Chronology
SuccessorChevrolet Captiva Sport (North America)

The Chevrolet HHR (an initialism for Heritage High Roof)[1] is a retro-styled, high-roofed, five-door, five-passenger, front-wheel drive wagon[2][3] designed by Bryan Nesbitt and launched by the American automaker Chevrolet[4] at the 2005 Los Angeles Auto Show[citation needed] as a 2006 model.[4]

The HHR shares the GM Delta platform with the Chevrolet Cobalt, Pontiac G5, and Saturn Ion. Chevrolet also marketed a panel van variant of the HHR beginning in 2007. Assembled in Ramos Arizpe, Mexico and marketed throughout North America, production of the HHR ended in May 2011. The HHR was replaced in the U.S. by the Chevrolet Captiva Sport, a rebadged version of the Opel Antara.[5] However, the Captiva Sport was only available as a fleet vehicle and was not available new to the general public.
