The chassis feels aggressive, because it's an Alfa Romeo.

$30K for this high performance AWD car and you're complaining about no HUD?!?

Hornets are not selling well, local dealer is giving 5k, Dodge is kicking in 7500. Looks like you can get a pretty good deal right now.

I think so long as dodge continues to not make the same mistakes with the Hornet like they did with the Dart, it could 100% be a mainstay in the lineup for the next 10+ years.

It would be hard for me to care LESS about having a HUD. Big deal.

Alfa Romeo Tonale, not Stelvio. It's a different platform.

The GT are the best ones to buy because it’s 2.0 liters and 268 HP and if you have the time and the money you can modified it with engine tuner and upgrade the turbo many modifications you could do with the GT

This vehicle is a nice package, but because its basically an Alfa Romeo I dont think I could buy one because I'd be constantly worried about it falling apart.

The GT is $26K kinda considering it. How would it handle in the snow

I was going to get a hornet but i went with a jeep cherokee trail hawk instead.

MY wife is annoyed every time I say the Hornet is related to her Maserati Levante. The reviewers remarks about its driving characteristics is so like her Maserati. Aggressive, nervous and touchy. I love the Hornet.

HUD display. what about it? Sounds like a complaint when mentioning it's absence. How about mentioning how many hundreds of dollars you save on a non HUD windshield when it comes to replacing it. If you live any where near snow country and all the sand used on most highways in most states a pitted windshield is a common maintenance issue.

If you're going to keep mentioning Alfa Romeo at least get the damn car right. This car is the Tonale not the Stelvio. Who really cares about a HUD. I do not. Get over it.

To the auto technician who shoved the lift point covers in the trunk storage, thanks for the idea

I know you think that this is a dodge, but it is a Alpha Romeo!

I never use the head up display on my Tahoe. Too distracting having that shining on my windshield

The performance stats sound nice, but I would be a little concerned about the reliability of a Dodge/Fiat 4 cylinder turbo.
