Hottest 50 Cars, Trucks, and SUVs for 2006
This two-box, heritage-influenced crossover was inspired by both the SSR and the original 1949 Suburban to round out Chevy's small-car strategy. The five-passenger vehicle is based on the Delta platform (shared with Chevrolet Cobalt and Saturn Ion), and is powered by either a 2.2-liter/143-hp or 2.4-liter/172-hp four-cylinder Ecotec with standard five-speed tranny or available four-speed automatic. Like the Chrysler PT Cruiser it is gunning for, the HHR ("heritage high roof") will have a customizable interior with seats that fold to create a flat load surface. Two model levels, LS ($15,990) and LT ($16,990), include standard features such as air conditioning, power windows and door locks, six-speaker CD stereo, and remote keyless entry, as well as additional niceties. Chevrolet dealers will begin receiving HHR shipments in late summer.
