    Fun to Drive!

    Fun to drive. Easy to handle and park. Amazingly roomy for a small vehicle. Dependable. Height adjustable driver seat. Back seat slides forward and reclines.

    Second One I Have Owned

    I love how funky and fun this car is! There is SO MUCH head Room! You can haul a ton of stuff, too. I just love it. I have purchased two of these, and I’m sad that the 2014 is the last year they were sold in the USA.

    excellent all around vehicle.

    This is the third new Nissan I bought this year, my 10'th Nissan, and my second Cube I have owned. It us a peppy little hauler. It is comfortable and has a lot of nice features. It is a great value. My wife was not sure about it when I suggested it, but once she drove it she was in love. Drive one and you will be impressed too.

    CUBE 2014 NISSAN CAR

    THE WIDTH BETWEEN THE FRONT PASSENGERS ELBOW SPACE IS VERY TIGHT AND NEEDS TO BE WIDER DRIVERS CUP HOLDER IS NOT EASILY ASSESSIBLE NEEDS TO BE CLOSER, WOULD LIKE TO SEE DOOR POCKETS ON DOORS, BIGGER TRUNK WOULD ALSO BE HELPFUL. LIKE THE GREAT HEIGHT OF INTERIOR AND LONG LEG ROOM THIS IS GREAT CAR FOR A TALL BIG PERSON. JUST NEEDS TO BE ABOUT 2 INCHERS WIDER BETWEEN FRONT PASSENGER SEATS FOR MORE ELBOW ROOM
