2018 Nissan Rogue Sport/Qashqai vs Honda HR-V Comparison

[@housepianist]

The review was OK but you're both kind of whiney, like the CVT. It was informative but there were too many pseudo-dramatic quips and vocalizations. It's like you were trying to be funny or clever in a 10 year old kind of way. Maybe it'll smooth out over time.

[@The_Notorious_CRG]

Lots of whiney. More than the CVT. Full throttle application and they complain that it doesn't have the thrust of an AMG. Driver's car? Come on.

[@AnthonyMaske]

lmao ... scrolled down here to make similar comments, I'm glad all you covered my thoughts about this review and spared me the trouble!!! I will say, these two remind me of IT auditors who reads some PC Magazine article and base their audit on what they read and conduct their audit with so much authority not realizing they sound like utter idiots ....

[@ronaldinhogau]

I've driven both, and the rogue sport was better. Not sure why they've been whining so much. It's like these reviewers expect a cheaper vehicle to drive and feel like a luxury vehicle.

[@Blingchachink]

Entitled pansy reviewers

[@cw4623]

Agreed. They're brainless. The Rogue Sport drives VERY well.

[@larryspiller15]

I dont understand the Honda lane watch diss, YOU DO NOT NEED TO SHOULDER CHECK WITH LANE WATCH. seriously.. so you claim it adds an extra step but it actually replaces a less safe procedure with one requiring a fraction of the body movement and can be done quicker. Where as blind spot monitors can miss things the actual camera will not miss things.

[@joser1065]

Hi guy, I just drive from miami FL to hackensack NJ two days driving approximately 1,300 miles. Driving a rogue sport 2017 AWD pulling a uhaul box trailer and the car surprise me it has a lot of power and I made it driving up to 80 mph some times. If you want power and torque get the rogue sport and if you want fuel economy get the honda.

[@LukeO-1234]

They should pull the 1.5t out of the Civic for the HRV

[@justincui]

2.0 NA would be the safer bet. Putting a 1.5t in it means that one more model will get affected by dilutiongate

[@scrambler69-xk3kv]

NO I don't want a damn turbo. Just something else to go wrong and shorten the life of an engine. Wish goddamn people would educate yourself on turbos. Maybe we would not have so many of the damn things on vehicles these days.

[@mnodaddy]

You should use the new updated HR-V not the old car

[@tonyren.tr5]

You could’ve waited and compared the HR-V using the 2019 model which has been out but not until the early 2019 in Canada!

[@alliejr]

When you say the Rogue Sport beats the HRV for interior volume, I think you're just reading off the spec sheet. Take each of these vehicles to Costco or Ikea and fill them up and then tell me the Rogue Sport is bigger. Nothing beats the HRV (or Fit). It is just a big square box and can practically handle more than anything else in its class and is a better hauler than vehicles a class or 2 above it.

[@rcondona4011]

Does the Nissan Rogue Sport 2019 provides xtra wheel?

[@Msleelee9487]

I'm taking my aunt to look at the 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport and I'm thinking about one also we like them

[@yigthekid]

You seem to have incorrect information. The Honda HRV has more cargo space than the Nissan Rogue Sport.

[@phillip33alexander]

I'm considering to buy Nissan Rogue Sport. regardless of their review i prefer it over over the rogue. love to sit up high.. rogue needs more horsepower least 40 more

[@blacksuan1]

the 2019 HRV has a volume knob now

[@SaiedKarmally]

What a great Qashqai VS HR-V idea. These 2 totally killed the video though. Hope someone else does this for the 2019 models soon. I really want a comparison that is logical and helpful. This was clearly not. I'M UNSUBSCRIBING NOW.

[@scrambler69-xk3kv]

So glad we do not have that stupid name here.

[@matthewgrayson8]

Where’s the 2019 model ?

[@pjay1281]

Hyundai Kona would be a better choice for my taste. I'm aware of the Kona lack of cargo space, but it would be more fun to drive than the Rogue Sport and the HR-V.

[@Blank00]

16:12 now people are complaining against Acura for putting in physical buttons, after people complained against Honda for when they took out the volume knob and designed the HRV without buttons. The consumers better make up their mind

[@ut1004bp]

Hmm.. you didn't mention (missed) what trims you are referring/comparing to but Black Interiors do tend to be more boring, but you also missed an important fact, the 2019 Roque Sport offers Remote Start...2019 Honda HR-V does not have as an option, Yea I have a 2016 CR-V, I couldn't go back down to the HR-V, also Fit sits lower and less ground clearance than your HR-V

[@3ThatGirlSteph2]

It'd be better if this was more objective and less just reviewing negatives. Thanks for the reviewing, nevertheless.

