In terms of space, the 2006 Chevrolet HHR has something to offer cargo-toting buyers. The split rear seat folds to create an expansive floor covered in a hard, durable plastic. But remember to move the front seats forward first, or the rear headrests won’t clear the seatbacks. Below the load floor are a few storage wells of varying sizes, and on top are four tie-downs and a large cargo net good for keeping items secure. A large tailgate opening with a relatively low floor height makes for easy loading, but be careful not to scratch the bumper, as it lacks the protective pad found on similar vehicles. Also, keep an eye on the raised gate, sure to bump the skull of anyone over 5-foot-8-inches tall.

Inside are three cupholders – two in the front of the center console and one in the rear. Each door features a small pocket, there’s a deep cubby on the top of the dash, a medium-sized glovebox is good for storing the owner’s manual and a few small items, while a storage net on the back of the driver’s seat is suitable for maps or rear passengers’ gear.
