The Dodge Hornet is about to be officially a go. Dodge’s Euro B-segment entrant will be produced with Chinese automaker Chery, and won’t have a Chrysler-branded counterpart. The show car, from the 2006 Geneva show, had a supercharged 4-cylinder with 170 hp, and got to 60 in 6.7 seconds. Autocar believes the production version may bow as early as this September at the Frankfurt Motor Show, though we think that’s a bit optimistic.
The good thing is that the Hornet’s impending production is part of Chrysler’s 3-year, $3-billion product renewal program, which has been “confirmed” since Cerberus bought the company. Though it will likely debut at a European auto show, we have high hopes that Chrysler will bring its Chinese-built B-car to the U.S., as well.
