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.

  • Best SUv Utility vehicle on the road - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    It starts quck, is silent, has 7 speakers and accessible huge cargo space with removable seats,urethane floors for great cleaning. great mileage 3 fills/993 miles. Easy waxing with beautiful paint and protectant is used on outside vinyl and interior. Electric Windows and locks with shading for inside cooling and shade to the outside. I love the higher shift gear on the coloumn and comfort especially with waterproff seats anf floor. Buy One, you wont be sorry.

    Extremely functional. Great all weather vehicle, goes well in snow. Interior is very roomy with excellent headroom. You get the feeling you are in a vehicle twice the size. The fabric and floor wipe clean with just a wet rag or sponge. This is by far the most versital vehicle I have ever owned.

  • The funnest - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    The E is excellent for handling, interior room, an absolute blast to drive. Love the look it keeps me differant from everyone else. My son loves the ipod jack. Easy to clean. People are always asking to see the inside and they are so suprised at the amount of room. I would purchase another in a heart beat.

  • Honda makes smart vehicles - 2004 Honda Element

    Handles well for a SUV. Gas mileage is among the best for a small 4wd SUV. No reliability problems at all. Im 68" tall and fit well in the vehicle. I would definitely buy this vehicle again.

  • Does it all - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    This vehicle does it all! Ive used it for commuting-long distance traveling - camping and hauling. The gas mileage isnt bad for a larger vehicle (23) hwy. The ride is smooth and the transmission the same. I recommend it to anyone wanting an all-purpose vehicle.

  • Just what I needed - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    So far my Element has been a joy to own and drive. Zero mechanical problems ever. Extremely easy to keep clean. A work of art for the amount of room inside compared to its overall size. I like the brakes they work like I think brakes should work. Simply finding my element in a very large parking lot is no problem. There it is over there, the funny looking one. I love it!! Its been one of the best vehicles ever owned.

  • I love me "Ellie" - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    I love my element from the terrific stereo to the ultra-cool A/C I could not ask for more. It has all the power I need ,but is not too hard on the petrol. The interior is stylish yet spartan at the same time. The exterior styling is all German WWII military vehicle. I love my "Ellie"

  • Best value/gas economy of AWD - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    Looking for an AWD to handle any road/weather, but cant stand typical SUV mileage? Nothing beats the Element for this, and living with it offers continued pleasant surprises. 5sp Manual offers incredible torque and merging power, but the chasis still wins the show. Suicide doors and clamshell tailgate hatch with flat floor back and "hangable"/removable seats makes this the hauling vehicle. Still it seats four comfortably in style. The jeep-like stubby looks adds to my appeal of it and the ease of keeping clean is another bonus. Best for price, performance and features (AWD, anti-lock, side airbags, 24/28mpg. Plus its Honda quality & made in USA.

  • Great value - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    Provides excellent interior room for storage and passengers. The variety of seating choices comes in handy when moving bulky items. The large back and side entry allows for easy loading and unloading of cargo, especially large and bulky items. It is very reliable with only regularly scheduled maintenance being performed. For the price, it is an exceptional value and puts higher priced SUVs to shame.
