2024 Model Redesign Year

The Dodge Hornet shares components with the Alfa Romeo Tonale, itself based on the mediocre Jeep Compass. The R/T and R/T Plus are the two trims offered as plug-in hybrids. All-wheel drive is standard. A 1.3-liter turbocharged engine is standard, and drives the front wheels, while an electric motor powers the rear, producing a combined 288 hp. The EPA estimates 32 miles of electric drive. We got 29 mpg overall in our tests of the similar Tonale with the same powertrain when it operates as a hybrid.

The ride is stiff, the cabin is loud, and the interior is a bit low rent. Handling is rather mundane, lacking the sporty edge. The driving position is compromised because of a stretched arms, bent knees posture. Controls are mostly user-friendly, thanks to Stellantis' UConnect infotainment system. 2025 was the final year for the Hornet.

2024 Model Redesign Year

The Dodge Hornet shares components with the new Alfa Romeo Tonale, itself based on the mediocre Jeep Compass. The R/T is a plug-in hybrid that reflects the sole powertrain in the Tonale. A 1.3-liter turbocharged engine drives the front wheels, while an electric motor powers the rear, giving a combined, well integrated 288 hp and standard all-wheel drive. The EPA estimates 32 miles of electric drive and fuel economy of 29 mpg combined when it operates as a hybrid. The ride is stiff, the cabin is loud, and the interior is a bit low rent. Handling is rather mundane, lacking the sporty edge.

AEB with pedestrian detection, AEB highway, BSW, RCTW, LKA, and LDW are standard. 2025 was the final year for the Hornet.