[@the6cow6god6]

sizewise, is the rogue bigger or smaller then the crosstrek?

[@yigthekid]

The rogue is bigger than the Crosstrek, but the rogue sport and Crosstrek are about the same size. The Crosstrek is longer than the rogue sport, while the rogue sport is taller.

[@The_Notorious_CRG]

I just watched it again. This is by far the worst review I have seen AutoGuide do.

[@dunggg]

I thought HRV some with Honda Sensing, which include ACC with slow speed

[@The_Notorious_CRG]

The HR-V's Lanewatch is a great idea and well executed. You guys complain about having to take your eyes off the road for the infotainment system but don't have a problem doing a 110 degree head turnaround to look for things in the blindspot. Also, If Honda and Nissan are making oodles of money selling the HR-V and the Rogue Sport than it's probably a good thing they don't base their marketing decisions based on one review duo's opinions.

[@jaekob2743]

I feel that the video was unfair. There is obviously another category forming between subcompact and compact which now includes the Rogue Sport and Jeep Compass. The HRV is not in that category and is less expensive than the Sport. Just not sure why you compared these two like they directly compete. Sure they might be cross shopped but not as often as maybe one thinks.

[@chrischiang3652]

J they are direct competitors....

[@jaekob2743]

Chris Chiang you’re very wrong. They even said multiple times how much bigger it is and how the kicks is a more close competitor.

[@howardkerr8174]

I imagine these 2 were compared because until the Kicks arrives they are both the smallest crossovers from their respective manufacturers on the US market. And as often happens, they don't quite match up. Oddly, from my reading of foreign car magazines, the Nissan is considered to be a very formidable offering....the Honda? Not so much. In Great Britain the Nissan is pretty much the standard all other small crossover utilities are compared to and is a very big seller. That said, Europe does NOT get the bigger "regular" Rogue and they also don't get these awful CVTs.

[@jaekob2743]

Howard Kerr the Kicks is already here. Has been for a month or longer.

[@kostab5982]

I have honda Hr-v 1,5 petrol. I like this car. Was watching and qashqai too. Both good. But I take Honda. It is look like more modern model. More interesting and many safe too. My mate by Quashqai 19/12/2020 one day ago So hi is very happy too. It is not so much diferent. My choise - big boot space and magic seats. His in nissan is reverse camera. :) Both good.

[@derrickjscottds]

Great Review and comparison! You guys are getting better and better. Having the both of you in each vehicle gives the video MORE Objectivity! Keep up the good work.

[@siseesan3147]

Derrick Scott yes it was amazing and their opinions give a good perspective of the cars

[@swanblake]

Happy you guys brougbt up how these take to get to 60mph. Expressway driving needs to be planned. Rogue Sport is quite poor of a driver while the HRV is great at drvivng. Both need way more powerful engine options like seen in the Kona. I'd go HRV for its looks, functionality magic seats, and fun driving characteristics

[@cw4623]

"Rogue Sport is quite poor of a driver while the HRV is great at driving" --- You've clearly never driven them. The opposite is true. HRV is trash. Rogue Sport drives amazingly.

[@swanblake]

Loved this comparison from you guys! Sharing your opinions and not holding back is refreshing. Thank you for the honesty. These vehicles are quite bad. People just blindly except anything as long as it has a raised ride height. Sad

[@alliejr]

Kinda agree, Blake... but it's "accept" not "except". Why HRV? Just buy a Honda Fit.

[@jcr65566]

jcr65566 Great revue thank for posting. I live in Australia here the Nissan Rogue Sport is call a Qashqai the Qashqai modals here come in the low end ST then go up to the high end ST+, ST-L, and the TI. I , have the entry-level ST. Though My wife and I both once had our own business. But now at 68 My wife and I are both retied and only have an income from our government pension. Ever second hand car I had ever bought has only last a few years. And there more trouble then what there worth. At our age we needed some thing reliable, that would last, And with what years we had left. We needed a new car. But we found out, that though we own our own home. The maximum we can borrow on a pension is $27000.00 But in to days market Most low end New cars even at the low end SUV, are around the $29000 mark. So we thought we never get a lone to buy a new SUV. So we thought a new SUV was out of the question, But Seeing Nissan bundaberg OLD Australia They had listed a four month old Nissan Qashqai 2019 demo, with only 3000 klm on the clock for $27000. in Australia A second hand car has three months warranty But A new Nissan even if it is a demo, still came with 7 years warranty But it from the time the car yard takes delivery. So as it a demo we still had new car warranty of 6 years and 8 months. All we needed was the low end St as all those extras like the GPS the better trim etc can cost you up to $ 7000.00 more. Even though our Nissan Qashqai is an at the low end ST level it still a great car . even though it dos not com with a GPS we just use our old Navman GPS. And the Naveman GPS is far better then the nissan tomtom GPS that come with he high end suvs .but even as a low end ST It is still a very impressive car to drive. The entertainment system in it is fantastic. Though our Nissan Qashqai is an ST We just love it.

