2023 Dodge Hornet – Overview and What’s New in Provost

With the release of the 2023 Hornet, Dodge will once again compete in the compact crossover segment. Dodge has decided to share a base with a Stellantis-company relative, the Alfa Romeo Tonale, rather than re-skin a Jeep Compass like it did with the unpopular Caliber. The base model has a turbocharged four-cylinder producing 268 hp, paired with an automatic nine-speed and all-wheel drive; the R/T variant, however, is a plug-in hybrid producing 288 hp and allowing for more than 30 miles of electric driving. The Hornet will be the most technologically advanced vehicle in the Dodge portfolio, with cutting-edge technology, including a digital display, Uconnect 5 software, and autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian and bicycle detection as standard equipment.
The Dodge Hornet will be a brand-new model that will be introduced into the lineup. It will be positioned right under the mid-sized Durango. This tiny SUV will go up against other vehicles in its class such as the VW Taos, Mazda CX-30, and Kia Seltos. For 2023, the Hornet is being offered in two trim levels: R/T PHEV and GT. However, further trims may be offered in the future.
