Got a link? I went to the NHTSA website and cannot find the cube listed under any class of vehicle. I even selected all 2009 Nissans.

Curious how the NHTSA classified this, Truck? SUV? Passenger Car?

Nissan calls it a truck, everyone else calls it something different.

They have it listed as a van. Go figure!

It's there. Go to safecar.org and select crash tests. Then select Van, 2009, Nissan, Cube. It even has videos. It's there, you just have to look.

I thought the Cube felt like a van

Time to slap that A-Team red stripe on the side... Vantastic!

Good, I'm glad they are finally in. That was the only thing that I was kind of worried about when purchasing my Cube. It was loaded with safety features so I felt pretty confident in my purchase, but still wanted to know. Thanks for posting this!

Wow thats great to hear!

Umm.. 4s are not that great-up to 20% chance of injury at just 38 miles per hour.
I was hoping for 5s for driver. The site may be partially down now but they still do not have ratings for Cube in their 2009 brochure: Cube is on page 19.

Can anyone post a screen shot of updated ratings?

If anyone has trouble finding it, I converted the page to a PDF and stuck it on my web space. You can see it here;
