Nissan Rogue Real World Fuel Economy Test

[@CarDietrich]

If you drive a Nissan Rogue, let me know what fuel economy you're getting in your car!

[@MrRowdy14u]

I have a 2017 Nissan Rogue SL.. on the highway I get 36 to 38 MPG... In the city around 25.. 63000 miles on it.. no problems..🙌😊👍

[@trentbray7813]

23 mpg city

[@MB-xx6xc]

I'm getting pretty much what you have but my OBC does match actual fuel economy.

[@ofcbob6391]

I've had my 22 Rogue for about one year, I get 32 mpg overall, mostly around town...but I drive conservatively, started that back when gas was tipping $4 a gallon!

[@BoopSnoot]

Highest 41.2mpg, lifetime average 32.3mpg.

[@davidwaldrop5195]

I purchased a 2023 Rogue in December of 2022 and just took an 1100 mile trip mostly interstate driving. I am not a speed demon and drove mostly at 65 MPH. I calculated the mileage the old fashioned way...the number of miles divided by gallons to fill. The result of the first day's travel was 39.01 MPG and the second day was 39.06. The car was loaded with approximately 750 pounds of people and stuff. Needless to say I was pleased

[@BoopSnoot]

I've noticed that the vehicle's fuel economy actually peaks at 45mph, so if you have any backroads you can get insane economy. I've also found that you can go fast on the highway if there is traffic, likely because of a bit of drafting effect like geese that fly in formation. I got my highest to date of 43.2mpg in traffic going between 70-75mph but in dense traffic all going that speed so I think it was drafting.

[@hotrodbmx]

Just brought mine home three days ago. Averaged 61 mph and 38.0 mpg during the 70 mile trip home

[@Freedom47f]

We bought a 23 Rogue Midnight Edition. Now we have almost 6000 miles on it. Delighted with the fuel economy, and power output.

[@Xomenra]

Bought our 2023 Nissan (fully loaded) Nissan Rogue in February 2023. Depending on where you live and your personal driving patterns, fuel mileage is completely subjective. That said - in the amount of time since purchase date, we have driven the entire west coast of the United States. Our average fuel mileage (in ECO MODE) is 41.7 mpg. It is an AMAZING vehicle and we are beyond thrilled with everything about our purchase.

[@shashankjp88]

How much did you pay for it?

[@Xomenra]

We had an excellent sales agent who met our terms on price. We paid less for it than we did our 2016 (which I just had serviced for 100k miles. Had the original brake pads changed all around and we had the 2-3MM on our pads - at the same dealership, two days ago), which was a bit over $34k in 2016. Our dealer on the new one gave us a FREE bumper -to-bumper lifetime power train warranty - but we tacked on a seven year service plan for just under $38k, out the door. And, our latest fuel record is officially 42.3mpg! I have been completely floored by how Nissan gets MORE power and torque out of a three-banger! I'm driving the 2016 and the wife drives the 2023. That new Rogue LITERALLY drives itself! Comfortable ride... Plenty of room and more bells and whistles than you can shake a stick at! We have -0- regrets. We didn't go for the 0% financing option, but our rate is at 4.99%. We have doubled up on our payments and have it over 20% paid down already. If you live in Oregon, I can give you my dealer's name! He handed me a fist full of cards a couple of days ago. He's driving us crazy for our 2016 because of its condition and it's under 100k - but the answer is a hard no on that! More info than you asked for but we are tickled with this 2023!

[@shashankjp88]

Awesome, glad you found such a good deal in this market. Not in Oregon so won't be able to avail your dealer's service

[@kenday4158]

My 2020 got 350 miles per tank. MY 2023 gets over 500 miles per tank. Same size tank in both cars.

[@justatemp2000]

Was that 36mpg what the onboard computer told you or did you calculate it yourself like Dietrich did in his video?

[@johnpa2006]

I have a 2015 Rogue AWD SV, 126000 miles, highway commute to work, I average 26 to 27 MPG. The 2023 is a very nice vehicle. I hope the seats are still as comfortable !

