Nissan cube

Price $17,788 – $21,608
Fuel consumption 6.3 – 8.1 L/100km
The Car Guide rating 75%(view ratings)
This car is definitely one of the most unique on the market. It’s tall, has an unusual window design and its front end still causes people to do a double take, years after its initial release. But this vehicle is practical too, thanks to its raised roof and large trunk. Although the cube enjoys tremendous popularity in Japan, it has been slow to gain a following here in Canada.
