Used 2024 Dodge Hornet for Sale nearEdmonton, AB

How much does the 2024 Dodge Hornet cost?

Prices have softened 13.50% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 341 listings available, which suggests you have a reasonable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2024 Dodge Hornet a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Dodge Hornet earns a 5/5 user rating and a 7.2/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Technology at 9/10.

The Hornet fits you well if you want a compact crossover with a sporty identity, standard all-wheel drive, and a more distinctive look than many small utility vehicles. Its four-cylinder powertrains and available plug-in hybrid setup also make it appealing if you want lower emissions or better efficiency without giving up a performance-minded feel.

The trade-offs are clear: the back seat is claustrophobic, cargo space is limited, and the R/T trim is poor value. Even so, 25.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2024 Dodge Hornet reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The Hornet is positioned as a modern, well-equipped compact crossover, and its standard feature set supports that impression. Its performance setup is also broad, with a four-cylinder gas model and a plug-in hybrid option, so you can choose the version that best matches your driving needs.

It also includes a strong list of standard driver-assistance features, which can help reduce day-to-day stress and may support confidence over time. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that the more complex plug-in hybrid setup can bring more systems to consider than the simpler gas model.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Dodge Hornet?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Hornet is sold in GT, GT Plus, R/T, and R/T Plus trims. The GT and GT Plus use the regular gas engine, while the R/T and R/T Plus use the plug-in hybrid powertrain. The interior feels more modern than you may expect from Dodge, and the test vehicle’s Alcantara upholstery and sporty cabin details show how much the higher trims can add. The base trims are the ones to watch if you want the strongest value, while the R/T trim is called poor value.
• Powertrain: The GT uses a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 268 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, plus a nine-speed automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drive. The R/T adds a 1.3-litre turbocharged four-cylinder, a 15.5-kWh battery, and two electric motors for 288 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. The GT requires premium fuel, and the R/T is heavier because of its battery.
• Safety package: Standard equipment includes automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control. A more advanced adaptive cruise control system with traffic-sign recognition is available, and level 2 autonomous driving functions can be added with the Tech Pack.
• Infotainment: You get a 10.25-inch touchscreen with UConnect 5, a 12.3-inch digital driver information display, wireless Android Auto, wireless Apple CarPlay, and over-the-air-style personalization through user profiles and widgets. A premium Harman Kardon audio system and wireless phone charger are also available on the test vehicle.
• Fuel efficiency: The GT is rated at 11.2 L/100 km in the city, 8.2 L/100 km on the highway, and 9.9 L/100 km combined. The R/T PHEV is rated at 3.1 litres-equivalent per 100 kilometres in hybrid mode.

Which 2024 Dodge Hornet trim should I buy?

The 2024 Dodge Hornet is offered in 4 trim levels: GT, GT Plus, R/T, and R/T Plus.

Here's the short version:

• GT: This is the best-value starting point if you want the Hornet’s standard all-wheel drive, strong power output, and core tech without paying for the plug-in hybrid hardware. It gives you the Hornet’s main personality at the lowest cost.
• GT Plus: Choose this if you want a more upscale version of the gas model and are willing to pay more for added equipment. It makes sense if you want more comfort and convenience features than the GT.
• R/T: This is the performance-oriented plug-in hybrid, with more power, electric driving capability, and the most advanced powertrain in the lineup. It suits you if you want the electrified setup, but it is not the value pick.
• R/T Plus: This is the most expensive version and adds more equipment on top of the R/T. It makes sense only if you specifically want the top-spec plug-in hybrid experience.

The safety package is strong across the lineup, with standard driver-assistance features and additional advanced functions available on higher-spec equipment.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Dodge Hornet?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 25.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 341 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.50% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $36,268 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Dodge Hornet's resale value?

The current average of $36,268 CAD sits slightly below last year's $41,930 CAD.

That decline suggests the Hornet is currently in a softer pricing phase, which can be good news if you are buying now but less favourable if you are planning to sell soon. If prices remain under pressure, future sellers may need to be more flexible on asking price to stay competitive.

The good news for resale is that the Hornet has a distinctive identity, standard all-wheel drive, and strong technology, all of which can help it stand out in the used market. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Dodge Hornet safe?

The 2024 Dodge Hornet has not yet been evaluated or crash-tested by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) or the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Standard safety features include automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control. You can also get a more advanced adaptive cruise control system with traffic-sign recognition, and the Tech Pack adds level 2 autonomous driving functions with intelligent speed assist and lane-tracing assist.

Should I buy a 2024 Dodge Hornet or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 25.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.50% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2024 Hornet stands out for its standard all-wheel drive, impressive technology, and available plug-in hybrid powertrain.

The bottom line: If you want the Hornet’s strongest mix of technology, standard AWD, and current market softness, the 2024 is the one to target. If you are especially price-sensitive, keep shopping for the best-listed example and focus on the trims that deliver the most value rather than the most expensive plug-in hybrid versions.
