The HHR small wagon gains a number of incremental improvements for the 2009 model year, and the performance-oriented SS trim level, which was new last year, is now available for the HHR Panel wagon as well. The HHR flaunts a tall stance, like Chrysler's PT Cruiser, and it's built on the same platform as the Chevrolet Cobalt sedan.
