Dodge Hornet (USA / CAN)

Transfer case fluid capacity & service interval

Dodge Hornet (USA / CAN) requires Transfer case fluid with a capacity of 0,4 liter. Service intervals consist of a check every 40000 miles or 48 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications
Hornet 1.3 PHEV (2023- )
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 0,4 liter
  • Check 40000 miles/ 48 months
Hornet 2.0 (2022- )
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 0,4 liter
  • Check 40000 miles/ 48 months

Additional Notes

  • Both the Dodge Hornet 1.3 PHEV and the 2.0 share an identical transfer case fluid capacity of 0.4 liter, which is a relatively small volume consistent with a compact transfer case unit rather than a larger truck-style assembly.
  • The 0.4 liter figure represents a service fill capacity, meaning the amount of fluid the transfer case holds during normal operation rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill quantity.
  • Under normal use conditions, the transfer case fluid interval for both configurations is set at 40,000 miles or 48 months, whichever comes first, reflecting a time-and-distance combined threshold.
  • The interval specification calls for a fluid check at 40,000 miles or 48 months rather than a mandatory replacement, meaning the service action at that point is inspection-based under normal conditions.
  • Despite the powertrain difference between the 1.3 PHEV and the 2.0 gasoline engine, the transfer case fluid capacity and service interval are identical across both configurations at 0.4 liter and 40,000 miles or 48 months.
  • The 1.3 PHEV variant carries a starting year of 2023, while the 2.0 carries a starting year of 2022, making the gasoline model the earlier introduction of the two in the Dodge Hornet lineup for the USA and CAN markets.
