Dodge Ends Hornet Production After Three Model Years

The company cited tariff-driven shifts in U.S. policy as the reason.

Overview

  • Stellantis confirmed the Italy-built Dodge Hornet is no longer being produced, referencing “shifts in the policy environment.”
  • Production had been paused in July 2025 to assess U.S. tariff impacts, with reports indicating roughly a 25% levy on such imports.
  • U.S. sales fell 54% in 2025 to 9,365 units after inventories swelled, including a reported 517-day supply and subsequent heavy incentives.
  • Dodge pledged continued owner support, including service, warranty coverage and sustained parts supply for Hornet models.
  • With Hornet gone, Dodge’s U.S. lineup narrows to Charger and Durango, while Alfa Romeo says a facelifted Tonale remains on track for the U.S. in 2026 and dealers are discounting remaining Hornet stock.
