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.

    This SUV is really great! Even though its the same engine like the CR-V, this car has style and looks. Has a lot of room and i can actally put something big in the trunk. Even though the exterior looks like its a box, it beats the toyota scion looking more like a BOX. This ride is for more young ones. The price is affordable.

    Driving an Element is like living in a light-filled cabin on wheels. It can go anywhere, turn on a dime, and can be configured to handle anything from a large armoire to people to surfboards. I am not a car person, but this little car has captured my heart! Sleeping in it on a camping trip is a treat -- you can see the stars through the skylight over your head.

    I really did not think I would like this vehicle, I was SO wrong. I owned a Lexus previously, and quite frankly was sick of the payment. My Honda Element is so roomy and it is the smartest thing I have done in a long time. The gas mileage is awesome. I truly love it.

  • It works for me - 2004 Honda Element

    I had seen an ad for the Element about six months prior to its release and was impressed by the look. As soon as I had driven one and saw the roomy interior I was sold. I have three big dogs and they all fit comfortably inside. Clean up is a breeze. I have been on a couple road trips and found that the Element handles great on the Interstate and the milage was a bit higher than what was on the sticker. All in all it was the vehicle I was looking for at this time. I rather enjoy the strange looks I still get when I drive past.

    Ive had my Element for 10 months and I enjoy it today as much as the first week I had it.I consider it a true sport utility vehicle. The way the seats fold up make the rear space very usable. The seats also easily come out more space. The interior is rugged and the all season mats are a must for this type of SUV. In deep snow its unstoppable with its unique 4 wheel drive system. I have had no problems with it at all and have only had it back to the dealer for oil changes and tire rotation. The long list of available options only add to the fun of owning and driving this very unique and reliable SUV.

    FUN TO DRIVE, acceptable fuel economy. Does not like crosswinds, or rough/uneven surfaces, otherwise has a very surefooted feeling and easy to drive. It has swallowed everything that I have thrown at it easily, from tons of luggage to wheelchairs,etc. ), and a standard radio that plays MP3s. When I drive, I am in my ELEMENT, I love it...
