Dodge Hornet : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dodge Hornet
The Dodge Hornet is a concept car mini MPV designed and developed by Dodge and revealed in 2006. It was Dodge's first attempt in a car this small and was expected to be released in 2010. The 2009 financial crisis and the restructuring of the Chrysler Group stopped further work. The development of a new compact car for Dodge was resumed using a Fiat sourced automobile platform. In late-2011, Dodge surprised industry pundits and insiders by naming the production version: Dart. ==Origin== The Hornet name originates with the Hudson Hornet that was introduced in 1951 by the Hudson Motor Car Company. The Hornets were over-engineered and over built, as well as equipped with a powerful engine and an innovative "step-down" chassis. Their overall road-ability of the Hornets made them unbeatable in competition on the dirt and the very few paved tracks during that era.〔 Hudson was the first automobile manufacturer to get involved in stock car racing.〔 The "Fabulous Hudson Hornet" quickly "dominated stock car racing in the early-1950s, when stock car racers actually raced stock cars." The Hornets swept the NASCAR title from 1951 to 1954. Nash Motors and Hudson merged in 1954 to form American Motors Corporation (AMC), and the large-sized Hornet line was marketed through 1957. The compact-sized AMC Hornet was the second car to use the Hornet name from 1970 to 1977. Rights to the "Hornet" nameplate then passed to Chrysler (Dodge's parent) with its acquisition of AMC in 1987.
