From the Detroit News:

"It is a poorly kept secret in Detroit that the HHR (Heritage High Roof) and the PT Cruiser sprang from the same designer, 36-year-old Bryan Nesbitt, who left Chrysler in 2001 and now is executive director of GM Design Europe.

Where the PT Cruiser is simply retro-flavored, Chevrolet says the exterior design of the HHR was inspired specifically by the 1949 Suburban panel delivery truck, with some styling cues derived from the Chevy SSR pickup."