[@hotrodbmx]

Previously owned a 2017 and then a 2020. Now a 2023. '23 is way more comfortable, which was surprising.

[@snowkie]

2023 Platinum AWD getting just over 25 MPG in mixed driving. And only 31 on highway with cruise control. I’ve learned to not trust fuel economy estimates.

[@R1Wolf]

EPA is tested at like a ridiculous 55 mph. I just got mine as a company car. Can't say it matters too much to me since I don't pay for the gas, but it's nice for miles on a tank between full ups, so we'll see how it does. My previous Rogue with that crappy 2.5L really dropped when the tires got changed to some cheap as brand I never heard of, but my decision, I but Michelin on a car, Mickey Thompson on my Rubicon, and Pirelli or Michelin on my Ducati.

[@joeibarra9003]

How do we know you did infact use exactly 3.328 gallons? We can't. I will tell you this. I just traded in my 2021 Kicks SR with it's weak 4 cylinder 1.6L engine for a 2023 Rogue S with it's triple cylinder 1.5L turbo. I always drive it to work exactly 45 miles each way. With the Kicks, I always pumped above 11-13 dollar of gas each day (I like to top off). With this new Rogue, I never top off above $11. I supposedly average 30.9 MPG (have a heavy foot) with the Rogue. I supposedly averaged only 23 MPG with the Kicks. Money talks and my wallet gives the Rogue two thumbs up.

[@jimh527]

One thing you might consider. Did you use the same pump to determine total fuel usage? Gas pumps can shut off at different rates, when you're filling your car up. Sometimes it's the weather that makes gas expand, sometimes it's the calibration of the shut off of the pump.

[@CarDietrich]

I do try to use the same pump when I fill up again

[@jeffcollins7443]

So either the sensors aren't accurately tracking how much gas is being used or you're not always getting the tank to the exact level. I'd be interested to see how it works out over multiple fill-ups instead of just 1 fill-up.

[@BoopSnoot]

Much more likely the latter

[@CheekyTyke007]

Or it’s calibrated to British Gallons which are used everywhere except North America. 33 mpg US = 39 mpg UK = 7.1 litres / 100 km which is pretty damn incredible fuel economy.

[@stevendaniel8704]

Where and when you buy fuel makes a big difference. Winter fuel is worse than summer blend and the gas station brands do make a difference. I actually get a measurable improvement from gas that meets “top Tier” standards.

[@trentbray7813]

By driving in ECO mode in city and using cruise control to drive as much as possible, 29-30 mpg basic city driving. Must stay in the green bar area when in eco and foot very light on pedal.If using a heavy foot, expect 21-23 mpg city driving.

[@justacoolguy1]

I'm getting better than advertised fuel economy. You need to learn to drive and not go as fast as you are to get better mileage. Don't slam the gas pedal, this engine has variable compression, the goal is to keep the compression low.

[@CarDietrich]

Dude, you're getting better fuel economy because you're such a cool guy! I let the ProPilot Assist handle the throttle the whole drive, and it doesn't slam the gas pedal.

[@dandee28]

Do you know if your trip computer is accurate? Mine constantly jumps from 7-20 km per liter. Before they did the update for the software recall I was getting 5-8max average

[@richardpirrello6375]

I have a 2023 Rogue SV.. 1st no vehicle is going to get good mileage cruising at 70.. I take a 70+ mile trip each week.. my tires are filled to 39lbs.. I set my cruise control to 67 and once up to speed I shift into manual mode and upshift to 8.. and I consistently get 40+ to the gallon... the extra air pressure in the tires is not noticeable accept at slower speeds in the city... Unfortunately I disagree that you state the a 3cyl turbo is a GAS GUZZLER... suggest you redo the test and set the cruise between 65-67... and then admit you are wrong!

Do you live in a city?

[@stanpeterson8273]

The computer is for the most part very accurate. When you fill the car you can get an air bubble or maybe the vehicle is tilted one way or another which will affect when the pump turns off. The computer is actually measuring fuel flow and probably has a 5% +/- accuracy rate.

