2006 Honda Element: Unique Appeal
Summary
Contrary to first impressions, the Honda Element is more practical than it is unusual. It's becoming increasingly popular among young drivers.Article
When I first encountered the Honda Element a few years ago, I thought it was one of the most unusual-looking vehicles on the road. My opinion shifted slightly after seeing the Scion xA and Scion xB. Now, I’ve come to appreciate the Element’s usefulness and unique design more. While the Honda Element might look unconventional, it's a remarkably practical vehicle.
Breaking the Mold: Honda’s slogan for the Element is "Freedom from convention," and it fits. Cars don't need to conform to traditional expectations. Though past bold designs like the Ford Edsel and VW Thing weren’t successful, the Element proves that times have changed. Its distinctive look is genuinely in style now.
The Element is not just about looks; it's highly functional too. Shaped like a breadbox, it features two large and two smaller doors reminiscent of the Saturn ION. The 4WD LX model includes features such as ABS, theft deterrent, air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, doors, mirrors, locks, and a robust AM/FM/CD audio system.
Powering the Element is a spirited 2354cc I4 engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, with a 4-speed automatic option available. Given that the Element targets young drivers, the manual transmission is likely the popular choice.
Borrowing components from the Civic, the Element offers a car-like ride while maintaining its rugged appearance. The design, which allows all four doors to open simultaneously, resembles the suicide doors of vintage Lincoln Continentals and Rolls-Royce Phantoms. This feature simplifies gear retrieval without needing to open the rear hatch?"ideal for outdoor enthusiasts.
Pricing starts at approximately $17,500 for the base 2WD model and goes up to just over $21,500 for the fully-equipped 4WD version. Compared to typical SUVs, the Element is competitively priced, attracting a specific segment of buyers that Honda aims to engage.
Whether or not you’re a fan of its looks, the Element certainly grabs attention. Its sales success indicates a strong appeal among younger drivers.
