Dodge Hornet creates a buzz
Dodge seems unable to put a foot wrong at motor shows at the moment and Geneva is no exception.
After the wow factor of the Charger at Detroit, Dodge unveiled the Hornet to show that it can produce great small cars as well as muscle cars.
Even so, the Hornet still packs a 170bhp sting, thanks to a supercharged 1.6-litre engine.
Mixing supermini size, clap-hand side doors and some MPV touches, the Hornet is aimed at younger buyers and its appearance at Geneva hints that Dodge is serious about breaking into Europe's lucrative small car market.
