Dodge is ensuring their new vehicle lineup is robust and hoping to reach more segments this decade than the brand has the previous two decades. Among the new options that has found success, one new entry has shined; the Dodge Hornet. Among the newest entries in 2023, few have become as hot an item as the 2023 Dodge Hornet. The all-new Hornet entry has earned a place on WardsAuto list for the 2023 10 Best Engines and Propulsion Systems award. Hornet brings a battery-electric ride with a raised MPG that will ensure greater profits for the coming decade. 

Foundation of Success Found With Hornet

Reaching new goals, the Hornet offers a propulsion system that provides more horsepower and torque over a 30 second span when owners need that extra jolt to move. Innovation has been paramount to the growth and leverage of the Dodge brand for years, especially with upgrades regarding speed. As many riders of Dodge vehicles will tell others, speed and power go so well together.

“Driving fun won’t ever go out of style, and the 1.3-liter turbo PHEV that powers the Dodge Hornet R/T, as well as other very successful models around the world, opens a new chapter for performance…Our global electrification strategy is in full execution mode and with it comes new levels of capability and performance, all geared toward powering class-leading products that deliver on our ambition for clean, safe and affordable mobility.” – Micky Bly, Stellantis head of global propulsion systems

WardsAuto is a well-known and revered automotive publication in the automobile industry. Publications have a direct impact on sales, and the promotion of good results is not only wanted, but expected by the Dodge brand today. Looking into the Hornet nest, this ride supports a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder sending 268 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque through a nine-speed automatic transmission.
