Used Dodge Hornet: the years to buy and the years to skip
Every Dodge Hornet from 2024 to 2025: what each year typically sells for (about $23,000 to $26,000), its crash rating, and whether it's a year to target or skip. The best bets are 2024–2025.
2024–2025 Dodge Hornet
An Alfa Romeo Tonale-based compact crossover with standard all-wheel drive, a punchy turbo four and sporty handling.
Years to target: 2024–2025. It has a below-average reliability record.
| Year | Typical price | Verdict | Crash rating | Typical miles |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | $23,000 | Target | Not rated | ~25,000 |
| 2025 | $26,000 | Target | Not rated | ~15,000 |
Worth knowing
- Rear seat and cargo space are tight, early build quality drew complaints, and steep depreciation makes used examples cheap for a reason.
The trim we'd park in our garage
The GT Plus adds leather, a sunroof, upgraded audio and more driver aids, while the R/T plug-in hybrid adds about 30 miles of electric range and stronger acceleration.
On the test drive
Confirm all recalls have been completed and check that the infotainment and driver-assist systems work without warning lights. On a hybrid, ask for a battery health check.

Prices are typical dealer and private asking prices from used listings, collected in September and October 2026, for an average-mileage car. Years with too few listings are estimated from nearby years. Crash ratings, recalls and owner complaint counts come from NHTSA public records.
