NY Show Preview: Honda's Dog-Friendly Element Concept Study

We knew that Honda was going to unveil some sort of concept study other than the Acura ZDX at this week's New York International Auto Show, but up until now, we didn't know what that car was. Well, thanks to the folks over at USA Today, we just learnt that Honda's "surprise" is a concept study for a dog-friendly version of the Element.

The new variant which might find its way into production later on this year has been equipped with numerous canine-friendly features like a built-in bed in the cargo area, a private electric cooling fan, a spill-proof water bowl and a mesh net that keeps the animal(s) separated from the human passengers (or is it the other way around...). Guess Honda gives a new meaning to the term "it's a dog's life".
