So much so that we’ve gone ahead and written a review of it so that all our customers in and around the communities of Clarks Summit, Dickson City, and Dalton, PA, can learn more about this great vehicle and how it can improve their driving journeys.

2023 Dodge Hornet: Performance

The 2023 Dodge Hornet combines the best aspects of internal combustion with the on-demand power of electrification to become the most powerful compact utility vehicle in its segment. It uses Plug-in Hybrid architecture so that its terrific 1.3L Turbo 4-cylinder gasoline engine is combined with a segment-exclusive PowerShot that unlocks an additional 25 electric horsepower. At peak performance, the Hornet generates power outputs of 285 combined horsepower and 383 lb-ft of total torque. The efficiency of the engine is such that it can shave one second off its own 0 to 60 MPH launch time.

Dodge has indicated that the Hornet’s fuel range will be advantageous. From one charge, it can get an estimated 30 miles of electric range. This is great for those drivers who need the quick sting of the Hornet to get them to and from small errands or through city traffic. Its compact size works toward this fuel goal as it requires less fuel to get it moving.

2023 Dodge Hornet: Safety

Being part of the swarm means having access to power and being safeguarded while doing it. The 2023 Hornet comes with a bevy of safety and security features that offer impressive options that’ll have you revving the engine in excitement. The following systems are standard across all trims, which means you’ll always have access to these great safety measures.

Starting with Automatic Emergency Braking, which uses sensors at the front of the vehicle to engage the brakes when a possible collision is sensed. With Lane Support Warning, you’ll have no trouble staying in your lane because it can provide you with alerts when it notices you drifting out of your lane.

Especially useful is the dual combo of the Blind Spot Monitoring System with Rear Cross Path Detection. With these systems active and in play, you’ll have an extra set of eyes on the places you can’t always see, like your blind spots. You’ll no longer have to worry about another driver cruising in your shadow. When you’re home and preparing to go out, the Rear Cross Path Detection can alert you to the presence of other cars or pedestrians, giving you ample time to react appropriately.