[@scrambler69-xk3kv]

We know. Get tired of hearing what it is called where you live. Weknow.

[@eroc718]

I thought the hr-v would be more comparable to the kicks?

[@techpappee]

They specifically mention that. Did you watch the entire video?

[@eroc718]

Tech Pappee sure did. Nice that they mentioned it but it doesn’t make sense, why even do the comparison at that point instead of just separate reviews? The kicks has been out for a while now and other channels have reviewed it. Probably not too long before they could have gotten one for this video instead.

[@yorktmd]

Kicks doesn’t have awd

[@eroc718]

Yepp very true though the size difference is pretty drastic, which is why I just don’t see a lot of cross shopping between them.

[@techpappee]

@@yorktmd true but its still the hr-v competitor. Nissan compared them themselves at the Kicks launch. Its a sub-compact suv like Kona, CX3, ecosport, soul, etc.

[@hateusename]

Wow, both of you sound like the cvt, maybe auto guide sound use some sound dent

[@kevin12697]

Was that Chryslers headquarters in the back

[@techocrazy]

We have a Rogue 2.5L. It's got very noisy tires. The rear ones. I bought a 2019 Civic and I'm quite suprised how quieter it is compared to Nissan Rogue.

[@cw4623]

Doubtful. Honda is WELL known in the industry for having very noisy cars. Ditto for Acura.

[@ella1049]

I have the rogue sport and my brother has the hrv. im gonna have to say i like my car better. 😳

[@chedelirio6984]

"If you're getting on the highway and the truck is coming at you..." ... let the truck go by and merge in *behind* the truck. "Who uses AUX port any more?" Someone who has something other than a smartphone to connect. "The transmission is yelling at you, please stop..." Um, yeah, do please stop trying to do 0-60 in 6 with these little econoboxes, stop WANTING it.

[@thejompi]

USDM is shit all you see out on the road are SUVs, compact SUVs, oversized pickup trucks that can't take a corner well and take up space on the road with people that can't seem to know how to drive them.

[@Schaneification]

the Rogue is in the same price range as the CR-V not the HR-V . this review does not make sense

[@juwon1234]

Most SUV in UK top spec gets 360 parking cam. Eg Peugeot Citroen

[@smalltalk.productions9977]

this afternoon, i test drove the hrv at two different dealers. for $25k for the ex, i was totally unimpressed as a value proposition. there were lots of plastic. the backup camera is poor quality. the right turn lane camera feels like a gimmick. the ride was nice enough. but for the money these are selling for, i cannot possibly buy the hrv.

[@theoriginalkobby4157]

Let the guy talk a little. 😂 Just a little. He tries to make a point or interject a little and then boom sometimes she raises her voice to drown out his tempo. 😥 Its probably not intentional, she's just raising valid reasons but to be able to have a flowing conversation in the review, you have to build some kind of rapport. So practice more on how to let each other speak. Still informative tho. And I subscribed.😊

[@robinyu75]

Could be better to compare those cars to Hyundai Kona 1.6T AWD. Those cars are almost same and the slowest.

[@NHseacoast]

HR-V is sub compact to the Rogue. Not an 🍎 Apple’s comparison.

[@enr3870]

I’m leaning more towards the Qashqai because I can get it with a manual transmission. Unlike the HRV which only has a CVT.

[@scrambler69-xk3kv]

Not in the US. Hate that stupid name by the way.

[@augustrushdesigns3890]

Love the Rogue Sport exterior styling.... which it had more power. Do the reviewers realize these aren't sports cars? :)

[@swanblake]

They want them to be fun, not a Corvette. Calm down

[@augustrushdesigns3890]

Thanks captain obvious....

