he 2011 Honda Element is mechanically unchanged. Its sole engine remains a 2.4-liter four-cylinder rated at 166 horsepower and 166 pound-feet of torque. Acceleration is adequate at best and labored when you’re haulin’ three buds onto the freeway or up the mountain. Honda clipped what wings Element possessed when it dropped the five-speed manual transmission after model-year 2009. That leaves only a five-speed automatic transmission that saps much of what verve this engine possesses. Towing capacity is a modest 1,500 pounds.
2011 Honda Element is expected to attain the highest rank for front and side impact protection in upcoming crash tests. 2011 Honda Element valve shock absorbers use a low-pressure gas and heavy-duty, high-density compression bushings to absorb small vibrations control larger sharp movements for a more comfortable ride. New features for 2011 includes:
* New LX trim level adds popular features to DX trim level
* Passenger seat armrest added to EX
* Keyless Entry added to EX
* Bungee cords added on EX to driver-side front and rear seat backs
* Fiji Blue Pearl exterior color replaces Eternal Blue Pearl
The Honda Element got the attention of many drivers, especially drivers on the go and consumers who needed a cool looking vehicle with some storage features and some fuel economy.
