![]() The exterior has plenty of muscle-car cues as well. Additionally, the Hornet has available gesture control, TomTom navigation, Amazon Alexa voice assistant, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. There is also a 10.25-inch touchscreen center display that contains the expected things like navigation, but also can display additional gauges, and a G-meter. You can make the speedometer and tachometer smaller to put a nav screen in the middle, for example. It’s a very cool detail.Īhead, you have a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster that can be configured in multiple ways. My test car had very unique black Alcantara seats (Dodge was very keen to tell us it uses real, name-brand Alcantara) with perforations in them revealing a red layer below the black. The primary and secondary touch-points of the car are well-addressed, and there is thoughtful red stitching here and there to remind you of the car’s sporty attitude. The quarters are definitely on the cozy side for a CUV of this exterior size, but it’s by no means cramped. See how the Dodge Hornet compares to rivals from Hyundai, Mazda, and Kiaĭriving notes aside, the Hornet is a nice place to be. It’s similar to the boost system found on the Genesis GV60. The system works best on a full charge, but can be used as long as the battery is charged past 40 per cent. After use, you’ll have to wait another 15 seconds before you can try it again. This shaves 1.5 seconds off the zero-to-60-mph (-96-km/h) time: when used, it can move the Hornet to 60 mph (96 km/h) in just 5.6 seconds. When activated, it gives the driver a 15-second burst of 30 extra horsepower. The R/T also has what Dodge calls “PowerShot”. The R/T uses a 15.5-kWh 306V battery, and has an electric-only driving range of 50 km. These numbers add up to more than Dodge’s quoted combined output, but I assume complicated PHEV things are the reason why. A rear-mounted electric motor contributes 121 hp to the party, and there is a smaller motor mounted between the engine and transmission that adds 44 hp. The R/T is the plug-in hybrid version, and it uses a 175-hp 1.3L gas engine in conjunction with two electric motors to make a combined 288 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque.
