I would really like to see a 5/6 speed automatic or CVT tranny to replace the outdated 4 speed.

I have a 36" inseam. I can handle the legroom in the PT Cruiser but not in the HHR. I would love to own a Manual transmission HHR.
Anyone know if the seat can be moved back some?

I would like to see a 6 speed automatic transmission with a more powerfull engine. Before I purchased my 2007 Toyota Camry, I took the "top of the line" HHR out on a test drive. It did not have enough power to get into highway traffic safely. I was VERY disappointed with the performance of the vehicle. From an appearance point of view, this vehicle should have twin exhausts on it's rear, and maybe a little sound from the exhaust system. (Something to go along with it's image!) In addition, I would like to see more comfortable seats.
    Chevrolet has a "money maker" with this vehicle, if they change a few things. A diesel engine might be a good option!
   Best regards. ---- Dwayne

My car was in the body shop so i got an 07 HHR for a rental...Lots to like...but it needs the following:
 
200-220 hpr or a diesel would be nice
Interior is to cheap and plastic...
AWD would be awesome...

Go over to the 07 Camry forum if you want to hear some real horror stories!

#10 of 60 My Current HHR And The Future by gottalink

I bought the first HHR that came into the dealership I worked in. It has been a good, and stable vehicle. Mine is an LS with the automatic 2.2 Litre. Power is adequate, fuel economy is outstanding (32 + mpg on trips). It is no hot rod, but it has a hundred mile per hour stereo ( the Pioneer), and cruise. I'm not a greeny weeny, but I appreciate not spending too much on fuel. I think a six speed automatic might be the best improvement, if it can be made as dependable as the current 4 speed.The extra gears might make speeds up hill easier, less reving, quieter downshifts.
Power seats might be a good option too. I like the idea of the panel delivery too.
