| Nissan cube Fuel Economy: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
Does quite well for a car being aerodynamically shaped like a toaster. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
WE GET 30 MPG AROUND TOWN. GETS UP TO 42 ON HIGHWAY. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
Averaging a tad under 30 city and hiway, with an auto. Thats pretty good. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
I think the milage is pretty good for it not being a super-high milage (yet smaller) economy car. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
Excellent around-city economy. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Approximately 30mpg is good and meets my personal "green" threshold. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
For me, it is better than I had expected. It is rated at 28 city, and 30 highway. I have yet to get less than 32 mpg on a tankfull. That is mostly suburb driving near Atlanta. I am not a heavy footed driver though. |
