2020 Nissan Rogue Sport vs Toyota RAV4

This sounds like a strange match-up in the USA, but in Canada and Europe the Rogue Spoer (Qashqai) have been competing head on for quite some time.

Why compare these? A) Because I was asked to by viewers. You see, plenty of folks compare cars that are one size up/down in size. It's common to be torn between a compact and mid-size sedan so why not two crossovers? Also, the CR-V hybrid comment was filmed before the lower (39 MPG combined) numbers were known.

i like the split screen comparsion

[@user-ry3le1zq9d]

I don't understand why you'd compare these. They're in different segments and one is a hybrid.

Thanks for the Grade A content. I'm already locked in on the 2020 rav4 hybrid, but knowing you're still testing out and showing us the how-to's makes purchasing it a little easier to commit (not to mention that sweet sweet Android Auto).

I love my 2020 rouge sports!!! I do 36miles a gallon!

We have had a Rogue Sport for a rental recently and it has been surprising. Great leg and cargo room despite being a compact crossover. We took ours on a long vacation and packed it to gills with luggage for four people, plus soft travel bags, an ice chest (centered in the backseat between people). This little crossover managed to carry it all around in comfort for us even with all that stuff. Don't let the cargo volume number scare you off, this will carry a lot more than advertised.

Love this style, Alex!!

Own 2017 Rogue Sport, pre facelift, it is great small suv. Had only one issue at 500 miles, all fixed and 12k miles later no issues at all.

[@IntervalePC]

Alex, have you come across the issue with the gas tank not filling up all the way to the top on your Rav4 Hybrid?

[@antalyal3004]

interesting that the qashqai in europe has much more soft plastic, especially on the lower side of the dashboard, around glove box for example

[@PatrickWilliamsI]

I will wait patiently for your Nissan Leaf versus the Toyota Tacoma!

Alex , my man can you do the 2020 outlander sport

[@aliendroneservices6621]

Hi, Alex. If this is the RAV4 Hybrid, that should be reflected in the title.

Thanks for your comparison, I've been looking at both. My results: If the Rogue Sport didn't have the CVT I'd most likely go with it. I recently drove one across country and back (over 4000 miles) and it was an extremely comfortable ride for such a long drive. I'm 6', with lower back issues, and the seat was great. It hit my leg in the right spot and created no back pain. Also love the driver door armrest when cruising, very comfortable. The power was not very good on hills, but for cruising it was fantastic.. I often drive to Alaska and back via Canada and prefer a 4wd or Awd vehicle (believe Rogue has AWD too?), but there is that CVT thing. A friend's CVT broke and was expensive to repair, so.. Most likely will spend the extra for the RAV4 even though I truly loved the comfort of the Rogue Sport since I drive long distances.

You pay more for the Toyota now, you pay more for the Nissan later.

[@marktuyet]

Have they improved reliability of the Nissan transmission ?

[@sammyt3514]

Interesting comparison, though a comparison between the Rogue Sport and something like the Subaru Crosstrek would've made more sense since more people would be shopping those two against each other than they would the Rogue Sport against the Rav4.

[@adstix]

Thanks Alex.
