Powering the Element is Honda's i-VTEC 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that also sees duty in the Accord and CR-V.For the Element's purposes, it produces 160 horsepower at 5500 rpm and 161 pound-feet of torque at 4500 rpm.It's mated to either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic, both of which come from the CR-V, along with its four-wheel disc brakes and automatic four-wheel-drive system.
