The Honda Element: before you buy
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the Honda Element for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. Before you buy the Honda Element, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
A buyer's checks
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
Engine and fuel
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Living with the Element
As an SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.
Good uses for the Element
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.
Rent it for a week first
Drive the Element on your commute before you commit to it. Try the Element on your commute, then decide. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Picking a year and a trim
Compare the years of the Element: fuel use and trims change from one to the next. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. The years table on this page shows where the Element changed.

Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Honda Element from us first.
Ask us about the Honda Element
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a Honda Element for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the Honda Element
Does CarmaCars sell the Honda Element?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a Honda Element before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
