Looking for a nice car to drive?  Then consider buying Cube vehicles by Nissan or a Toyota Sprinter.  Both are Japanese vehicles of the highest quality and each has their own unique personalities.  The Cube is Nissanﾕs newest release to the United States, and it is shaped just like a box with a lot of fuel efficiency.  The Sprinter has more classic lines of the older Toyota cars.  Both are a great investment.

The Sprinter was Toyota’s spinoff of its very popular Corolla model.  For every generation of Corolla produced, a comparable Sprinter was released with it.  More commonly known as the Chevy Nova in the states, the Sprinter was a joint venture between General Motors and Japanﾕs Toyota.  The Sprinter was released only as sedan or fastback between 1968 when it was released and 1999.  A hatchback edition was released under the name Toyota Allex that same year, and the Sprinter was renamed from the Allex to the Blade in 2006.  A Sprinter Trueno was also released for a limited time.  It is interesting to note that the major differences between the Sprinter and the Corolla for most of their production time together was the way the interior was laid out and the name badge on the back of the car.

Toyotaﾕs competitor Nissan has kept up with the times and they recently released their Nissan Cube.  It has been described as a box on wheels, and even though they look small from the outside these vehicles are anything but.  According to one reviewer of the Cube three Royal Horse Guards from Buckingham Palace can sit in the back seat and still have plenty of room for their helmets without touching the ceiling.  It has more cargo space than most of the other vehicles in its class, and the first Cube was exported to the United States for the 2009 model year.

The Cube comes with a 1.8 liter engine and top highway speed of 85 miles per hour only because of its unique shape.  When you look at its gas mileage, however, you forget the top speed.  Cubes can get up to 40 miles to the gallon on the highway alone.  While the Cube is all wheel drive it does come equipped with an e-4WB option.  This is a motor attached to the back of the vehicle that can be engaged to help the back tires grip in slick surfaces.  It is actually a very easy car to drive and park, and with it being lighter in weight than most other models it could be the beginning of a new car wave.
