NISSAN CUBE Uncommon

As of 2026 Q1, 1,232 NISSAN CUBEs remain registered in the UK — an increasingly uncommon sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 1,241 in 2025 Q3 — only 99% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 9 cars. Numbers have held broadly steady over recent years rather than falling away — often the mark of a model that owners deliberately preserve.

About the CUBE

The Nissan Cube is a mini MPV produced by carmaker Nissan between 1998 and 2019. Initially sold only in Japan, the Cube was sold in North American markets from 2009 to 2014, and in European markets from 2009 to 2011. In Japan, it was exclusive to Nissan Red Stage dealerships. It is a slightly larger load-carrying alternative to the Nissan Micra hatchback. While production for the North American market ended in 2014, the Japanese-market Cube lasted until December 2019.
