Nissan Motor Co. has issued the following press release:
Developed around the concept of “a compact three-row vehicle with outstanding practicality,” the Cube3 is uniquely distinguished by the following principal features:
’ Super three-row packaging
Within the car’s compact overall length of 3,900 mm, the cabin achieves one of the highest levels of interior efficiency in this class. The Cube3 is appointed with comfortable, sofa-like seats, one of the Cube’s salient features. Though compact in body size, the knee room and headroom in the second- and third-row seats allow ample space for accommodating adults comfortably. The large rear-door opening combines with simple and easy seat operations for enhanced ease of ingress/egress to and from the second- and third-row seats. In addition, a minimum turning radius of 4.7 meters ensures agile maneuverability for easy and comfortable driving in town.
’ Super convenience
Versatile seating arrangements can be configured in very simple operations to match the number of occupants and the purpose of use. The interior also abounds in handy storage places for stowing things away neatly, another unique feature of the Cube. — Nissan GT-R supercar.
’ Super coordination
Two interior colors and eight body colors combine to give users a wide selection of 16 attractive color coordination schemes for personalizing color combinations. Meticulous attention has been paid even to the colors of the control switches.
Origin of the model name
The model name Cube3 comes from the English word “cubic”, indicating the unit of volume or capacity. The name signifies that the excellent space efficiency of the Cube has been further improved to create a roomier interior and greater space for more versatile usage. In addition, the number 3 indicates that the Cube3 is a “three-row vehicle.” — Volkswagen space up! concept.
Sales target:
3,500 units/month
In the meantime Autech Japan, Inc., a Nissan affiliate, today announced the domestic release of the Cube3 Rider, a model featuring special vehicle specifications, which it has newly customized in conjunction with the roll-out of the three-row Cube3 .
The new Cube3 Rider adds the elements of “premium quality” and “user attachment” to the unique individuality imparted to the exterior by its aero parts. In addition to these elements, the bright half-pipe grille also contributes to the creation of a fresh design befitting this new-generation Rider. — Tokyo Motor Show sustainability concepts.
Interior appointments include a genuine leather-wrapped steering wheel, exclusive silver-colored seat fabric and black-colored door trim fabric, and exclusive bright instrument panel moldings with a grill design motif. These and other interior features combine with the distinctive exterior styling to create a product exuding unique character and stellar quality.
