2006 Honda Element consumer reviews

Excellente: The best vehicle ever manufactured. Vehicles like this are made to last a lifetime. Roughit, toughit and keep going......this is the last vehicle I plan to own.

I think that this vehicle is the perfect inexpensive route if you want a vehicle that is perfect for dog lovers, campers, and all around functional cars. Honda did not try to hard to make a car with pointless bells and whistles. Every part of the cars has a solid function and purpose. Love it so much!

This vehicle is roomy if you need it to be, seats can be removed easily, interior is made out of commercial plastic which is long lasting and easy to clean.

I owned this car now almost 12 years it has 420,000km, it has been amazingly reliable economical and fun and a vehicle does dose tow a small trailer for camping

Great gas milage, minor issues and design inconveniences are very minimal (i.e. having a carseat and getting to it with a suicide door). It's a pain but worth it for the honda reliability. Also the drivers side window falls in often due to a known design flaw, needing replacement and other minor rather inexpensive issues at 100k miles, but would get another element in a heartbeat. Wish they continued the line!

Totally love this car. Everything I wanted and needed. I will be definitely buying a Honda element soon!

This car was the best car I ever drove especially during the brutal winters in IL. I hope they bring it back. I t was roomy and reliable. I miss owning one.

As the title says, this is an amazingly versatile car. The smaller engine gives the car great all-around gas mileage. The higher cabin gives the car great headroom for even people taller than 6' tall. The ability to fold-up the rear seats completely against the wall within 5 minutes allows for huge amounts of storage. The seats can even completely be removed with an additional 5 more minutes. They can fold completely flat in the event you want to sleep in your car (though, not sure why you'd want to do that.) The rear suicide doors allow for ease of getting out in compact, parking tight city scenes. And, it's a Honda... so it's super reliable and rarely ever needs any work outside of routine maintenance. The roof racks allow for flexible storage if needed. And, the interior is completely water proof to allow for ease of clean-up with even a water house if necessary. (While I have been tempted, I've never tried that. Just the idea of hosing out the back of your car seems too good to be true.) Great car for a young, active couple. We raised our two kids on this car from 1 to 9. No regrets! Shame they stopped making it.

So roomy inside and perfect for road trips and other adventures. For an active lifestyle. The Fun Stuff? All wheel drive takes you where you need to go. 10? subwoofer upfront for the ultimate listening experience. Has Sirius XM radio, AM/FM, aux plugin, and single disc CD. Seats can go all the way up in the back for more cargo room, perfect for pets! Front seats can also fold all the way down to connect with the back seats for a quick sleeping arrangement on all your adventures. This is the perfect vehicle for road trips and camping, it is so roomy and comfortable on the inside!

the Honda Element is an incredible vehicle for driving and getting around. If you are buying plants, taking your dogs to to the park, going shopping...this car is it. If you have to travel long distance, enjoy listening to music while you drive, or are looking to impress other drivers, then, this is not your car. Mine has 133K miles and I think the major issues I have dealt with are: replace the alternator, and the steering fuel pump. A couple of light bulbs here and there.