[@christopherdouglas8471]

AugustRushDesigns Don’t worry about Flake Swan, he just gets a little excited sometimes, no worries.As for the reviewers, as journalists, they seldom evaluate as a real customer would, (pretty well known, most journalists don’t buy new cars) they usually drive beaters that get left in parking lots. Credit to AUTOGUIDE for testing these little guys, at least they aren’t spending all their time in Jags, Porsche’s and Benz AMGs

[@augustrushdesigns3890]

Very true. I must say that Alex on Autos does excellent reviews, very practical and insightful reviews. I can't stand the reviewers that slam on the gas pedal and wonder why the Corolla or Sentra isn't fast.. :)

[@cw4623]

@@augustrushdesigns3890 You're 100% right! And Alex does exceptional reviews. These AutoGuide reviewers are idiots. "Sporty"-obsessed. They want every car to corner and handle like a "fun" (read: uncomfortable and exhausting) sports car. I commute, so I'll take light steering, soft suspension, and body-roll all day.

[@reyperez3424]

I still don't understand why people are buying this useless vehicles. I like the Rogue over these vehicles, about the same price, same mpg , roomier, cvt suxs in any vehicle period but in the Rogue with 2.5 engine it ain't that bad honestly. The Rogue it's the biggest in his class with about the same mpg then the competition and less expensive too.

[@swanblake]

Agree

[@alliejr]

Drove a rental Rogue recently. I was disappointed. I would grade almost everything as C or C-: infotainment, ride quality, driving dynamics, ease-of-use, refinement, lack of annoyances (why the hell does the radio come on every time you turn on the car, even if you previously turned it off???). Hondas, Hyundais and Kias are just way better in my opinion. Maybe the Rogue is cheapest in real-world pricing, but I hated it after only a few hours of driving it.

[@MoNoK15]

Honda HR-V 💯

[@billdeco08]

CR-V and Rogue both have slightly better gas mileage then the Rogue Sport and HR-V, but I would choose the Rogue over the CR-V, and I'd choose the Rogue sport.

[@swanblake]

You must be old and soulless, congrats

[@christopherdouglas8471]

Blake Swan Why are your comments so negative? It’s completely uncalled for to characterize an individual in such a way.

[@cw4623]

What an ABYSMAL review. The myopic reviewers (who fancy themselves gear-heads/"enthusiasts") condemn the Qashqai/R.Sport for being too comfortable and easy to steer, having a great seating position, and not being colorful enough (seriously-- that's your gripe?). Because, I guess... people hate comfortable cars? (Idiots) You should be dislocating your arms steering it. And feel every bump. Because everyone likes "sporty", right? Completely clueless, these reviewers. Qashqai/R.Sport is hands-down the best CUV I've yet driven. Venue is just below that, with the Kona. Kicks is not nearly has smooth, comfy, well-built as the Q./R.Sport

[@Bestuser1234]

car expert doesn't know how to use seatbelts 2:28

[@joli3422]

These guys are a joke. Because of these guys, this channel now looks like a joke to me. 1. The Qashqai is considered a SUV in category. It will obviously be a higher seating position, anyone looking to buy an "SUV" Classified vehicle looks for a higher seating position... From a consumers point, why would you buy an "SUV" if you want a low seating position like in a sedan/coupe. 2. Your driving must be as bad as your review if you can't even apply proper breaking technique in a vehicle. 3. It took the gentleman a week to find the additional controls(ECO,AWD Lock, Steering Wheel Heater)? How is this man working as a car reviewer? He can't even locate additional buttons that is placed in a standard area, in every vehicle.. 4. The lady that mentioned a better position for said buttons doesn't realize that you would only need to use those buttons maybe 2-3 out of 9 months in a year, when weathers not ideal. During winter time, when it snows(if it snow) and only if your adaptive AWD isn't enough. 5. The Qashqai does have an additional USB port in the center storage compartment. Know the vehicle you are reviewing. 6. Match the interior accents with the exterior colors. Lol. not even going to touch that one. 7. "Gear Selector Thing". I hope this is a hobby for you sir, if you don't even know what a tiptronic shifter is. Don't quit your day job, unless this is your day job. 8. Please lady for future videos, APPLY LIPCHAP. I can't say much about the HRV, but from my experience with owning a Qashqai SL is that, It is a great vehicle for the price to value you are getting. With all the features offered, I expected to pay a much higher premium. I'll admit that the drive factor isn't fantastic, but it gets me to where I need to go with ease. Cheers!
