What happens when GM Performance Division combines heritage with horsepower? The result is the Chevrolet So-Cal HHR - a radical race car with retro styling and rocketship speed.
The Bonneville bug has bitten GM Performance Division engineers hard. After two forays to the famed Salt Flats with production-based race cars, they are returning in 2005 with their most extreme machine yet - a chopped and stretched Chevrolet HHR powered by a 1,000-horsepower turbocharged Ecotec engine. The HHR's sculptured body panels cloak a fabricated tubular steel frame that mounts the engine midship and puts the driver in the back seat.
Chevy's new 2006 HHR pays homage to the 1949 Suburban - the original utility vehicle. The production HHR is designed to haul everything from groceries to surfboards in style. After its transformation by GM Performance Division and So-Cal Speed Shop, the Bonneville HHR racer is ready to overhaul the G/BFCC (G Class/Blown Fuel Competition Coupe) speed record.
