Overview & Reviews

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.

• Impressively versatile interior, optional all-wheel drive, smooth four-cylinder engine, styled as if out of a Japanese animation movie.

• Only seats four, clamshell doors hinder entry/exit for rear-seat passengers.

  Fun to drive - 2004 Honda Element
  By joel reiss - December 31 - 11:08 am

  All I can say is you must take one for a test drive. You will be suprised by the room and how easy you can get around on the road. We went from a Taurus to the Element and my wife said she will never go back.

  I love my box on wheels!!aewsome gas mileage.I drive 3000 miles a month. This is a very fun car to drive, and its safe. My family of four all fit very comfortably in it. It has great cargo room, My husband brought home a ginormous swamp cooler that fit perfectly in the back , not to mention a loveseat also (different times of course). Anyway get lots of compliments on it people are really intrested in it. It is also very easy to clean inside and out!! Thanks Honda!!!, t2b

  My 2nd Honda - 2004 Honda Element
  By Honda Believer - December 28 - 10:46 pm

  After researching the Element for several months, I decided that it was the car for me. It is so fun to drive. I have owned it 4 months and had no problems. Many features can be added (suggest the fog lights and rear spoiler). Fuel economy is so-so. Hate that it only seats four, but I dont car pool often. Had no problems and the Honda dealership was awesome! Please consider this for your next vehicle. The Element is the best bang for your buck!

  Function is (Great) Form - 2004 Honda Element
  By VT2ME - December 27 - 12:58 am

  This really is the Swiss Army knife of automobiles. As a product designer I appreciate every detail of the Element. Some reviews have outlandish suggested improvements....6cyl, Hybrid, luxury options, etc. Take a marketing class and youll appreciate what the Element has and more importantly why it does (or doesnt for that matter) have it. Honda has hit a home run with this vehicle but not everyone knows how to spot a diamond in the rough. When I spoke of purchasing an Element some people I know said "Its hideous" and yet when they actually ride in it they immediately acknowledge its roomy, and versatile interior as well as its good power and comfortable ride. This ones a keeper.

  Its A Honda and thats all that counts - 2004 Honda Element
  By msugost1 - December 26 - 10:00 am

  After 19 years of and over 800,000 miles on my Accords, Im now looking forward to the same with my Element. So far I dont have any if the wind noise that some have talked about and the ride is excellent. Plenty of power and a kick butt stereo system. As usual Honda builds another winner.

  You have to drive it to appreciate it. - 2004 Honda Element
  By Michael Rose - December 25 - 9:41 pm

  I am a 58 year Commercial Real Estate Broker. If you are looking for a car that is fun to drive, utilitarian and is out of the main stream, this car is for you. It handles really well for it has a real substantial feel. There are people who think that it is ugly but thats there problem. The bottom line is this is one funky ride.

  Have gear will travel - 2004 Honda Element
  By heffe - December 24 - 11:26 pm

  I live in NH. and travel all over New England and down the coast. I play in a variety of musical acts and haul my drums and sometimes my bassists gear as well. The E just eats it up and has performed very well for me. My last car was a Chevy Tahoe, so I am coming from a big rig. Ups: Loads of room, and comfort. Good stereo, Jack for my XM. Downs: Braking could be better. Road noise (due to no carpet?) is a little high ( see nice stereo above) and wind noise and buffeting is high. In all, I get lots of comments..."cool!" "ugly!" "box" But have you seen the Rover Discovery? How about the Hummer? Now run the prices. nuff said. Come on hybrid.

  Its a truck, its a suv, its GREAT - 2004 Honda Element
  By Molly - December 23 - 10:03 pm

  I just got it! You either love it or hate it. I love it. It sucks gas! Thats the only thing negative I can say about it. They 21 mpg City, Dont think so. Its more like 18. Power is O.K. Drives nice, handles well and still fits in tight places. Its a cross between a truck, van, and a SUV. I heard it was designed for the younger generation, Im 40 and I think its awesome. Lots of room, easy to change the seats around. I use it for work and I dont have to worry about it getting banged up or stuff spilled in it. With its out side panels, waterproof seat covers & utility floors. If I could, I would have gotten the EX. Oh well, Next time.

  AWESOME - 2004 Honda Element
  By Sylvia - December 21 - 11:22 pm

  Gutsy, gorgeous, and gas efficient! I loved my 2003 Honda Element so much that I bought a second one in 2004 so my husband could have one as well. It is roomy, family friendly, rugged and wicked cool looking to boot. I bought one in green and one in blue, the only colours that offered matching interior trim. I also love the new sky light in back that comes out you can put in its place a screen! I also love the options, I got the running boards, roof rack, interior rubber mats, front seat covers and stearing wheel cover. It is very stylish!
