This Year's Model Updates:

The HHR is an all-new compact wagon based on the Cobalt platform. Its retro styling is a throwback to the '49 Suburban.

Pros:
  • Smooth and quiet ride, lots of cargo space, attractive interior, excellent visibility, versatile sound system.
Cons:
  • Weak brakes, sloppy handling, engines lack low-end pull and refinement, tight shoulder room, out-of-reach window buttons, some cheap plastics.

    I love to drive this car a lot. I really like the look, ride, and workmanship. I rate this car high. Mine is black, and it gets a lot of positive comments. This is my first new car since 1979 and I would buy this car again.

    Love this car! Have owned it 3 weeks now. Weve taken 2 day trips in FL and averaged 32.3 MPG! In town average is 29 MPG. Compfy, quiet ride, room enough for all our stuff,& everyone crowds around to ooh and aah over it. Even my 80 year old parents can get in and out without help and our 29 yr old son is drooling over it. Cool styling, comfort, quiet, roomy, versitile, and good gas mileage. We got lots of options which really enhance the experience. Sunroof, OnStar, satellite radio, running board etc. Never thought Id want all that, but now I cant imagine not having them. You do have to use 91 octane gas which we achieve by alternating fill-ups at the 1/2 full point w/mid and high test.

    I bought the HHR to use it as a work vehicle because I haul a variety of odd objects on a daily basis. It carries a ton of stuff for such a compact vehicle. I soon found out that the HHR was much more than just a reasonably priced fuel sipping "stuff" hauler. Last week I was rear-ended by a full size Dodge cargo van. I was stopped but the van hit me so hard that I was pushed 20ft by the impact (with my brakes applied). I figured the tailgate would be in the back seat judging from such a hard hit but there was almost no visible damage other than some scuffs on the bumper. The Dodge could only be so lucky. Its bumper had to be pried off of its front wheels before it could even move.

    My HHR is black with the chrome grill, sunroof, XM-radio. I have enjoyed this car so much that when it is parked outside my business, people have come inside inquiring about it. Its that cute when you see it first hand. There is plenty of room inside. It handles great on the road and has a lot of power. I was quite surprised since I am used to driving a V-8. Its easier on the pocketbook when you have to purchase gas, especially these days. I am getting right at 20 miles in town, but the engine is not broke in yet and I am driving it in 100 + degree temperatures. Mine came equipted with a Pioneer sound system/equilizer and has more sound than I know what to do with. Love my 06 HHR.

    I have not had a bit of trouble with this vehicle. I just get lots of attention. The only problem so far was a flat tire and it was hard to find that size in stock in Cincinnati

  • So far, so good. - 2006 Chevrolet HHR

    While many people compare this car to a PT cruiser, there is more cargo space, and more wow factor with this car. Also, the auxillary input jack for mp3 players makes makes this cars sound system state-of-the-art. Sometimes I sit in my car when I am at home because it is so enjoyable. I run all errands for my wife, just so I can drive my car.

    Been waiting for six months to purchase. Only driven 400 miles so far ,but very happy with the whole package. Traded a Focus. The HRR has more power and is very comfortable. Styling is great, and I like it much more than the PT Cruiser. (Wife has one and I have driven both)

    The only thing I dont like is the drivers center armrest. It hangs down too low. I cant seem to convince GM it isnt quite right. It also plows a little bit when cornering a highway exit ramp a little above the recommended max.
