the part.
The 2024 model year welcomes the Dodge Hornet R/T as Dodge's electrified performance debut, storming onto the scene with unrivaled power in the utility vehicle segment. The Hornet R/T provides 32 miles of all-electric range and an impressive 77 MPGe with a total range of 360 miles, courtesy of its 15.5-kWh lithium-ion battery.
Exclusive to the Hornet R/T performance hybrid is the on-demand PowerShot feature, which gives an extra surge of 30 horsepower, propelling the vehicle from 0 to 60 mph in a brisk 5.6 seconds. The Hornet R/T also offers a Sport Mode and three hybrid driving modes: Hybrid, Electric, and E-Save.
Enhancing the model's practicality, the Hornet R/T Plus and Hornet GT Plus have a standard hands-free liftgate functionality. Furthermore, the optional Tech Pack equips the vehicle with a Parallel and Perpendicular Park Assist System.
