Given the reputation Dodge has garnered for the power and reliability of their vehicles, the all-new 2024 Dodge Hornet R/T has a lot to live up to, considering that it’s the carmaker’s first foray into the world of electric vehicles. How then, do the Dodge Hornet R/T specs compare to those of its gas-powered counterpart, the Dodge Hornet GT? And what engine drives the performance of each respective Dodge Hornet model?
In this overview of the Dodge Hornet specs and performance, we’ll describe the capabilities of the GT and R/T, as told through the Dodge Hornet engine that sits underneath their respective hoods. We’ll also touch on some performance-related highlights that might be relevant to you on the streets of Overland Park, so let’s get started!
Depending on whether you opt for the gas-powered GT or the hybrid R/T, the engine that powers your Hornet will be the Hurricane4 2.0L 4-cylinder Turbo or the 1.3L 4-cylinder Turbo PHEV, respectively:
Hurricane4 2.0L 4-Cylinder Turbo Engine (GT, GT Plus only)
1.3L 4-Cylinder Turbo PHEV Engine (R/T, R/T Plus only)
As you can see, the Dodge Hornet R/T specs and capabilities are very similar to the Dodge Hornet GT specs, though the R/T can switch to all-electric mode to squeeze out an additional 32 miles of range. With it, the EPA estimates that the hybrid R/T has an impressive total range of 360 miles, while the EPA estimates that the gas-powered GT tops out at 324 miles on a full tank.
Despite this, the Dodge Hornet GT specs are still rather impressive for a crossover – J.D Power, for example, estimates that the average CUV outputs 200 hp, which the GT easily outpaces! Plus, no matter which you choose, they both have the range to get you to and from Gardner with minimal refueling stops.
