2009 Chevrolet HHR Gets E85 FlexFuel Capability
Ecotec four-cylinder engines to join industry-leading FlexFuel lineupCHICAGO - The 2009 Chevrolet HHR small SUV will become the first four-cylinder model in General Motors Corp.'s North American lineup that can run on either gasoline or E85 ethanol.
GM North America President Troy Clarke unveiled the FlexFuel Chevy HHR today during a speech at the Midwest Automotive Media Association breakfast, which opened press days for the Chicago Auto Show.
"We will continue to make more of our lineup FlexFuel-capable because we believe ethanol, and specifically E85, is the best near-term answer to reduce our nation's dependence on oil as energy demand rises here and around the world," Clarke said.
"The focus needs to be on making E85 more available by developing cellulosic ethanol sources and dramatically increasing the number of stations that offer E85," he said.
GM is the auto industry leader in offering FlexFuel models - 11 for 2008 and more than 15 planned for 2009.
The HHR, whose January sales of 9,650 were up 73 percent from the same month a year ago, will become the latest Chevrolet FlexFuel model when it goes on sale later this year. Chevrolet has more than 2 million of GM's more than 2.5 million FlexFuel vehicles on the road.
An HHR running on E85 - a blend of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline - would emit up to 23 percent fewer carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions than if running on gasoline, based on a well-to-wheel analysis by the Argonne National Laboratory.
The HHR will be available with an Ecotec 2.2-liter or Ecotec 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine, both of which will be compatible with E85. For the first time, the Ecotec 2.2L is equipped with variable valve timing (VVT), technology that assures precise opening and closing of the valves and accurate control of combustion gases to improve engine performance and efficiency. The Ecotec 2.4L continues to offer VVT.

2009 Chevrolet Traverse unveiled at the 2008 Chicago Auto Show.
Buyers longing for a Chevy Malibu SUV rejoice! Chevrolet has unveiled its long-awaited Traverse SUV at the 2008 Chicago Auto Show.
Built on the same Lambda platform as its older Buick Enclave/GMC Acadia/Saturn Outlook siblings, the 2009 Traverse is powered by GM's familiar 3.6-liter V-6 and sports a front fascia clearly inspired by the 2008 Malibu's. However, being the newest Lambda relative is cosmetically beneficial for the Traverse. It inherits projector-style headlights available on its kin, but not on Chevy's mid-size sedan.
In addition to wearing Chevrolet's new face, the Traverse has many of the same interior and exterior features available on the Enclave/Acadia/Outlook, such as third-row seating, a rear-seat entertainment system with second-row controls, turn-by-turn navigation, a rear-view camera and optional 20-inch wheels.
"Many of the SUV's details are typical on higher-priced vehicles," says Michael Burton, the Traverse's exterior design director. "But the Traverse brings them to a level that is accessible to more customers."
For those waiting for a lower-priced Enclave/Acadia/Outlook, the Traverse should be available by Fall 2008.
