I have a conversion Honda Element by Freedom Motors, but I live in Phoenix, so can't talk much about snow. I did drive my Element in snow and cold several times in northern AZ and other areas and it worked fine, but I cannot comment on extended periods of cold, ice and snow. I LOVE my Element, but there are definite pros and cons for every vehicle. The vehicle is reliable, sporty and has lots of headroom. The cons include: small gas tank, tight space inside to manuever, and limited seating for passengers. Let me know if you have any other questions I can help with. Don.

I would call Freedom Motors directly and determine what the manufacturer will stand behind. They are located in Michigan, in the snow belt so I'm sure they will offer you a positive and timely response. They might also have some good tips too.
