2009 Chevrolet HHR Road Test Ratings
Fuel Economy
24 - 26 mpg
EDITORS' RATINGS OVERALL SCORE:
Overall
The Chevy's overall package is quite functional and the retro styling is appealing. Too bad the HHR falls short in the driving department. The HHR was last tested in 2006.
DETAILED EDITORS' RATINGS
Dynamics
Steering, handling and brakes are unimpressive. Engine performance is below average, though the SS trim offers some improvement.
Comfort
The HHR is not as roomy up front as the competition, with below-par seats. Ride comfort is good.
Function
It can hold a lot of cargo, with many configuration options. The main controls are simply configured and easy to use,and there are many useful features. Center console-mounted window switches are questionable.
Design/Build Quality
If you like the retro styling look, this one works well. The interior materials and quality could be better.
Image Enhancer Fun retro-styling.
Cargo Hauler Easily configured cargo area.
Family Friendly Interior size allows versatility and storage.
