My wife and I have owned 3 Rogues so far, each generation. We currently own a 2021 Nissan Rogue Platinum and absolutely love it!! We drove the RAV4, the Honda CRV, an Audi, a Infiniti, and even a Lexus. Seriously this was the best of all of them. I know that seems impossible, but the features you get for the money can't be beat. We currently have 44,000 miles on the 2021 and have had zero issues. We love it!!

[@reyperez3424]

I’m thinking you have the 2.5 engine and not the 1.5T which is basically new

[@recordgalaxy]

44k is nothing , but can you at least reach 300k or more with how a rav4 or CRV can ?

[@bcrouse1]

Good to know since I’m in between this and Subaru

[@bradleyscarreviews]

This is out already??? You guys never fail to deliver the first videos of new vehicles…

[@BoopSnoot]

It seems like the first batches showing up at dealers are all SLs in the US. Handful of SVs as well. In Canada, the S-trims are showing up.

[@1996ChevroletImpalaSS]

Unfortunately, yes they are.

[@CarConfections]

Thank you, friend! They are arriving at dealerships right now

[@BoopSnoot]

While LEDs are already way more efficient (85% less power draw), its worth noting that LED reflectors are around 30% more efficient than LED projectors. So using the same strength diode, the reflector will be brighter. Reflector housings can be more shallow and they are cheaper to make, which is why we are starting to see more reflectors. Projectors do look cool, give design flexibility, and can give you a very crisp light beam with easier to implement auto-leveling, so sometimes you'll see the low beam be a projector and the highbeam a reflector.

[@DaveDDD]

That’s good info. Thanks!

[@neilaboniface6868]

Just took delivery of my 2024 Rogue SL AWD - the feeling of luxury is the best around - Nissan did not cheap out. Love my new Rogue

[@jakes5530]

Concerned about reliability with the CVT and tiny turbo, but this is hands down the nicest interior in the segment. Dollar for dollar, feature for feature, it beats out the CRV and Rav4 handily. Honda and Toyota just have an excellent reputation for reliability and resale.

[@gene978]

I was surprised when my sister and brother in law purchased a New Rogue with the 3 cyl. They LOVE IT. And I was surprised myself when I looked over the vehicle. Nice light sand color makes it pop with the black roof.

[@HALWG51]

I plan on buying the SL so I'm glad you are doing this one.

[@NovemberMan69]

Gotta love the Nissan/CVT haters. If you don't like them, then why come here?

Not quite the reliability of the Honda or Toyota cvt or e-cvt. I’m not a hater. All vehicles offer their own uniqueness.

[@eleanormassaro5195]

Because it’s a nice vehicle otherwise!

[@NovemberMan69]

@johnmartin7158 I couldn't care less about Toyota's reliability claims. I have a different perspective, having worked on them and dealing with the people who own them.This is nothing against you at all. Have a blessed day 🙏

@@NovemberMan69 I agree as well we bought a toyota cause of reliablity and nothing but problems will never buy a Toyota again, but i have a few friends that love them and worked out great for them.

[@DominionAnako-bb7ry]

The 2024 Nissan models come with some cool new features! They have advanced safety technologies like blind-spot monitoring and lane-keeping assist to help keep you safe on the road. Plus, many models have upgraded infotainment systems with touchscreen displays and smartphone integration. It's always best to check with a Nissan dealership for the specific features of each model. 😄🚗

[@sachemrock]

Welcome Drew and thanks for your contribution to Car Confections.

[@LJ-cp6qs]

I test drove a 2024 SL today and was so impressed. It was actually fun to drive and sounded great. The level of luxury was shocking for the price. Who knows what the reliability will be but as long as it's under warranty I'd drive it

Thanks for the review! I just ordered a Nissan Rogue SL 2024 for my company fleet vehicle in the color you showcased. Really excited to get it this year! Although my company portal didn't highlight the premium package so I am not sure if I can add that on post order submission. Moonroof looks amazing.

Hey Josh! Nissan did a great job with this Rogue

[@aliali-nz6ot]

A wonderful experience. It is possible to know at what speed sound insulation is measured

[@Thebusdriverandgamermorefan790]

Excellent video guys.

[@eleanormassaro5195]

This is really a nice car, but the fake sounds of the CVT transmission trying to create a shift sound is a big turn off to me. Nissan needs to come out with a hybrid version of this SUV that doesn’t have a three cylinder turbo in it.

[@johnmartin7158]

⁠@@eleanormassaro5195. You gotta point. Honda CRV and Nissan with the simulated gear changes are a bit pointless.

[@jamarparish]

The SV trim also has a new wheel design, not a fan of them but happy that there’s more distinction between SL and platinum

[@connormolloy5722]

Love it!

