2009 Honda Element

rv65

Not too many changes. Honda is thinking of just putting some cool stuff like a version of the Fit/CRV/Civic Navigation system in it. So the Element will go on for another year. Some other changes might happen as well. Just another year for the element. No info on a 2nd gen Element.

Does anyone know when the 2009 Elements will be available?

I just received the September '08 Car and Driver magazine and it has all the new '09 Cars. Under Honda It says that the Element will be restyled with revised sheetmetal and upgraded amenities and electronics. The platform and 2.4 liter 4-cyl engine will remain the same.

Funny...in MotorTrend they didnt even list the Elemnet at all.

Yes there will be an 09 Element. Info is coming later. Some new features include a Touch screen Radio/Navigation system, Bluetooth, and the USB port.

Apparently this will probably be a next generation vehicle. Honda really wants to redesign it. All I can say is that a Navigation system with Bluetooth and a USB port will be available.

Here in minneapolis. Looked like a face lift and a few other small thing. One thing i liked as the owner of an 07 was that between the seats here is a storage compartment. What was interesting was that the storage piece could come out and be carried like a cooler maybe? Either way it was nice to see a storage compartment in between the seats.

Time to rename the discussion from '09 Element to 2010 Dog Hauler?
