I Like It, It Wont Do What My Suburban Will,nor Would I Expect It To. Get One And See. — First of all I love the"retro" look of the HHR, I had a 53 Chevy panel truck in High School, and it reminds me of it. The model I have is the LT2, we had leather seats added and the factory spoiler, we also have the 2.4 ltr. upgrade which has a very noticeable performance difference over the 2.2 ltr. We are still getting use to the size as we also have a Suburban and a Tahoe. So far the vehicle is great to drive and no quirks around town or on the highway. I would highly reccomend this vehicle to anyone, with many packages and styles available. Another winner from Chevrolet

A Great Family Car For The Price. — A great family car for the price. Excellent mileage and plenty of cargo room. So far, no mechanical issues. It's got some pep, but it's nothing sporty.

Overall, We Love The Car! — Love the car!! We brought it home from Langhorne, PA, to Wilkes Barre PA, and only used a quarter tank of gas! The steering is electronic, and handles like a dream! And there is plenty of leg room in the back seat for passengers so they don't feel cramped.

Pros

28-29 miles per gallon in town! 30-31 on the highway! Need I say more. Ah, but I will. Remote start, heated leather seats, sunroof, CB player with premium Pioneer sound, auxilary hook up for MP3s and smart phones, front wheel drive.CUTE!

Cons

I live in the country and on a small hill decided to get my own four wheel drive instead of using my husbands.

Great Little Car With Lots Of Bells And Whistles For The Money. — I felt spoiled and pampered in this car. Unfortunately I think this little car would be happier in town or in the city. I love the looks of the car, how easy it is to get in and out of. Not at all cumbersome like some lower sitting cars but more like sliding in and out of a small truck or a van. The lumbar support in a heated seat is like going to a spa. Some days I did not want to get out of the car when I got home.

Family Car — Would have liked more if I would have gotten it fully loaded. Rides a little rough but the sound system is great maybe the radio could tune in a little better. Seat always need to be power and the battery life of the clicker should last longer and it should come with 2.

Thumbs Up! — Great Gas Mileage, with sporty retro appearance that's fun to toss around. So far no problems. The 2.2L ecotec is simple and easy to service and the ride is great with adequate performance. On-Star is excellent as well as the XM radio kicks but.

Great Car For The Money. Good Transportation. — I am very pleased with my new HHR. Espeially the gas mileage. I was pleasantly surprised at the acceleration from the little 2.2. Plenty of zip, fun to drive.