[@VuNguyen-mh4oo]

At 70 mph, there is more air resistance than 55 mph where they usually do the test at. Would you like to retry at 55mph consistently? Thks for your information. I plan on getting one of this.

[@CarDietrich]

No I won't be doing at it at 55 MPH, for two reasons: #1 I feel like most people drive faster than 55 in the real world, speed limits on interstates are usually 65 to 70 MPH. #2: if I try to do 55 MPH on the Southern California freeways I drive on, even late at night when I do these tests, I will get run over and/or shot.

[@craigcraigster5605]

I'm pretty sure if you drive in the 55/60 range you would get better results. Not everyone drives on the hwy at the max posted speed limits. Or even has the choice based on real world traffic we drive in. I'd be curious on avg you were passed by other vehicles during your test or were you passing more vehicles?

[@CarDietrich]

50/50. I was passing the semis and everyone else was passing me. I do my tests at 70 regardless of make or model. This Nissan posted the worst result I've recorded vs. it's EPA rating.

[@samkimak3937]

Just got a rogue 2023 base model. Haven't been able to achieve better then 30mpg except once or twice. I would agree that the vehicle can hit the rated MPG of 37 MPG, but the stars have to align for that to happen. The MPG rating is extremely ideal and is not achieved under 99% of driving conditions. I used to drive a 2011 Nissan Xterra which was rated for 21mpg hgwy/16mpg city, and I always got 20mpg on the highway as the actual milage; which is only a small deviation from the rating. The rogue for some reason, barely meets 30mpg never mind getting close to the 37mpg rating. If it's true, that the vehicle is tested at 55mph then I can imagine wind resistance may be playing a big role in decreased fuel efficiency because vehicles regularly drive 70mph+ these days and the rating standards are likely outdated. The rogue is also a very big and boxy vehicle to receive such a high fuel efficiency rating, my thought is that past a certain speed it becomes very difficult to maintain or build speed. My final thought is that Nissan engineered the vehicle so that it performed extremely well within the parameters it was tested for, almost as if it were designed for the fuel economy test and not the real road conditions. If you don't know, motors have an optimal RPM range where they can run very fuel efficiently, it may be that at testing standards (55mph) the rogue is operating in this range. But once outside of this range the fuel economy plummets. Anyone else agree???

[@tuan056585]

May be the gas pump trigger doesn't repeat well every time. Could you try the test again in a different gas stations? Tires pressure and Windy day may affect real MPG too. Thank for the video, I like it.

You also have to remember you have to look at the difference based on percentages. The difference percentages between 20-25mpg is much bigger than 33-38mpg.

What mode were you driving in this test?

After my first fill up, with 135 miles driven it took a little over 7 gallons to fill up…a little less than 19 mpg. I obey speed laws and don’t make fast accretions or sudden stops. It’s a new 23 Rogue SV and I have had it less than 2 weeks..Maybe it will get better mileage after the engine gets broken in better…I’m trying to be optimistic..

2023 Nissan Rogue Platinum. Just got 399km on a tank of gas. The 1st tank of gas in the vehicle. Took 49.475L. That's 12.4L/100km or 19mpg. All city driving, back and forth to work. Short trips dropping kids off at school etc. Not driven hard at all. Not even close to the estimate. So far off in fact, I might take it in for inspection.

[@jerryfacts9749]

When testing for highway fuel economy, you should not exceed 60 mph, and the terrain must be flat with no hills. Above 60 mph rate of wind resistance will increase substantially. Best economy would be in the range of 45 to 55 mph. Manufacture tests are normally performed on a testing track.

How many times did you let it click or did you just let it stop on the 1st click? Was the gas all the way full the 1st time before you left. I like to see the gas at the top of the tank and slow gill it so I know it's exactly in the right spot. Driving only 110 miles and filling it again isn't going 2 be accurate even at the same pump it could cut out at a different time.

