Overview & Reviews

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

• Smooth and quiet ride, lots of cargo space, attractive interior, excellent visibility, versatile sound system.

• Weak brakes, sloppy handling, engines lack low-end pull and refinement, tight shoulder room, out-of-reach window buttons, some cheap plastics.

  Happy HHR owner - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By doug byron - July 1 - 1:06 pm

  I have 4,000 miles on my HHR. It is a fun little vehicle to drive. A lot of people check the car out when I have it parked in the public. I guess the novelty hasnt wore off yet. I love the retro styling. I feel I got a lot of car for the buck.

  Excellent job by GM - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By xray19050 - June 27 - 7:40 pm

  The best new car I ever purchased. GM has put their best effort into this Chevrolet and it shows! A 1000 mile trip to North Carolina was a pleasure. The XM Radio is a good travelling companion. Excellent mileage about 28.5 per gallon,and plenty of admiring looks from other people on the interstate!

  I love my HHR - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By Sarah - June 23 - 9:33 pm

  Such a comfortable drive, Ive only had it a few weeks and Ive got no real complaints. The seats are quite comfy, although the headrest adjuster button is difficult to easily get at. I wish the panel between the front seats was higher, it is low for reaching down. The gas guage dial - my other GM cars read from empty (left) to full (right), this car is the opposite, its not a big deal once you know it, it just surprised me a few km into picking it up from the dealer the gas warning light went on and I thought the tank was full, thank goodness I was in the city.

  Great Car This HHR - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By Mel - June 22 - 11:10 am

  We find this car to be great. Handles great, tight steering around curves, holds well around curves, little blind spot/s, leather interior, heated seats, great sound sysytem, plenty storage, luggage rack, 2 batteries, easy access to spare tire and just easy to drive. So far the gas mileage is good and so far fun to drive.

  HHR? I want one of those! - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By Pam Borden - June 5 - 7:13 pm

  This car really gets attention- mostly from men. Five times I have been approached and asked questions. People stare at it. It is a beautiful bright blue and looks like a small truck but it is really a very cool station wagon in disguise! Peppy 4 cyl engine gets decent mileage around 26 mpg. It is very comfortable. Roof racks have to be factory installed but running boards can be added by the dealer if desired. It has a neat glove box in the middle of the dashboard that the driver can easily reach. It is full of neat little surprises like maplights that dont shine in the drivers eyes. 5 adults can ride comfortably in the car.

  Beautiful Little Car - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By Fred - May 28 - 1:56 pm

  This is the first new vehicle that I have bought since my 1987, which I still have. As far as I an concerend, its the best one I have ever bought. Nice firm ride and not to harsh,but feels very stable on the road. Have not had one problem with the vehicle at all. The wife just loves to car and she says its just the right size for her. All body fits are good and the paint finish is flawless. I get just about what the gas rating says. 23 city and 30 highway. It is really a fun car to drive with all the attention getting I expected. Questions from people at the grocery store, gas stations and malls. Would buy another one just for me it I had the money....

  Great Car For All Ages - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By Keith - May 20 - 6:46 pm

  I cant believe how smooth a ride this vehicle has. With the folding seats and compartments, it is a very versatile car. Great value for the money, which isnt much. Im using this as a work truck. My whole family loves it, even the teenagers!

  I love my HHR! - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By Maxs Mom - May 17 - 5:50 am

  This car is a blast! I downsized from an Envoy. I have had it less than a month and love the 26mpg versus 17mpg! Gas mileage will get better as we have it longer. Lots of room in the backseat. I like the height adjustments on the drivers seat. I am short and I feel taller than I would in a regular car. I get so many compliments wherever we go in it. I have a baby and can get him in and out of the vehicle easily. You have to drive one to really like it. The steering is great. I had first liked it because of the look and then drove it and thats all it took to buy! My husband is a "truck" person and he loves the HHR. We fight to drive it! Thank you, Chevrolet!

  Smooth ride with some electrical quirks - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By Onion42 - May 5 - 10:30 pm

  I enjoy driving this vehicle a great deal. One of the main reasons I purchased it was for the seating features, as I have back problems and the adjustable seat/lumbar support/heat was very attractive to me. The placement of the power window controls are odd (right side "floor" near gear shift)and its hard to clean the window under the back wiper. The main problem Ive had is frequent internal electrical shorts - the horn has gone out twice and I have had problems with the power seat a time or two. Its all covered under the warranty though. Im hoping it gets sorted out before the warranty expires. I love the car though - lots of room, features, and a thoroughly fun drive.

  2006 HHR Review - 2006 Chevrolet HHR
  By Tim - April 13 - 5:46 pm

  Although I like the overall looks and performance of my HHR, I am totally disappointed with the various electrical issues I had to put up with during the cold weather months this past winter. Issues with HVAC lights blinking on and off, battery going dead three different times for no reason, rear wiper motor have to be replaced for intermittent operation,windows that freeze and will not open after car has been warmed up for 45 minutes and last but not the very leaset, snow and ice build up at the front door which rubs the paint when opening the door. With all this said, I plan on replacing this car after driving for just 10,000 miles and I was a loyal GM owner for over 30 years.
