Is a Cube 3 different from a regular Cube?

Strugglerzinc the difference between cube 3 and normal cube is that it has extra seats to the back so it can hold 7 adults comfortably, plus it is a little longer to make room for that extra seat, couple of other things are different to due to the extra weight the cube 3 will be carrying such as bigger brakes and sturdier suspension.
Vega with regard to performance, it has a 1.4 engine that is very torquie so even though it carries that many people you can still cruise at 120k/h on the highway without trouble. when i am alone and coming to work in pos at 4:30 am i have clocked 160 k/h with o/d off, I don't drive so with other people in the car :lol:

cool...i always thought the 3 was part of some updated cube logo, didnt know there was an actual difference to the vehicle.

One issue i have always had with these vehicles and others of similar config. is how close the rear seats are to the rear door/hatch. A rear end collision is not going to end well for those persons.

The only issue I came across with the cube is with the transmission fluid. This oil life is registered in the ECU and must be changed accordingly. When changed it has to be reset. ONLY NS2 CVT OIL should be used. Any other fluids causes it to malfunction.

the cvt transmission is in the normal cube, I did not want that headache so opted for the normal transmission which the cube 3 has. personally I would have prefered the manual, but no dealer has seen it fit to bring any down, thinking we Trinidadians only like to drive auto, btw you can get the manual cube with a 6 forward gearbox......
