The plug-in-hybrid Hornet R/T's claim to fame is that 33-mile electric driving range. That's mileage you can really use — if you keep your Hornet PHEV plugged in when you're not using it, you could conceivably go months between gas tank refills. Aside from that aspect, the base Hornet GT is a better value. The R/T costs $10k more and provides essentially the same acceleration.
