No. The HHR fuel system is not set up to tolerate more that the 10% some states, like Missouri, require.
I guess, the real answer is yes. But why would you want to? Not any cheaper, less power, and less mpgs.

My dealer and I were talking about the HHR being able to use E85 next year. He says that with the vehicles out there now that the E85 has to be at least 40 cents less than nolead just to break even as far as fuel mileage.

Example:
Gasoline = $4.00 per gallon
Ethanol needs to be less then $ $2.80 per gallon

This is exactly what I was looking for. Opinions on ethanol in the car. I didnt think it was a good idea, but wanted to see what others thought.
The article was singing it's praises, so I needed to hear the other side.
