The Honda Element (Discontinued in 2011) is one of the most versatile cars on the market with features like no other car has and appeals to many different audiences.

Some examples:

You can fold one back seat up or both within seconds to create more space. (I typically role my bike in totally assembled and bungee it to the side handle to keep it safe from weather and theft and throw my skis straight in).

You can just as easily take one or both back seats out for even more space (This is very handy for moving boxes, sports equipment, pet kennels, wheel chairs, etc).

You can lay back the front seat and connect to the backseat on both the the driver and passenger side and lay down (Yes, it can become your very own hard shelled tent).

You can also sit in the back seat with the front seat connected and have a lounge chair (Work remote from anywhere anyone?)

You can see why these reasons alone have summoned a community of Element Camper Van Conversions at a much more affordable price than its larger competitors.

The floors are made of rubber and can be hosed out to clean.

The seats are made of water resistant material.

The middle console between the driver and passenger side also duos as a small cooler that you can easily take out and use elsewhere. 

There are 3 compartments overhead for glasses and personal belongings as well as a catch all in front of the passengers seat for the same.

The tailgate , oh my goodness is this impossible to find on anything other than a pickup truck, can be used as a bench to sit on (swap out ski boots in the parking lot) or stretch on post workout, a counter to grill on or a table to sit eat/work at. You get the jist.

The Honda Element also used the same engine as its popular sister vehicle, the CRV, which made for pretty decent miles per gallon on the road with AWD and non AWD options.

This car can be sporty, rugged, practical and, well, limitless.

The Honda Element was discontinued in 2011 with nothing really close to these features since.

For those of you who already own one and understand, or don’t yet and would like to from what you’ve read…

Please consider singing this petition for Honda to Bring Back The Honda Element.

In the time of remote working and living, we want practicality, options and freedom.
