The uniquely styled Element was originally pitched as a backpack for young active males, but many other types of buyers have found that the Element offers sensible all-wheel-drive utility for suburban duty. The orginal matte-finish plastic fenders provide resistance to dents and scratching. Painted, body-colored fenders are also available. The interior features spill-proof surfaces. The trick doors provide good access to the back, but are tricky to operate in parking spaces. Only 2 passengers can sit in the rear seat, but they will enjoy almost limousine-like leg room.
A new trim level appears offering painted body panels and door handles.
