All seat belts have been specially construced into the design of the vehicle to not interfere with door functionality The front doors offer 3-position opening, and can reach an opening angle of up to 78 degrees. Rear passengers can reach forward and open the front door to exit the vehicle if nobody is in the passenger seat. The side cargo doors feature an "interlock" safety lever to insure that the front doors always open first. Overall, the design is anticipated to achieve a five-star side-impact rating, the highest possible from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). When shut, the base of the doors connect tightly to the body side sill with a hook and catcher system. From a safety standpoint, the deletion of the B-pillar is compensated for with a reinforced vertical beam in the structure of the rear door, reinforced lower side sills, and floor and roof cross members. Because the Element does not have a B-pillar (the pillar mounted vertically between the top and the bottom of the vehicle in the middle) loading boxes and other bulky items is much easier than a traditional four- or two-door design. The cargo doors are designed for maximum utility and easy load-in with a best-in-class opening size of 55.5 inches. The options are much greater than a typical SUV, truck or car -or anything currently on the market. Sit on the tailgate or "sidegate." Stand out of the rear skylight when stationary. Open the doors and the place becomes monkey island. With its wide opening side cargo doors, rear tailgate, large interior and durable body panels, Element provides the right features to operate as a base camp and a general hang-out spot. The design evolved into a rugged two-box SUV shape with traits developed to support a young, active lifestyle. In its early concept stages, a lifeguard station formed the design inspiration for the Element's general shape with upright angles and the arched roof follows the curve of a surfboard. The side cargo doors are free of a B-pillar to provide easy loading of equipment. The composite body panels provide a worry-free place to lean things like bikes or snowboards without jeopardizing the paint finish on body sides. I got an aneurysm being in the Honda Landmark dealership.Element body styling centers on a bold two-tone theme with integrated composite body panels that will stand up to more wear and tear than a typical paint job. How is someone like Mark Davis even mentally stable to work at all? This is absolutely absurd!!! Mark Davis assured me with his own words that his walk-out price for me would be under $30K. With taxes, titles, and fees, it was also an extra $2K-$3k. I understand we are in a pandemic and war as of now, but the dealership charged almost $5k for the Memorial Day commission and they were forcing me to buy the extra packages for the car, which added at least $2K-$3k or else they won't sell me the car. I highly recommend not coming during the holidays, especially Memorial Day, I walked out with a Civic Sport Sedan 2022 for $30K+. He was nothing but honest and patient with us the entire time and consistently kept up with constant communication during the entire process. Abraham on the other hand was an excellent staff member that helped me with the rest of the car process. He made promises and gave me his word regarding the shipment of the car, the arrival of the car, paperwork forms involved with parties, etc. Even though I was approached by him, another customer for which he had an appointment came in not long after, and Mark was struggling to give service to two customers at the same time, which was very unprofessional.įor the love of God and the whole management at Landmark Honda, this guy is nothing but. I encountered Mark Davis as the salesperson when I came into the dealership in late May of 2022. When I arrived inside the dealership, I was not greeted by a single staff member. We have never encountered any issues until this year. We have bought new and used cars from every model and trim levels. My family has bought numerous cars from this dealership for over 20 years and we have always encountered excellent, helpful representatives. Please consider taking your time and business in another Honda dealership, it will save you time and mental peace. * SHORELINE MIST METALLIC EXTERIOR * BLACK/GRAY INTERIOR * 4-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION * 4 WHEEL DRIVE * CRUISE CONTROL * 7-SPEAKER AUDIO SYST.
