Nissan has brought an electric version of the Cube to New York, showcasing the company's commitment to cars propelled by clean electric energy. Called the Denki (Japanese for ‘electric'), this one-off concept version of the Cube sports an electric motor and laminated lithium-ion batteries located under the floor and seats.

Few exterior design details have been changed to differentiate the concept from the second generation production Cube unveiled in 2004, most notably the 'electric-themed' front grille (adorned with lightning bolts and an AC power charging point behind the badge). Headlamps with an electric current and LED surrounds join smaller lamps nestled within the bumper, an aesthetic echoed at the rear. Inside the electric yellow cockpit is a revised IP.
