Following on the heels of the leaked image of the all-new Nissan 370Z, an image of a production Nissan Cube has surfaced online. Just like the 370Z image, the Cube picture was brought to us via a presentation of Nissan’s GT 2012 business plan.
Compared to the current Cube, the 2010 model will lose some of its sharp edges, but will retain its overall boxy look. As previously speculated, the next-generation Cube will take most of its design cues from the Nissan Denki Cube concept unveiled at the 2008 New York Auto Show.
Recent spy shots have shown that Nissan has already begun testing a version of the Cube destined for U.S. dealerships in the early part of next year. The prototype spotted was a gasoline-powered vehicle, but it is also believed that Nissan is developing a hybrid version, with an all-electric model possible for the 2012 model year.

This one looks definitely more aerodynamic then predecessor. Then again it looks like Japanese cartoon.

The lack of a “C-pillar” is kind of awesome. I want to give its cute tush a little pinch.

And people have the balls to call GM’s “A” cars ugly….
As far as the c-pillar goes… if it’s anything like the old model it will still have one, but only on the other side.

Seems ok to me… should be a hot seller. That is what the revamped xB should have looked like.

It does loosing cubism, but becomes better looking in the process, if this is in fact the car.

Wow. This looks like a vehicle I might be able to unlock in Mario Kart Wii. There’s something too cute about it.

The overly radiused windows are the one high point, and make this much more distinctive than the upcoming Kia Soul and the bloated Scion xB. If Nissan can get this to market quickly enough, they will sell every one they can ship to the US.

A cube is not rounded….Nissan (as Toyota) lost the mojo.
