Are you a pet owner who finds your vehicle insufficient and unequipped to transport your furry companion safely and comfortably? Don't whine any further. Holman Honda, the leading dealer of Honda vehicles in Fort Lauderdale is all set to present the 2010 Honda Element which has been upgraded with an all-new "Dog Friendly" pet accommodation system. The new Honda Element will go on sale starting November 16.

The specially designed collection of accessories for the Honda Element include a cushioned pet bed in the cargo area with an elevated platform, all-season rubber floor mats with a toy bone pattern, an extendable ramp (stores under the pet bed platform), a 12V DC rear ventilation fan, a soft-sided cargo area car kennel made from seat belt-grade netting, a spill-resistant water bowl and second-row seat covers with a dog pattern design.

Powered by a 2.4-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine, the Element is available with a 5-speed automatic transmission. The four-passenger Element comes in three trim levels LX, EX, and the top-grade sporty SC. The Element has long been recognized as a dog-friendly vehicle with an easy-to-clean urethane floor and expansive, flat cargo area, wide-opening side cargo doors, low lift-in height, and accommodating dimensions for tall items. The cargo area adapts to large items with its flip-up rear seats that fold flat, fold up and to the side, or can be removed altogether that gives more room for your dog.
