Tell the XB/BB Owners to Get Ready

 

watch out scion! I see a lot of potential for a chill DD here. Looks pretty sweet.

 

looks sick i want one now. lol

 

"Shiro Nakamura, Nissan's global design director says "the Cube is coming to the U.S. market." The Cube gets 37 MPG and has something called e-4WD, which includes an electric motor that kicks in when you need it. The Cube is already out in Japan (see wacky Japanese commercial below the fold) and there were rumors it might come to the U.S. Now that it's confirmed, I wonder who needs the Scion xB? Well, Nissan has said they don't intend to compete with the Scion xB. To that I say, "Yeah right, whatever dude." Look out for the Cube's U.S. release in late 2008 or, more likely, early 2009."

actually the Cube has been out in Japan since 1998!! and its only changed styles twice i think. the new one just looks like a more concepty version.

"Nissan's boosted power, too, by adding its new-tech 1.5-liter gas engine to the mix. With 108 hp at its disposal, it has a little extra muscle on the original 1.4-liter, which has 97 hp."

 

about the same as a stock CRX Si. interesting...

 

Not a bad move by Nissan IMO since our market is selling smaller 4 cylinder cars more nowadays. I think it's ugly, but I thought the same thing about the xB when it came out. Give it some time, it'll catch on, but who knows if it'll catch up to the Scions.

 

Great interior design. Looks so awesome!
