This Year's Model Updates:

The 2004 Honda Element lineup gets an LX model to slot between the existing DX and EX models. New equipment on EX models includes keyless entry, a passenger-seat armrest as standard, and bungee-cord fasteners on the driver-side front and rear seat backs.

Pros:
  • Impressively versatile interior, optional all-wheel drive, smooth four-cylinder engine, styled as if out of a Japanese animation movie.
Cons:
  • Only seats four, clamshell doors hinder entry/exit for rear-seat passengers.

  • great vehicle - 2004 Honda Element

    the car is so practical. there are so many things that you can do with this car. packing the car with many items is easy. so many other cars are not practical, just made to look attractive and comfort and interior room count more for the drivers.

    Agile handling and suprisingly spacious inside. Rear seating has more leg room than any other vehicle I have ever owned. Especially like the CD/Radio sound system.

  • Love this empty nester vehicle! - 2004 Honda Element

    Great headroom, perfect for active "empty nest" lifestyle. Great for anything from loading gardening equipment to mountain bikes because of rear seat and headroom and also great to wash out when dirty! Love the handling and the fun of the drive. ALso like its distinctive shape.

    the reason i love this car is because i tend to go surfing and snowboarding a lot and it just seems very versatile when it comes to these thigs, so if your an outdoor person, you need this vehicle, besides the fact that it will run forever

  • I Love by little/big Honda - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    From the moment I opened the door – I fell in love. I’m a smoker and this SUV offers not only easy clean up for children spills and dirt, but with just a bit of cleaner and a rag the smoke smell is history. I vacuum my SUV out wipe him down and off I go. The real time four wheel drive system is awesome in the snow, sand and mud. I have really put my SUV to the test and it out performs all I have ever driven. I have driven thru NM, TX, TN, AL, and GA – This SUV is gas friendly and fun to drive. I recommend it to anyone that is in need of a dependable, very roomy, functional and yet affordable SUV. And it’s a Honda

    I LOVE MY ELEMENT!!!. i traded in my 2000 Nissan Maxima for a 2004 Honda Element EX AWD MT. I love it. Handles like a car. its really fun to drive. Squeals tires from stop and into second. My parents beg me to let them take it. Seats are very comfy, love the Fiji Blue color. I get a lot of comments on the color even when they dont like the car. Very noticeable wind noise around 55+mph. I am averaging 23 mpg which is awesome. Just think its the size of my friends explorer he gets 17 mpg with the v6... Tons of storage. Love the versatility of the seating, my friends all fit very comfortably. The stock sound system is amazing!!! Better than the bose in my maxima. Best car i have ever owned

  • The Best Kept Secret is Out - 2004 Honda Element

    This is the best car Ive ever owned. Its all-purpose functionality is excellent along with the wonderful drive and comfort.

  • Awesome!!!!!! - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    I love my element. I traded my 00 nissan maxima for it. The maxima was a great car but it didnt go with my lifestyle. I do a lot of skiing, snowboarding, and mountain biking and the element is perfect. I dont need to worry about getting the carpet dirty and it has room for all my gear. The rear doors are hard to get used to but they are cool and there is a ton of room in the back. As my friend said shaq could fit in the back seat. It has a great ride and great gas mileage for a awd truck. It handles like a car. The turning radius is awesome. It doesnt ride like a lexus but its not like youre driving an explorer. I wouldnt get rid of it for anything. I highly recommend the element!!!

  • Good Vehicle - 2004 Honda Element

    Ive enjoyed the vehicle. and would recommend it to anyone. this is my first Honda and I would buy again. US made does not come close. My other car is US and there is always something going wrong with it. Ive got 11,000 on the Honda and only one small A/C vent broke on me.
