Auto-Tech Interior’s 2009 Nissan Cube

For me a Nissan Cube is a car I would not take a second look at but the Auto-Tech Interior (ATI) Cube has definitely changed my perception. Marc M. of ATI envisioned an urban transport vehicle which could be used for people with an active lifestyle. This 2009 Cube S 6-speed features a host of aftermarket and OEM optional equipment. The 5-door Cube has plenty of space to haul around 4 people which is great during the work week or on the way to the club or pub. All the while listening to the JVC audio system complete navigation, blue tooth, front and rear coaxial speakers, amps, and 10″ subwoofer. The Yakima roof racks are perfect to strap down a few snowboards during the Winter, mountain bikes in the Spring, and surf boards in the Summer. The seats are even wrapped in waterproof Wet Okole seat covers so the transition from surf spots is without delay.

Marc chose to go with the TEIN BASIC coilovers which gives him the ability to adjust the ride height while improving overall handling. This pic shows the coilovers at maximum drop which is about -2.5″. According to Marc, the ride is still comfortable considering how low the car is. The full OEM optional lip kit looks good as do the 16×7 and 16×8 SSR SP1 Professor wheels wrapped with Falken ZE912 rubber.

ATI Cube grill in black along with factory optional front lip and hood accent give the front a more aggressive look.

As you can see there is still plenty of space in the back even with the 10″ JVC Arsenal subwoofer housed inside the ATI Cube specific enclosure. The best thing about the enclosure is that it can be easily removed just in case additional space is needed. Other modifications include DC Sports exhaust, K&N Intake,

None of the parts are custom or considered outrageous which just goes to show that you can make a good looking AND practical car with the right combination of parts.
