2010 Nissan Cube: Official Details and 41 High-Res Pictures of JDM and U.S. Spec Model

2010 Nissan Cube  The wait is over for the new "boxy" Cube, or to be precise, nearly over as Nissan has released initial details and a full gallery of the Japanese domestic market (JDM) model but only a mere three high-res images of the U.S.-spec version which will make its debut at the 2008 Los Angeles Auto Show tomorrow, 19 November. Sales of the new Cube begin in Japan on November 26, followed by North American in the spring of 2009, and Europe and other global markets in fall 2009.

2010 Nissan Cube  The all-new, third generation of the successful Nissan Cube which has sold nearly one million units to date in Japan since its introduction 1998, retains the characteristic "cubic" and somewhat "toyish" styling as well as the asymmetric rear end of its predecessors. Judging from the pictures that Nissan published, it looks like the U.S.-spec model (pictured above) features a slightly larger front bumper that the JDM model. Inside, the Cube continues the same funky design theme as the exterior with a swoopy dashboard, colorful details and ton-loads of plastic.

Nissan claims that although the new Cube remains less than four meters (under 157-inches) long, it's even roomier than the outgoing model which was sold only in Japan. Other features of the JDM model's interior include sofa-like seating, a large glass roof panel that extends over the driver's seat for an open view of the outside environment, and a shoji-style roof shade.

2010 Nissan Cube  In what concerns the Japanese market model, the Cube will be powered by a 1.5-liter HR15DE 4-cylinder engine. As with the previous generation models, the new Cube will be offered in both front- and four-wheel drive versions. Prices in Japan range between been 1,449,000 to 1,911,000 yen ($14,900 - $19,700) for the Cube 2WD and 1,687,350 to 1,928,850 yen ($17,300 - $19,800) for the 4WD model.

Stay tuned on Carscoop for the presentation of the U.S-Spec Cube on Wednesday, 19 November.
