The Honda Element is returning???

[kabinenroller]

According to two articles I saw today Honda is bringing back the Element in 2029. I will not believe it until I see one in the flesh but it is good news that they may finally have listened to the public's ongoing requests. Our 2011 Element is approaching 170k miles, I know it should run forever but I would definitely look into replacing it if a newer improved model should appear.

Honda's original Element was arguably ahead of its time. Could a new, hybrid version do any better?

That was such a COOL vehicle ! The funny thing is, like the Ford Flex, it was most popular with the over 50/60 crowd !

The one thing the Element enthusiasts always wanted was more power. Enough to tow a 2000 lb trailer. Hybrid would be good as long as there was version that could tow !

errr.... because the Cybertruck wasn't ugly enough?

One of the ugliest vehicle ever made.

Used to see one all the time with the plate "ROFLBOX"

Fantastic vehicles with an incredibly passionate ownership. If they don't screw up the practicality and price, they'll do well

But they have a great personality.
They also might not be the prettiest vehicle on the road but they are able to do ”things” others only claim to do. I have owned an “E” for over 10 years, no other vehicle can match its utility.

Clearly you are not aware of the Aztek or the Multipla.

 

[mike93lx]

the Multipla

I see you woke up and chose violence today.

 

[PCustoms]

I had to Google that

Yeah the element was never a **** car, but rather a practical one. A tool like any other. Easy to maintain K series motor and a functional interior from what I’ve seen.

The problem with cars post-2016 is the never ending list of “features” that target the luxury-minded consumption heavy demographic. Simple utilitarian vehicles are those of a bygone era, and we aren’t getting that back. I have very low hopes for a new Element that will satisfy car people.

Bet you wish you could have continued living without the knowledge of that... thing

you have to wonder, though....

do you think Pontiac could have tried any harder?

That could be a thread all its own.

Or most French cars built in the past 80 years.

Instead of a check engine light, does a little white flag pop up on the dash?

I disagree and I am not a fan of most things France including the World Cup team. Anyone but France!

 

[Rusted Nut]

Hopefully they’ll put the sun roof over the driver this time, rather than in the back; cause most of us don’t have surf boards.

Sounds like the typical Aztec owners.

You missed the "most" part of his post

One forward gear, 4 in reverse.
