Who cares - certainly not me !
If MPG was a concern in choice of vehicles I wouldn't own a Hellcat & R/T Durango + the 400hp TT Infiniti

Not to mention, if I did want to get something with better MPG, it wouldn't be some warmed over Alpha POS !!!

I would being I'm not buying it for its good looks and 1/4 miles times. Pretty sad our Challenger R/T gets that kind of gas mileage and it is a performance car. I would say that is a fail

And that is for the lower spec regular engine.

The performance R/T with the NOS-like 'powershot' button hasn't even been rated yet. (although I think that one is a Hybrid)

In all fairness, I think it looks less bad than the Alfa it's based on.

Less bad but no good.

Let’s see the hybrid.

Let’s see the hybrid.

How much is the alpha version?

 

[Paladin06]

Yep, what he said.

Low bar, but yeah.

Jimmie....C'mon...WTF...that's like a guy sayin...well..my ugly wife looks better than her mother...

 

[DGatzby]

How much is the alpha version?

I have no idea.

 

[Confuzed1]

Looks a lot like the wife’s Kia Sportage….

 

[DavidKFla]

I have no idea.

I just looked. $40s to $80s.

 

[Jimmy N.]

I just looked. $40s to $80s.

That's reasonable. Anything that's under $100 and runs can't be all bad.

I guess they own the rights to the name “Hornet” from the old AMC Hornet? That was a pretty car too! Although, the SC/360 Hornet was not too bad.

Saw this commercial tonight and 1st thing I thought dodge even blew using this theme song for the hornet

 

[vortecd]

For those that don't know what above music is

 

[ButterDaGreat?]

Funny. Worse mileage and you need to run premium fuel compared to the Jeep Compass with the same engine. I hope this crossover is as successful as the Dodge Caliber...
