Built on the same platform as the Alfa Romeo Tonale, the new-for-2023 Hornet is Dodge’s latest SUV. This compact-sized model will face stiff competition in Canada, but it manages to stand out with a potent 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine producing 268 horsepower and 295 lb-ft. of torque. And get this: the Hornet also comes in a plug-in hybrid variant with a 15,5kWh battery providing a zero-emission range of about 50 km.
