Is the 2024 Nissan Rogue a BETTER new SUV to buy than a Honda CR-V?

FIRST LOOK: The Rogue is getting some changes from Nissan for 2024. On the outside you will discover a new front fascia, grill and wheels. On the inside there are upgraded materials and a new 12.3in infotainment screen. Under the hood is a 1.5L turbocharged inline-3 that is producing 201HP.

Comfortable for long trip, peppy enough for city driving, great mpg. I really don't understand, or more like don't care about handling and how some people rave about the likes of Mazda CX5 great handling and performance. The engine in Rogue feels smooth, sounds good. No jerky feeling when slowing down. Or is it just the way I drive that is too smooth? But really, this is a family car geared towards ride comfort more than anything. If I want performance/handling, I'd get some sport sedan.

I’ve owned 2 CRV’s a 2004 and currently a 2020 with a 08 pilot in between. I think this is much better looking even if compared to the new body style CRV. The aforementioned CRV is too vanilla in my book. Here’s my problem with the Rogue… no engine option. I’m 67 and when I think of Nissan I think of performance whether it be a SER edition or something of that ilk. I’ll be in the market this coming fall and I might test drive this but I’m afraid that the lack of power and the CVT won’t sway me… but there is a lot to like here. Hard to get it all unless you’re willing to sell off a vital organ and I’m not talking a Hammond! Thanks for the always entertaining and thoughtful review.

[@Bowhunters6go8xz6x]

Nissan vehicles look pretty nice and they are doing better on technology and interior looks but their CVT transmissions are notorious for having mechanical problems after only about 40,000 miles, I would not buy one on a bet. Not sure what this particular Nissan has but many Honda's and Toyota's use an E-CVT transmission which is a lot better, if Nissan is smart they will upgrade their transmissions.

[@tristana2955]

Don't let it be a bother it may sound crazy but the 3 cylinder has much more punch than the 4 cylinder. Speaking from experience my father had a 2020 rogue that ive driven as well and I believe they really didnt change the specs when they redesigned the rogue in 2021. We both now own 2023 rogues and the power difference is noticeable. Especially off the line you can feel the additional power from the extra torque that the turbo is producing. You will see for yourself when u test drive it and u will love the difference.

I also believe that the Platinum trim is still made in Japan. The others are made in the USA. Not sure if that will make a difference in build quality. I have a 2010 Murano LE that’s still in great shape, hardly any issues. 51k miles (live in NYC area where we don’t drive much). Only big repair has been a brake system replacement a few years ago. Strongly considering this Rogue next year. My Murano is great and was top of the line at the time, but I’m missing some of the bells and whistles, specifically the updated infotainment system.

All of them do it or just yours?

[@DavidTschoepe]

@@TheShootersBay Apparently it is a characteristic of the turbo on these cars. I took it to the dealer and they confirmed it on mine then they got a brand new one they just got and it made the same noise. It's not "loud" but if you are driving below 40mph and let your foot off the gas, you will certainly hear it. I would describe it as the sound a belt makes when barely squealing. There is a definite twirling sound that goes along with it. It is audible when the car gets below 2000rpm, so that's why I mentioned coasting. 1500-2000 RPM is where it can be heard. The faster you drive, the less noticeable it is because of road and wind noise. I plan to go drive several soon and see if I can see a pattern myself. There has been several posts online I found about this. I just can't believe this made it through engineering and into production. I am really hoping it's maybe a bad batch of parts or maybe parts from one vendor vs another.
