Finally, Dodge is bringing the GLH nameplate back, after promising to do so in late 2022. The upcoming Hornet GLH is set to arrive later this year. Dodge CEO Matt McAlear confirmed the news in a roundtable interview with The Drive, stating, “[The Hornet GLH] was a concept, but you should see it this calendar year. Let’s leave it at that.”

For the love of all that is good, mate the 2.0 with the rear E-axle
 
The idea of the Hornet isn't bad being that it's the more performance-oriented option between vehicles like the Escape, the Trax and the Trailblazer. Truth is, while it's not as raw as it's predecessors, the Hornet is definitely in position to fill the niche of the SRT4 Caliber as it truly is the Sport Compact of the Compact Sport Utility Vehicle world. I do agree with Triple-T that a 2.0L Hurricane-4 should be the powertrain for the GLH and that 2.0L Hurricane-4 should be the 300+hp EVO version and mated to an 80hp rear EDM. Just saying.
 
I wonder if a business case exists for releasing a $28K Hornet SXT AWD with the 200hp 2.0L from the Compass alongside the GLH. Let the GLH drive showroom traffic, and then have something to offer when shoppers balk at the price.
 

Hornet GLH Package Is Coming, But Only for GT Trim​

GLH Package Returns with More Power and Performance​

Last week, we discussed how Dodge CEO Matt McAlear confirmed that the GLH package would finally be coming later this year. This comes as the vehicle was first teased in August 2022 at the Dodge Speed Weeks event at M1 Concourse in Pontiac, Michigan. However, the biggest news we’ve learned this week is that the package will supposedly be based only on the GT trim, leaving those who chose the high-performance plug-in hybrid (PHEV) R/T model out of luck—at least for now.

Now put you money where your mouth is. When this comes out, promote the HELL out of it. No pun intended here. That have been one of this company’s biggest mistakes over the years. If it’s ain’t a Jeep Ram or R/T, you see nothing. Advertise!!!
 
Maybe they are saving the higher horse power version for the GLHS version, it actually looks pretty good in white.
 
I won't be happy until the 2.0 is paired with the E-axle

Sure, but don’t use the base wheels. In fact, discontinue them altogether. The base wheels are hideous on this car and make it look like an economy car, not a “performance” focused CUV that can top $50k in some trims.
