2024 Dodge Hornet Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Simple. Don’t Buy
If you enjoy towing your car and having the dealer tell you multiple times we have no idea what’s wrong with it, this is the car for you. Don’t listen to anyone telling you how great they are. Mine has now been in the shop at 22 miles, 134 miles and now sitting at 1900 at the dealer. It only made it from 134 to 1900 because I refused all updates. The dealer updated it and it that was the end of it running. Cars junk and they know it. Luckily my state has great lemon laws which is where I’m at now. Btw 2 neighbors are also in the same boat as me in my small town. 3 duds in the same neighborhood, come on.

A great value and way FUN!
With the recent discounts, this car is a great value. I just traded in my 5 year old Tesla Model 3 for the Hornet R/T Plus. It’s really FUN to drive in Sport Mode and I still get to drive electric for my daily commute. I bought the Mopar extended warranty for piece of mind. It also looks really cool and stands out in the sea of compact SUVs on the road today. This my family’s second PHEV — we have the Chrysler Pacifica and having the ability to switch between electric or gas is the best of both worlds.

Hornet GT Plus is an under rated vehicle.
Purchased a Hornet GT Plus AWD after looking at other brands like Honda, Toyota, Ford, Nissan, Infinity, VW, Volvo, Cadillac, Genesis, Audi, and a few others. Many of these brands are high priced and are selling with NO discounts or are inferior in many ways. Also, dealership staff at many are arrogant and rude. The Hornet is actually an Alfa Romeo and is made in the same factory. This is what gives it an upscale interior, superior performance and soul. The Hornet handles better, has VERY comfortable seats, has more horsepower and torque, and has loads of options included with the GT and GT plus packages that are expensive options on other vehicles. The ONLY drawback I can find is smaller cargo area. Did not like the R/T. Too heavy and not into current battery technology. Because these are selling slow, I was able to secure a $10,000 discount on a 2024. A steal at this price. After living with it for a while I would highly recommend people to look at this SUV if they are considering one. It is fun to drive and has many pluses other brands DO NOT have.

Very underrated vehicle!
After getting an amazing lease deal on an Alfa Romeo Tonale and loving the suv so much, 10 days later I got a Hornet RT with the black top package and track package. It's very sporty. The steering feel is perfect. I prefer the suede seats vs my Tonale leather seats. My wife prefers the leather. So to each their own. I think the Hornet's Suede drivers seat sits a bit lower, which is great for me being 6'1 and liking to sit low. The suede seats don't get a/c seats. That's the tradeoff. I have three child seats in back. Two forward facing and one booster. It all fits fine and the kids 8,5,2 1/2 are all good. 38" of rear legroom is 1/4" less than the Jeep PHEV lease that I am returning this week. The trunk space on the PHEV Hornet version is a little small, but it has an under compartment that is a good size. All in all for you should grab one while 2024 last. They are sitting on the lots and have crazy good $200-300 sign and drive leases based on the incentives you qualify for. Same for the Tonale but a touch higher msrp. They are both awesome! If I had one complaint, I wish you can get the Tech package with the Track Package, but it's one or the other. The tech package comes with 18" wheels and I think the 20's are much cooler with the red brake calipers. My Tonale has 20" rims and all the tech, but it's 4k higher msrp. I agree with Edmunds that the 20’s are louder on the highway, but it’s tolerable and looks better than 18’s I think
