Blue Ribbon Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram

Nov 8, 2024

The 2024 Dodge Hornet is proof that bigger is not always better. This compact crossover utility vehicle leads the way with its outstanding performance, well-appointed interior, and use of innovative tech. We bring you the details of the four trim levels to help you find the Hornet that will elevate your lifestyle.

1. GT

If you feel the need for speed, the GT is the Hornet for you. Hiding beneath the hood is a 2.0-liter Hurricane4 turbocharged engine which kicks out 268 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. With the ability to hit a top speed of 140 mph, this gas-powered base trim earns the accolade of the fastest CUV in its class.

The Hornet has the looks to complement its achievements. The GT boasts sleek curves, a distinctive hornet-nest-inspired gloss-black grille, 17-inch silver aluminum wheels, and LED headlamps, taillights, and daytime running lamps. Inside is equally as slick, with its leatherette-lined upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and six-way adjustable front seats.

Tech Highlights

Every Hornet is fitted with Dodge’s Uconnect infotainment system, giving you a 10.25-inch ​touchscreen ​with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Drivers also receive welcome assistance from a comprehensive suite of driver-assist technologies, including blind-spot monitoring, rear parking sensors, and forward collision warning and mitigation.

2. GT Plus

Building on the GT, the GT Plus enhances the ride by gaining a KONI Frequency Selective Dampening Suspension for improved handling and stability. The more luxurious interior is now decked out in leather, and a configurable 12.3-inch cluster display lets drivers choose the information they wish to view. An upgrade to the Uconnect system introduces integrated navigation, ensuring you’ll never get lost around Sallisaw’s streets.

3. R/T

Next up is the R/T, which models itself on the GT but electrifies the power by swapping the gas engine for a more efficient plug-in hybrid powertrain with an EPA-estimated range of 360 miles.

By upping the horsepower to 288 and the torque output to 383 pound-feet, the R/T has earned the title of the most powerful plug-in hybrid CUV, shooting from 0 to 60 in a pulse-racing 5.6 seconds. And, if you need an extra power boost, engage the R/T’s PowerShot function for an additional 30 ponies for up to 15 seconds.

4. R/T Plus

Finally, we have the R/T Plus which brings together the hybrid capabilities of the R/T with the GT Plus’ luxurious and advanced features. The addition of 18-inch gray aluminum wheels also makes the R/T Plus the sportiest-looking Hornet in the nest.
