2024 Dodge Hornet Hybrid Drive Modes

The 2024 Dodge Hornet R/T Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle introduces an advanced Hybrid Mode as its default setting, seamlessly integrating the power of the 1.3L Turbo engine and an electric motor. This intelligent mode optimizes efficiency and performance by automatically transitioning between electric and gas power based on dynamic factors such as battery level, driving conditions, and driver input. The result is an impressive EPA estimated total range of 360 miles, offering a driving experience that prioritizes both environmental consciousness and exhilarating performance. With a remarkable EPA-estimated combined fuel economy of 77 MPGe, equivalent to a gasoline car achieving 77 miles per gallon, the Hybrid Mode sets a new standard for eco-friendly driving without compromising on power.

In the 2024 Dodge Hornet R/T Plug-in Hybrid, the Electric Mode takes eco-friendly driving to the next level by prioritizing nearly zero tailpipe emissions. With an EPA-estimated 32 miles of all-electric driving range on a full charge, this mode offers a silent and smooth driving experience, making it perfect for city commutes, short trips, or scenarios where minimizing noise and emissions is essential. Operating at a maximum top speed of 84 mph, Electric Mode not only contributes to a cleaner environment but also ensures a dynamic and efficient electric driving experience. Once the electric range is depleted, the vehicle seamlessly transitions to Hybrid Mode, providing a versatile and sustainable driving solution.

The 2024 Dodge Hornet R/T Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle introduces the innovative eSave Mode, a strategic feature designed to manage battery charge for optimal efficiency. This mode offers two sub-modes: Passive eSave, maintaining the battery at a chosen percentage to reserve electric power for specific situations, such as navigating emissions-restricted zones later in the journey. Active eSave utilizes the gas engine to actively charge the battery up to the chosen percentage, ensuring a reliable source of electric power when needed. Whether preserving electric power for specific scenarios or actively charging the battery for upcoming demands, eSave Mode empowers drivers with flexibility and control over their hybrid driving experience, adding a new dimension of efficiency to the 2024 Dodge Hornet.

The powertrain of the 2024 Dodge Hornet R/T Plug-in Hybrid marries cutting-edge technology with legendary performance, offering the best of both worlds.