[@CarDietrich]

One click, same pump, same station, same night. That's how I always do it

[@occckid123]

@@CarDietrich ok and there are variables even at the same pump if you just let it click 1 time. Doesn't necessarily mean that it stopped in the same exact space. Inwas at a pumpnthe other day and it let me fill up then clicked but then when I tried to put more gas in it was all the way full but other times after the 1st click I can put in an extra gallon before the gas is at the top. It will vary. Maybe it clicked .2 gallons later this time or .5 who knows!

[@CarDietrich]

The pump will always let you put more gas in because in modern cars the tanks have essentially overflow spaces. But if you fill those up consistantly it will eventually damage the emissions control equipment in there and you'll end up having to replace sensors and other items, so its best to just let it click and be done with it. I agree this is a variable that could change from fill up to fill up, but I do what I can to control it in the best way I think is possible.

[@dougmanck4149]

Thanks for the real world test. Thought your first highway only test was too short but the week long drive with over 12 gallons of gas use should be very accurate.

[@ThanhThang-nq9wx]

why at 5:01 minute your gas gauge show below 1 but at 5:02 minute your gas gauge show at 1? I think you should fill up full tank and drive til the fuel light come one with none stop. when you stop or park with engine on it's still cost you gas. you can pull more mpg with premium fuel than the regular fuel. Overall you can't get accurate MPG because most of the fuel brand is different, if you get the gas from the SHELL you get more MPG than RaceTrac and QT

[@CarDietrich]

Because I filled it up to check the gas mileage, at the same pump at the same gas station.

[@Antiorganizer]

You can't accurately gauge how much fuel you put in with just 110 miles, because each pump cuts off differently. You'd need to drive this a number of tanks and log everything. Only then can you make a judgment. Also, even if your unreliable test was accurate, 33 mpg is really not bad at all for an SUV of this size! And then lastly, I think the ones being negative about the 3cyl vc turbo Rogue are either people that are dring something else, or ones that have the older 4cyl engine and they want to feel good what they have or want by putting down the 3cyl. That's called confirmation bias.

[@CarDietrich]

I fill it up at the same pump at the same station on the same night. It's as close as I can figure out how to do it. As for confirmation bias, people see what they want to see. I just do the math.

Consumer Reports got 25 overall, 17 city, and 34 hwy. Your testing seems to confirm those numbers. Brick-like aerodynamics aren't helping it. Hybridization might. The Outlander with which this shares a platform was designed as a PHEV. Not sure why Nissan isn't offering that as well.

[@CarDietrich]

I honestly think it would do the same or slightly better with the same transmission and the plain old 2.5 liter 4-cyl. It wouldn't test as well on the EPA cycle, but real-world it would probably do 1-2 mpg more and it would be cheaper to build.

[@toronado455]

@@CarDietrich Would it be cheaper to build? It has one extra cylinder. I suppose without the turbo it's less complex.

Realize that this "test" isn't accurate. Driving just 110 miles, while different pumps have different cut offs and whatnot. Anyway, if you're getting 37-38 I wouldn't change a thing! Wait until hybrids and/or phev become more sanely priced and then look at changing. Not right now.

Mpg varies based on idle time and driving style. If you're giving alot of gas then you use more fuel drive easier and idle less mpg will increase. I bet if I had this vehicle I would avg around 35mpg easily. I know how 2 get good gas mileage with my right foot.

[@CarDietrich]

My test eliminates idle time almost completely. I let the cars with adaptive cruise control systems (like this one does) control the throttle. It eliminates variables as much as possible. I see from your channel you are a Nissan fan. If you want to do your own test on a 2023 Rogue go ahead. But I test a lot of cars this way, I didn't treat this one any differently. It just performed poorly compared to its EPA rating

[@occckid123]

