New Dodge Hornet for Sale in Mechanicsburg
With its comfortable, refined accommodations, excellent amenities, and bold style, the Dodge Hornet would already be a compelling option among compact crossovers. However, simply fitting in isn't one of the automaker's strong suits. So, the Dodge Hornet distinguishes itself by its performance, delivering a satisfying driving experience with potent powertrain options, balanced handling, and standard AWD. The Dodge Hornet is ideal for Mechanicsburg shoppers seeking a versatile and engaging daily driver that stands out for all the right reasons - and you can find it here at Ciocca Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Duncannon.
Performance
The Dodge Hornet delivers a level of performance uncommon in the compact crossover class. GT and GT Plus trim levels are propelled by a 2.0-liter turbo-four engine, producing a stout 268 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. A smooth-shifting 9-speed automatic transmission handles the gear changes, while the standard all-wheel-drive system ensures confident handling and control for various situations.
Plug-in Hybrid
In its R/T and R/T Plus variants, the Hornet upgrades to a plug-in hybrid - the first of its kind in a Dodge vehicle. The electric-assisted 1.3-liter turbo-four generates 288 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, while a 12.0-kWh battery helps achieve an EPA-estimated 77 MPGe (miles-per-gallon equivalent).1 It also provides an estimated 33 miles of electric-only range,1 letting you experience EV driving on your Mechanicsburg commute without relying solely on battery power.
The Dodge Hornet R/T takes as little as 2.5 hours to charge with Level 2 equipment (240-volt ), thanks to its 7.4-kW onboard charger. However, you don't necessarily need a special installation to enjoy plug-in hybrid benefits. Simply plug into a 120-volt household-style outlet to replenish that battery overnight (~7.5 hours).
Accommodations and Utility
The Dodge Hornet's interior is roomy, refined, and a pleasant place to spend time, whether commuting up Market Street or leaving town for a weekend getaway. The cabin exhibits stylish and modern design details, quality materials, and nicely cushioned, ergonomic seats. There's ample head and legroom for occupants in either row, with 27 cubic feet to spare to store your gear or groceries. When a Mechanicsburg outing or errands requires more cargo capacity, you can fold the rear seats to reveal 54.7 cubic feet.
The Hornet provides numerous comforts and conveniences, including standard features like cloth/leatherette combination upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control, rain-sensing wipers, and heated, power-folding mirrors. Moving up the trim ladder, you can enhance your Mechanicsburg drives with available amenities like:
- Heated and ventilated power-adjustable front seats
- Full leather upholstery
- Power sunroof
- Heated steering wheel
- Hands-free liftgate
- Wireless charging pad
Technology
The Dodge Hornet delivers excellent technology regardless of configuration. It comes standard with a 12-inch Driver Information Digital Cluster Display, letting you easily monitor important vehicle information, infotainment details, phone alerts, and available navigation. The 10.25-inch touchscreen is powered by the latest Uconnect® 5 system. It also includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, providing seamless access to smartphone features like hands-free calls, Google or Apple Maps, streaming media, your virtual assistant, and more.
While nothing can replace attentive driving, it's nice to know your car has your back in the event of the unexpected. The Dodge Hornet provides enhanced confidence and convenience with a full roster of assistive technologies, including standard driver aids like:
- Forward Collision Warning with Full Stop
- Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection
- LaneSense® with Lane Keep Assist
