Both look tiny and the Nissan looks like a hard top golf cart!

Saw one on the road for the first time today, it's pretty short, but looks like it's roomy enough, so long as you don't need to carry 4 and luggage at the same time. Looks a little like an xA but about the size of a first gen xB. Funny how all these small European/Asian vehicles are popping up here, but the Big 2 don't bring models they've already got on sale there (Fiesta/Corsa) to the US market.

whats funny is both platforms are several years OLDER than the HHR.

the nissan cube is good at what its meant for... urban, in town driving... its HELL on the freeway IMO.

i dont wanna get kia on my hands... so I've never driven that half assed knock off of a really great car (the great car being the gen2 scion Xb)

but holy crap. the new Xb is awesome... if i could afford it i would buy it instead of an HHR...

but both HHRs and gen2 Xb's cruise nicely on the highway... and have unique styling... and come with available 2.4 inline 4 engines...

and come to think of it. toyota had a hand in the creation of both of them too...

co-inky-dinky me thinky?
