How many does a 2009 HONDA ELEMENT seat?
& if you have one, would do you recommend it to others?
Source: Yahoo! Answers, 2 answers

It only seats four...which is one of the reasons I replaced my Element with a Scion xB2. Also, it's only a matter of time before the clamshell doors become annoying...it depends on how often you have back seat passengers. The plastic fenders were also a pain to keep looking nice, but I had a 2003...

2009 Honda Element service light question.?
Yesterday I was driving my Element and I saw a odd light, light up in the dash board. It looks like a horse shoe with an ! in the middle. This light has me worried. What is it?

Why should I also consider these? X

Scion's xB is a capacious, convenient vehicle, but has recently grown bigger and heavier (some 600 pounds greater than before), diluting its nimbleness; with that extra weight, its more powerful 2.4-liter engine delivers lower fuel economy without much more impressive performance than the former 1.5-liter.

The Mazda5 is probably the Element's fiercest competitor in terms of value and convenience, though its minivan silhouette might make it a no-go for some.

Finally, Kia's upcoming Soul promises a strong dose of fresh style in the mini-crossover market, though initial driving impressions rate it as somewhat less refined than the 2009 Honda Element.

For those who love and need vans—especially small-business owners—the Ford Transit Connect arrives for the 2010 model year with a four-cylinder powertrain and a customizable rear cargo area.
