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.

  • Love it - 2004 Honda Element
    By -

    The Element is everything I thought it would be and more. Its stylish, comfortable and handles well on the road. Its particularly great for my big dog who is older and has trouble getting in and out of most cars. This ones a cinch for her. Plus its easy to clean up after a weekend at the beach. And the cargo space!!!

  • Fun to drive! - 2004 Honda Element

    I love my Honda Element, I have had several Hondas but this one has been the best. Its fun to drive and has so much hauling room, it makes going to the hardware store a piece of cake, not to mention how nice it is to fold up the seats and use it for a kennel when going to the Vet. I like that you dont have to worry about staining the carpet when you spill something. This vehicle is a must have at a great price!

  • Good all around car - 2004 Honda Element

    I bought the Element because of its versatile interior and waterproof qualities. It drives well for its height, not too much body roll. Wind is not as bad on the highway as you might think. It cruises easily at 75- 80, though the engine revs higher at this speed then some other cars Ive driven. I have had 28mpg highway, and average above 20mpg for mixed driving. The plastic panels are easy and relatively cheap to replace if they get scratched or damaged.

  • Ultimate UTILITY Vehicle - 2004 Honda Element

    After owning the Element for over a year, I can truly say that this is one of the best vehicles I have ever bought. My one year old, my dog, all of the stuff that comes with a one year old and a dog, and suitcases, etc. fit perfectly. Excellent all wheel drive in the snow. The car also is a blast to get dirty and easy to clean up. Good power from the 4cyl and the automatic matches up well with it. Gas mileage of about 21 in town and 24 on the hwy has been pretty good for an SUV. And, as usual with a Honda, NO PROBLEMS. The car has only been to shop for routine oil changes and tire rotation. Great car, I would recommend it to anyone.

    I LOVE this car! It is the best car for my needs that Ive ever owned. Its fun to drive and drives remarkably fast for the engine it has (I often commute over a 7000 foot pass and have gotten up to 94 mph on that climb. Great get- up-and-go). Im a mountain bike racer and can fit 2 bikes in the back with all my gear. It has so much room for such a small car.