@carconfections Your opinion between this and Kia Sportage. Which would you recommend?

[@CarConfections]

Personally we prefer the Kia Sportage but it really comes down to personal taste because both of them are packaged quite nicely. Only the Sportage has a hybrid which is our preferred powertrain in the model

[@HenryCalderonJr]

I love the color and updated version. Wish it had just more power. But fuel economy is nice

[@RealScottPowers]

Please start measuring the cargo opening height as well.

[@SenecaRaine]

Honestly, especially the seats make this tempting, but Nissans make me worried about reliability to a pretty big degree. It's so bad that I look at other brands even though a close friend works as fni at my local nissan dealer...wish they'd sort that out as a brand.

[@wendykuehne3920]

[@sumanale5251]

Are we getting epower model in 2024 Nissan?

[@stevenjames1138]

I like the looks of this new Rogue a lot. However, I'm still worried about long-term reliability of both Nissan's CVT and having such a small turbo engine, especially with their new (ie, unproven) variable compression technology. Personally, I'd rather have a larger, less complicated naturally aspirated engine and also a hybrid model option for better fuel economy. If I could be sure that the powertrain would be as reliable as a Toyota or Honda, then I'd give the Rogue a serious look.

[@asparrow63]

As someone who works on them, if you treat the CVT with care they’ll easily last over 100,000 miles. They’re meant for light driving.

[@jefff7287]

@@asparrow63 what are the key issues you see with the VC turbo (for instance, I heard about potential oil dilution and gas smell)? Happen to know if the 2024 version is improved over the 2023?

like the car,only question is will it be reliable especially with the many roadtrips i'm planning to do?Or should i just go ahead and get the venza?I'm looking at long-term ownership

[@bentleysteven-leedolzadell6466]

for the most part yes. as with any new vehicle expect little things here and there.

[@kiLLinEmSoFTly]

If you have the means, you got to get the Venza sir. It's a Top 3-5 Compact/Sub available...and Hybrid. *Keep in mind it will be discontinued soon. Unless you can save many thousands with a Rogue...get the Venza.

[@JohnnyUkeOfficial]

The exterior changes are minimal given this is a refresh, but I'm glad they finally put a larger infotainment screen on this. Something Honda needs to do on the CRV.

[@papagen00]

the price keeps going up and cylinder count keeps going down.

[@josephpayton9151]

I personally think Nissan did just enough. It was already nice when this gen came out in 2021. These 2024 changes make it even better . Its definitely very premium. However I like the tuscons bolder design and transmission a little more. it also has a PHEV which js very appealing to me since i live in a more populated area. is this better than the crv and rav4. The CRV yes, thats less feature packed than this and it feels like its missing quite a few features. The rav4 is actually on par with this imo. I like this equally as the rav4, though the rav4 is more macho more truck like.

[@lawrencedanyluk797]

I actually like the SL, it’s still very nice.

[@ashishchettri-1239]

my Nissan rogue has 143k on it but power lost and overheating is biggest problem bad transmission otherwise is nice and comfortable midsize suv

[@jimmyr1683]

Fir $40k I'm buying a Pathfinder instead

[@lakeseminole]

Huge downsides!!!! 3 cylinder engine?????? It's a lot of stress on an engine to move a vehicle this size. Then it's only 201 hp and coupled with a CVT transmission which is rough. All of that plastic clading around the wheel wells with fade out and change color in easily 3 years. Why mention a 1500 pound tow rating? That is simply nothing. I will say the interior is nicely down with a lot of features. Maintaining easy to use buttons for the A/C is wonderful. I hate auto stop and start! Doesn't save any money and is just an annoyance. 58.9 sound level is high. CVT transmission is awful. I had one in my subaru Ascent. Yet, Nissan does have a great driver assist protection package on all vehicles. The fact the second row seats drop down flat is a a plus. auto lift gate a plus also. I might need to look at the Murano.

[@MiGSolid]

I failed to understand the logic behind the Cylinder reduction while other brands have started making Hybrid versions which are far more successful in terms of power and fuel efficiency regardless of the price bump.

I have owned over 52 new cars over the years including those with traditional automatics, CVT’s, and DCT’s. OF all of them I have come to enjoy CVT’s the most. When they are not abused by people with stupid driving habits they can just as reliable as all the others.

Bumper to bumper is a quick 3 years 36,000 miles but the engine would actually be covered but the powertrain warranty which is a slightly better 5 year 60,000 warranty. I have a 2021 SV Rogue with the 4cyl and I have 85K miles on it, zero problems. I change the oil every 5K miles, full synthetic. That 3 cyl turbo scares me a little too…
