Model overview

The Chevrolet HHR (an abbreviation for Heritage High Roof) is a retro-styled, front-wheel-drive, high-roofed crossover introduced by the American carmaker Chevrolet in 2005 at the Los Angeles Auto Show as a 2006 model.

The HHR was built on the same GM Delta platform as the Chevrolet Cobalt,  Saturn Ion, and Pontiac G5. In Mexico, it was sold with its ancestor, the Opel-sourced Chevrolet Zafira compact MPV. Constructed in Mexico and sold in North America, the making of the HHR stopped in 2011.

The HHR was available with two different engines: the standard 2.2-liter inline-4 that produces 155 horsepower and 150 pound-feet of torque and a 2.4-liter inline-4 appeared on LT trims that makes 172 hp and 167 lb-ft of torque. Both are paired to either a standard five-speed manual transmission or an optional four-speed automatic.
