Mentioned this before, but should be mentioned again and again. It's a compact ecoonomy car with luxury under-the-hood technology. see full Toyota Prius review |

Lack of lumbar support will translate into back fatigue on long trips. see full Toyota Prius review |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2009 Nissan cube
| 2009 Nissan cube Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
Unparalleled rear seat room and comfort in this car for passengers. Should be among the easier cars of this size to put a baby seat into the back, if we have children. Our (longer and lower) 2004 Sentra paled in comparison of back seat usability. see full Nissan cube review |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
Adults can sit there in comfort. see full Nissan cube review |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
SEATS ARE COMFY FOR LONG TRIPS. DO NOT BEAT THE HELL OUT OF YOU. see full Nissan cube review |
