2008 Chevrolet HHR LS 4dr Wagon (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
- Review
-
Have owned all sorts of cars and trucks, very easy to get comfortable. I drive a lot and I hate a vehicle that you constantly have to adjust the seat. With Gas over priced, I don't try to race light to light, I cruise a little slower than most and am got 31.5 mpg last tank (split city/hwy).
- Favorite Features
-
Cargo room! I keep my office in the back, and can haul material with the rear seats down. And the front seat folds down for a desk for my laptop!
- Suggested Improvements
-
I have one gripe and its rear drum brakes, but that's more picky than anything! I have yet to really have to plant the brake pedal, so no biggie.

2008 Chevrolet HHR LT 4dr Wagon (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
- Review
-
I bought this card to provide an ecomonical, comfortable, ride for my long trips. I visit customers throughout upstate New York and take weekly trips of 2 to 5 hours. I've had the car but a few days and it is living up to my expectations. It is economical to run and has a great ride! Comfortable on the highways, and a bit sporty on the back roads.

2008 Chevrolet HHR SS 4dr Wagon (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 5M)
- Review
-
I just bought this car last week, SS models are hard to come by. I have to say I am glad I didn't get the 2lt, this thing blows away the other HHRs I test drove. I have the automatic so there's less HP but the design and features on this thing are second to none. No turbo lag and this thing hugs corners as well as my 2000 Trans AM WS6! Definitely a good family car with a very sporty edge! Two tone interior is nice. Extra options I bought: 7speaker pioneer system, sunroof, XM radio, and other cool stuff. Definitely get the SS!
- Favorite Features
-
The smooth stiff performance suspension, and the power. You have a lot of power on command when you need it. Two tone ultralux inserts look sharp!
- Suggested Improvements
-
Basically some of the plastic in the interior seems kinda cheap, but driving this thing more than makes up for it.

2008 Chevrolet HHR LS 4dr Wagon (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
- Review
-
I did a lot of research before I bought my HHR, but I was surprised at just how fun this car really is. There are a lot of extras and small touches that make the car something special. Of all the cars I've ever owned, this one makes the best impression. Contrary to some reviews I've read, the handling is fun. The ride is as smooth as glass, and the steering is very responsive. It's amazing how tight it turns in parking situations. I can make u-turns in very, very tight circles. The small windows and windshield give the car a fun attitude when you drive, too. The novelty of the doesn't get in the way, though. It's not over the top. It's just fun. My favorite car ever.
- Favorite Features
-
Very nice interior. Lots of gadgets and gizmos. Smooth ride. Excellent gas mileage. Driver information center. OnStar! (my car has a phone number!) even the base audio system sounds great. Very fun to drive and ride in

2008 Chevrolet HHR LT 4dr Wagon (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
- Review

Bought it 30 days ago. Love it. Got a LT loaded, Leather seats and all. Big difference with a loaded HHR and a basic HHR. Cost was 18K.
- Favorite Features
-
Roomy, great ride for a small car, quiet too,
- Suggested Improvements
-
The ground clearance should be about 2 inches higher so when you park you dont smash the front air dam on the curb.

2008 Chevrolet HHR LT 4dr Wagon (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
- Review
-
I would say I am generally happy with the car. The gas mileage is fine (mid 20's), the power is fine (the gear ratios need to be adjusted), the options are very good (I opted for all options) and the ergonomics is good. It is very weasy to get my daughter in and out of the center rear seat, the rear volume is better than I orig thought and the styling is unique.The two things I would change would be the location of the power window controls and the number of cup holders available. The only complaint is the the roof liner glue does not hold with sunroof models and the dealer does not have a clue as to how to fix the issue. I would recommend this car to a friend or family member.

2008 Chevrolet HHR LS 4dr Wagon (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
- Review
-
I didn't set out to buy the HHR but when I saw everything it offered I'd be foolish not to! My Equinox lease was up and wanted better fuel economy and lower payments.I have been averaging 24 MPG. With gas at over 3.45/gal this is awesome. Purchase price was low -allowed me to buy it keeping payments in line with my lease. Rides smoother than the Equinox and cargo space is the same or even more.I really love the manueverability - it has a much bigger turning radius compared to the Equinox - I just zip in and out of places. I knew pick up would be slower but it makes me drive safer. It does get a lot of looks - either you love it or hate it. I like different anyway so it's right up my alley
- Favorite Features
-
OnStar, On-board telephone allows you to buy minutes-great when you forget your cell phone. Remote starter, terrific storage features, cute fluorescent night light, map light on the mirror, comfortable seats, cool dash lights, nifty computer readout on the instrument panel - love knowing my oil life
- Suggested Improvements
-
You need to jazz up the console to match it's retro style, window controls need to be on the door, need better outside colors to choose from - maybe some historic colors? We can always use more cup holders, plugs and storage!

2008 Chevrolet HHR Panel LS 4dr Wagon (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
- Review
-
I have only had this vehicle 1 week now and I must say I am now on the bandwagon. At over 6'2 lots of room to spare. I love my panel it gets looks from everywhere. There are only 2 bad flaws I have found. Because the front tires are so big they throw dirt and rocks..fix. Get running boards or tire guards. 2nd. Because of my height the window controls for both windows are in a bad spot if you need to roll down while in motion. They should be located in the door. It is flawless other than that. I love it.
- Favorite Features
-
Room for tall people. I test drove with 2 large adults well over 6ft and over 300lbs. Easy fit for both. Nice soft ride. Awesome gas saver. Easy to customize.
- Suggested Improvements
-
Better location for window controls

2008 Chevrolet HHR LT 4dr Wagon (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
- Review
-
The styling, accessories, feel, and comfort are great. I do agree that the braking and handling need some improvement. But all in all, I'm very happy that I bought this car.
- Favorite Features
-
The chrome package with 17" wheels sets off the entire look of the exterior. Inside there is everything that you could need. The OnStar and XM radio are wonderful and the extra sound system really set off the need to take long rides.
- Suggested Improvements
-
Braking is weak, it takes a lot of foot power and additional distance to stop this thing. The handling isn't as responsive as I would like. Some of the curves on Tennessee roads can get a bit nerve wracking.

2008 Chevrolet HHR SS 4dr Wagon (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 5M)
- Review
-
Purchased a 08 HHR SS and have been enjoying it. Even with the high performance turbo charged engine, I get decent gas mileage. Of course using the various readouts and the cruise control helps too. Of course there are some minor things that I don't like. But at least the window controls are back where they should be on the SS. Having to go through two tire changes when a flat occurs on one of the front tires will be a real big pain. But I have roadside service. I rented a HHR for a week a few months before. So I could see if I liked driving it. I did and waited for the SS model to come out. I got the victory red and have got several comments on the HHR. So far I like the HHR I have.
- Favorite Features
-
The turbo charger for when I want power and the launch mode is great too. The overall body style and look of the SS is fantastic. The soverall placement of the instrument readouts isn't too bad. The storage room is just the right size for me. The safety equipment standard and optional I got
- Suggested Improvements
-
A outlet in the rear area would be nice. To be able to raise or lower the drivers seat. Of course the 2 tire changing requirement on the front tires when one goes flat. The center console isn't much to brag about.