@@CarDietrich no what I'm saying is the pump issue where if you do the same test again you won't get the same gas mileage and also the fuel blend usually reduce fuel economy by 10% for the winter blend by itself. Yes I drove nissan but this isn't about that. Its about driving that short of a range and checking the mpg. Did the tank even come off full for the mpg test. You don't show the method you use for filling up and also what other vehicles have you drive on the everyday test and what's the mpg not just the hwy. I see you included a week of driving for this rogue but couldn't really find it for any of the ither cars youbtested though I didn't watch everyone of your videos. If it got 33 with winter blend compared to 37 the percentage isn't far off honestly and you're going overboard for no reason. Like insaid before my coworker does mixed driving but alot of backroads and highway but she drives a little heavy and her readout is still 37. Even if it's 33 in the real world pump that's till higher than her epa since she has the 19 inch wheels and awd it's rated for 34 on the hwy. In reality she is getting what's she's supposed to get and is much better than her chevy small suv with a 4cyl that was at 27 on the readout.

[@occckid123]

@@CarDietrich oh i wass talking about all the cold starts you did will reduce mpg considerably during the warmup periods that you did for the weekly test.

[@CarDietrich]

Oh yeah, I'm not surprised it got bad gas mileage on that second tank I measured. It was the first one where I was disappointed in it.

[@occckid123]

@@CarDietrich I know but 33mpg still isn't horrible plus like I said I don't think the computer is a whole 5 mpg off. Doesn't make sense. What makes sense is that the pump may have not stopped exactly the 1st time you put gas in it.

[@fishraider7897]

Bigger engine does not equal better MPG lol. My Maxima 2013 300 HP does like 18 MPG.

[@wikolib6821]

Great fuel economy test, thanks. A three cylinder turbo, who woulda thunk. Understand Ford is also doing 3 cylinder ecoboosts in the Escape and Bronco Sport. I've rented the previous gen Rogue and found the body to be like a tin can. Good utility but otherwise not so much. I actually liked the original Rogue when I rented one, the body was a little smaller and it felt more squared away. No matter how much tech you put into a car it still comes down to quality, reliability and drivability. Thanks again.

[@CarDietrich]

I actully did one of these tests on a Bronco Sport with the 1.5 Ecoboost last year and it exceeded it EPA rating. I think Nissas got a little too clever with their variable-compression turbo technology.

[@MB-xx6xc]

Will this be grounds for a class action lawsuit? The car is way off from what it is advertised!

[@CarDietrich]

I'm not sure if it rises to that level. It could if it can be proved that Nissan played with the EPA ratings on their end. I do not actually own this car so either way I'm not involved

[@Justaeuropeanman]

I have driven my 2023 3 cylinder turbo from California to Kansas and back about 3,000 miles round trip and I was getting about 535 miles per tank which equaled about 38 mpg I don’t know what was wrong with yours but mine does excellent on mpg

[@simonjoseph5731]

can you do one for 2023 honda crv hybrid please

I am looking for one of those to test actually

Consumer Report Overall 25 / City 17 / Hwy 34 mpg

[@maxpower6658]

Epa estimates are about as reliable as weather forecasts. A three cylinder engine should be getting 45-50 mpg. No matter what car it is in. That said what gas are they testing these cars with to get that mpg? Do not forget using ethonal gas reduces mileage by a good percentage. Moral to the story is ignorvthe damn Epa and their BS. Stop putting ethonal in the gas and let the car manufacturers alone to get the best performance from the vehicles they are trying to sell.

[@coreyepperson6978]

My 23 is on the money????

[@CarDietrich]

Could be

[@occckid123]

I doubt the computer overestimated by 5mpg. I belive it's the pump.

[@donkeykong1336]

My 2023 Rogue estimated 498 miles to the tank when we left the dealership and we now think it will end up at around 300, so it’s now at a quarter tank left at 216 miles we have been driving on eco mode so we switched it to standard today, we bought this car because we were told it was the closest to hHybrid and now we may be finding out that is not the case AT ALL! super bummed! 200 miles is a huge difference from the computer to actuals, the murano we traded in had better gas mileage

[@donkeykong1336]

I wanted to give an update, we stopped using eco mode and the difference is amazing, definitely getting way better mileage without the eco mode.
