2025 Hornet Trim Features, Pricing, and Key Insights!
The compact utility segment just got more exciting with the latest edition of this performance-first SUV. Built with punchy turbo power and loaded with muscle-inspired style, the 2025 lineup gives drivers a chance to choose between two distinct personalities: the entry-level GT and the more refined GT Plus. While both models share a confident stance and responsive drive, the real difference lies in the features and feel. Let’s explore how these two trims compare.
Power Meets Personality in Every Trim
At the core of both the GT and GT Plus is a 2.0-litre Hurricane4 turbo engine. It delivers 268 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, combined with a nine-speed automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drive. This provides both trims with quick acceleration and a confident grip on all types of roads, from paved highways to snowy backroads. Performance-wise, they’re nearly identical—but once you step inside, the experience starts to shift.
What Sets GT Apart?
The GT is made for drivers who want aggressive style and driving dynamics without the extra frills. It comes with performance-tuned suspension, dual exhaust tips, 17-inch silver aluminum wheels, and a sport-first stance. Inside, you’ll find a driver-focused cockpit with cloth seating, a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, and a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system. It offers wireless smartphone connectivity, Heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel and Amazon Alexa integration, keeping the cabin modern and intuitive.
GT Plus: Premium Feel with More Tech
Move up to the GT Plus, and you get everything in the GT, plus added luxury and convenience. The seats are finished in leather with heat and ventilation for front passengers, and there’s also a power liftgate for easier cargo access. A premium Harman Kardon® sound system comes standard, along with a built-in navigation system and wireless charging pad. This trim is ideal for those who want top-tier tech and comfort in a performance SUV.
Subtle Changes, Strong Recognition
While there are no major design overhauls for 2025, both trims feature enhanced aerodynamics and updated interior textures that improve the overall feel. The Hornet continues to grab attention across Canada, recently earning praise for its standout style and value. Between 2022 and 2024, it was recognized as a Top Compact CUV to Watch by multiple publications and earned nods for Best New Performance Utility Vehicle in its segment.
Which One Fits Your Drive?
If your priority is a thrilling performance at a great entry price, the GT delivers more than expected. But if your ideal ride includes luxury finishes and enhanced tech, the GT Plus adds enough to make it worth the upgrade. Either way, both models offer a fresh approach to everyday driving—packed with power and wrapped in style.
