Cubic Litres??

[Oppie]

Just saw in another NG that Saab had an advertisement in the magazine 'New Scientist' that touted the capacity of their new station wagon. It read '1273 cubic litres'.

Last I knew, volume was given in cubic feet or litres... but cubic litres is like taking feet to the ninth power! Something got terribly confused in the translation somewhere. Likely due to GMs involvement with Saab now. What's next for Saturn?

Search for '1273' it's way down on a long page
