Dodge Hornet R/T PHEV
The 2023 Dodge Hornet R/T PHEV is taking the segment by storm with its combination of power and performance. With up to an estimated 50 kilometres of all-electric range thanks to its 15.5-kWh lithium-ion battery and an impressive 285+ horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque, it's no wonder that it's one of the most powerful utility vehicles in its class.
But that's not all - this "Head of Hive" also comes with an exclusive on-demand PowerShot feature for a boost of 25 additional horsepower, dramatically reducing the 0-97 km/h time by a full second for a 6.1-second sprint! Plus, standard 18-inch Graphite Grey wheels, Dodge-branded Brembo front fixed calipers, dual exhaust, steering-mounted paddle shifters and more make this electrified powerhouse an absolute must-have. With Sport Mode and three hybrid driving modes – Hybrid, Electric and E-Save – you can customize your ride every time. That kind of power will let you blaze your own trails while also helping you save on fuel costs.
Dodge Hornet GT
The 2023 Dodge Hornet GT is a gas-powered performance powerhouse. Featuring the segment's most powerful engine, the 2.0L Turbocharged Inline four-cylinder Hurricane 4 engine, it delivers an incredible 265+ horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque for a completely unrivalled driving experience. With Sport Mode, you'll have access to sharper throttle, optimized upshifts, tighter steering and an electronic limited slip differential to go from 0-97 km/h in 6.5 seconds - making it the quickest utility vehicle under $40K!
But that's not all; drivers also have fingertip control with a button on the performance-oriented flat-bottom steering wheel that enables them to choose between Sport and Standard drive modes for even greater precision. The 2023 Dodge Hornet GT is truly pushing the boundaries of performance power.
Design
The 2023 Dodge Hornet is making its mark on the segment with its muscular Dodge DNA design vocabulary and characteristic styling cues.

Inside, you'll find that the interior design aligns with the driver-centric feel of the entire Dodge lineup; centre stack controls, display screens and HVAC vents are all angled toward the driver for maximum comfort. But don't let its good looks fool you; this beast also swarms with best-in-class dynamic driving features such as Koni shocks, Brembo four-piston brake calipers, dynamic torque vectoring and more to optimize suspension, braking, steering and handling performance.
