Dealer Comments

The 2008 Honda Element LX is a standout vehicle that combines versatility and practicality for all your driving needs. Powered by a robust 2.4L I-4 DOHC engine with i-VTEC variable valve control, this model delivers an impressive 166HP through a smooth 5-speed automatic transmission.Safety is a top priority in the Honda Element LX, featuring **Brake Assist**. This system detects panic braking and applies maximum brake force, helping to prevent potential accidents and providing peace of mind for both drivers and passengers.For those long journeys, the **Cruise Control with Steering Wheel Mounted Controls** adds comfort by allowing you to set and maintain a desired speed, reducing fatigue and improving fuel economy during extended drives.When faced with challenging weather conditions, you can rely on the **4-Wheel Drive** system to distribute power to all four wheels, ensuring excellent traction and stability on slippery roads. Additionally, the **Automatic Full-Time 4-Wheel/All-Wheel Drive** system enhances safety by automatically transitioning between two-wheel and four-wheel drive as needed, providing seamless control without requiring driver input.The **Variable Valve Timing** technology optimizes engine performance, enabling efficiency at both low and high RPMs. This results in better fuel efficiency and cleaner emissions, making your driving experience more enjoyable.The **Ignition Immobilizer** is another key feature that enhances security. This passive security system requires a unique transmitter in the ignition key to start the vehicle, ensuring that only authorized users can access the Element LX, thus reducing the risk of theft.In terms of control, the **Electronic Stability Control** system is designed to help maintain vehicle stability during adverse conditions. It monitors vehicle dynamics and adjusts in real-time to prevent skidding, engaging traction control and anti-lock brakes when necessary to keep you safe on the road.Convenience is taken to the next level with the **Flip-Up Rear Windshield**, which allows for quick access to the cargo area without the need to open the entire rear door—perfect for loading smaller items on the go.In summary, the 2008 Honda Element LX offers a compelling blend of safety, comfort, and performance. Its thoughtful features make it an excellent choice for anyone seeking a reliable and versatile vehicle for daily commutes or adventurous road trips. If youre looking for a practical compact SUV, the Honda Element LX is definitely worth considering!
