Additional Notes
- The Dodge Hornet 2.0 carries a transaxle automatic fluid capacity of 6 liters under normal use conditions.
- A transaxle combines the transmission and drive axle into a single unit, which is why fluid capacity figures for front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive platforms like the Hornet are expressed as a single fill volume rather than separate transmission and differential quantities.
- The 6-liter figure for the 2.0 engine represents a service fill capacity, meaning the volume required when servicing the transaxle during normal operation rather than a full overhaul drain.
- The 1.3 PHEV variant specifies fluid level as "between min and max" rather than a fixed volume, meaning the correct fill level is verified by reading the fluid level against the dipstick or fill port markers rather than measuring a set quantity.
- The two Hornet configurations carry different fluid specification approaches: the 2.0 uses a fixed-volume fill figure, while the 1.3 PHEV relies on a min-to-max range check, reflecting a difference in how each transaxle's fluid level is assessed during service.
