Honda Element
As the ancestor of cubes on wheels in North America, the Honda Element continues its career without major changes. It is still as box-like as ever and boasts an ever more versatile interior since it is possible to fold the rear seats to the sides, enlarging the trunk. It is powered by a 166 horsepower 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine linked to a five-speed automatic transmission. Depending on the version, the Element comes with a front or four-wheel drive system.
