2020 Nissan Rogue review: It’s old, but hey its actually pretty great

Antiquated is not necessarily synonymous with awful. This compact crossover, for instance, has more than a few gray hairs, but it’s still a decent choice that appeals to thousands and thousands of new-vehicle shoppers every year.

Been driving a Rogue for 5 years, ZERO problems with CVT transmission. Please muppets!

[@carfanfan]

It's called the X-Trail in South Africa and it's very popular here. Price wise, it beats the competition when it comes to standard equipment.

[@Slevin-Kelevra]

Bought a 2014 new off the lot. Great build quality. Clocking near 800k on it. Never had any issues. Only thing I can knock it for is that it is under powered for its size and wish it had a 5cyl or 6cyl option or just more power. They could get alot more power out of those 2.5L 4cyls if they wanted to.

[@JokerG16]

@Greg Droder yeah that’s why I gave mine up. It was unbearably slow. Great car though

[@philparkerus]

Love the hat! And excellent review as well.

[@Edonb1]

Thanks for the review, you are so funny!

[@TheM3csl]

Lets do a "Cole and Cooley" car show!😍

[@garbuckle3000]

I agree. When I bought my Rogue 4 years ago, it was good. Now, it's merely adequate. It'll get you from A to B, and the storage is good, but the A pillars are massive, and the CVT is meh. I'll wait to see what 2021 brings, but will probably switch to something else. Also, why is the light interior only available with white exterior in Canada? Odd

[@BigHeadClan]

Man those audio levels when your outside the cabin are brutal... Also didn't people go to Arby's for the curly fries?

[@ibbypiracha5021]

Do anyone feeling the cold outside into the Nissan Rogue? For example, I turned on the heat for 30 minutes then turn it off. In 15 mintues later, I don't feeling the heat in my car, like the heat went to out and I feeling the cold outside like the cold air into my car..

[@user-ry3le1zq9d]

I like the Nissans

[@theylied1776]

Never buy a Nissan with a Jatco CVT! Nissan just settled their THIRD Class-action lawsuit involving FIVE models with the Jatco CVT! They are defective! Look it up for yourself.

[@CoolJZero1]

I like this guy please don't fire him

[@welfare3417]

My first vehicle I can say the best body is on the Nissan Rogue krom Edition. Including the chrome rims I'm a very cool guy with swag and i felt in luv with Nissan lol u call it betty white i can say the body style hasn't really changed i guess the Murano would be a good pick because the engine is a little stronger. But its definitely out doing the Toyota body style cars suvs look so basic Lexus SUVs. Had the best body shapes i seen some look like space ships i guess i wait tell the cyber truck come out and get that i probably keep my Nissan sense it my 1st suv and i had to added alot of features like touchscreen push start door speakers Alpine bigger rims😂 overall Nissan prob last forever i really luv Nissan vs the other cheaper brands i can talk about my suv allday 😂

[@ivanlowjones]

Any self proclaimed "cool guy with swag" who hypes his "blingy" Nissan Rogue, might want to ponder the true meaning of life.

The people complaining are probably bad drivers. If you don't take care on how you drive... your going to have malfunctions.

[@leilaroa3477]

@@dogs6461 Not true. I have Rogue 2020 and bad already . I purchased New and now it is garbage. engine lights On and issues on fuel pump .

[@DimSum9685]

Bought the 2019 Rogue S AWD in October. Got easily attached to it being an owner of a 2012 Altima 2.5 S. Although it feels like they ripped the engine out the Altima and threw it in the rogue it seems more responsive. Even though I own a base model, I like the tech it has in it. Surprisingly fuel efficient. Control wise, it's responsive for it's class. I don't drive it to it's upper limits, I live in the mountains so needed an AWD, was perfect for road trips, great for my first SUV. However... Lack of horse power compared to other SUVs I've driven.

[@mzjriley2012]

Is there a certain year that it was not bad?

[@rafaelg9016]

This is a great vehicle

[@02werewolf]

it is bad it is a nissan

[@swanblake]

No actually the Rogue is quite bad. Gutless power and an awful Jatco CVT. Could not pay me to buy one. I'm sure Nissan will blame Ghosn for this one

[@MoDoza623]

Is that you Scotty kilmer? 🤣 But what you say is true.

[@DMaster27]

Yep. Nissan is quite bad.

[@digitaldoc100]

The Rogue has been perennially underpowered, and not sure why Nissan has left it that way. The thing has needed a better engine since the 1st gen came out, and Nissan just kept shoving them out the door. Here's hoping that Nissan makes the Rogue more competitive at some point, and migrates the 2.0T into the platform, and also loses the CVT. However, given Nissan's recent performance, this seems less and less likely as their redesign is likely being done on the cheap.

[@Oliver-rt4yl]

​@@digitaldoc100in Europe the Rogue is sold under the name X-Trail and comes with a 7-speed DCT transmission. Though you can also get it with a manual or the CVT.

[@S.Alonzo]

Just like a gay man. Throwing shade left and right. That Betty White shade was serious. 😂😂😂

[@paulm6481]

Garbage CVT , stay away unless you want to have major transmission problems costing 4000

[@kevinbarry71]

2014? This is one of the newer Nissan offerings. It's a terrible vehicle. Free bonus, self-destructing transmission.

[@zhila5958]

nissan died way long ago. they used to make one of the best cars. but not anymore

[@BrogeKilrain]

a real trans instead of CVT is a must. I wont even look at Honda, Toyota, Audi or Subaru models that have one.

[@MoDoza623]

You buy a Nissan when you can't afford the lease on a Toyota or a Honda. And the same goes for Infiniti, if you can't afford a luxury vehicle and you want to show that you have money you buy an infiniti!🤣 It's funny but it's true!

[@dogs6461]

Toyota and Honda are cheaply made and are not worth the money.

[@dogs6461]

Infiniti is even worse. People are suckered into thinking they have to pay more to have quality.

[@vulfieamadeus8306]

Had a Rogue as a rental for a long road trip. Plenty of room and decent exterior styling, but just not a great car. Good lower end power, but weak as the revs and speed increase. The steering was awful and artificial (and I disabled the lane keeping which also was terrible) and the interior was nearly of the "hose down" variety. I'm not a huge Honda fan, but this makes the CR-V look like a premium model. Personally, the best cars are coming out of Korea (or Georgia/Alabama) with Hyundai and KIA.

[@howtobebasic2122]

the CVT's are junk

[@Composurezen]

You people sound like broken record "cvt" "jatco" "trash" it isn't as bad as you bark they are, nissan cars are more quality than honda lately.

[@JokerG16]

@Composure omg thank you! Nissan made this Rogue well built. I traded mine in at almost 50k miles and aside from oil changes, all I did was change the brakes and tires around 43k miles. Nothing else was wrong with it.

[@DMaster27]

The name for this vehicle in other countries is a vehicle that Canadians and American used have called X-Trail. You all probably remember how horrible that car is.
