Our Opinion - 2025 Nissan Rogue Review While most cars look like everyone else, the 2025 Nissan Rogue stands out thanks to its beautiful interior and rooms that feel much better than those in its competitors. The Rogue is likely to appeal to a wide range of buyers as long as they don’t expect it to compete with sportier models like the Volkswagen Tiguan and Mazda CX-50. This is because it has a smooth ride, good driver assistance technology, and comfy seats. The Rogue’s 201-hp turbocharged three-cylinder engine is slower than other small cars with turbocharged four-cylinder engines, no matter how hard it tries. Thankfully, the Rogue’s engine runs quietly and doesn’t disturb the peace inside. So, the Rogue has all the features of a small SUV: two rows of seats that can fit five people, all-wheel drive as an option, and a good amount of cargo room. But be warned: it will never make you sweat while driving down a winding backroad. But the inside is quiet and comfy, which will make careless driving a little easier to handle. What's New? The 2025 Rogue looks tough thanks to Nissan’s Rock Creek makeover. The Rock Creek Edition has useful features like heated front seats, a 12-volt outlet in the trunk, all-terrain tires, a tube roof rack, a new camera system with off-road views, and software for hill decline control. ProPilot 2.1 technology from Nissan is now available on the top trims of the Rogue. This technology improves the adaptive cruise control system and adds speed, stopping, and lane control. Some trim levels come with a 360-degree camera setup. Pros and Cons Pros Quick three-cylinder engine. Google tools that are easy to use. A big cabin. Cons Too much noise from cars on the highway. There is no combination out there. Simple fun is not high-tech. Engine, Transmission, and Performance All Rogues have a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with three cylinders that can make 201 horsepower. The inline-three comes with front-wheel drive and a continuously variable transmission (CVT) as standard, and all-wheel drive can be added as an extra. The Rogue is a nice and smooth car to drive for travel and commuting, but our team doesn’t like how it handles turns. This point of view stays the same. Safety To fight with competitors like the Subaru Forester and Toyota RAV4, the 2025 Rogue comes with a lot of features that help the driver. The Nissan SL and Platinum models can come with the ProPilot 2.1 hands-free drive mode. Visit the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) websites to learn more about the Rogue’s crash test findings. Some important safety factors are: Most automated emergency brakes have the ability to identify drivers. As standard features, it has back cross-traffic alert and blind-spot detection. Cruise control that adapts to semi-autonomous mode. Internal and External Cargo Capacity Inside the Rogue, there are style cues from both the Sentra small sedan and the Altima family car. The squared-off shift knob, the bi-level dashboard, and the smart storage sections all look great and make the car easier to use while adding a modern touch. Fabric seats come standard on the SV type, but faux-leather seats are also an option. The SL and Platinum Rogues are the only ones with real leather seats. They are made from a semi-aniline hide that has quilted stitching. If you choose the SL, Rock Creek, or Platinum trim, the front seats are heated as standard. If you choose the SV trim, they are not. Automatic climate control for two zones comes standard on all trims except the base S trim, which offers a three-zone system as an extra. Fuel Economy and Actual MPG Rogue’s three-cylinder turbocharged engine can do up to 30 mpg in the city and 37 mpg on the highway. With all-wheel drive, gas mileage will likely drop to 35 mpg on the highway and 28 mpg in the city. When the top-of-the-line Platinum trim is installed, the highway mileage decreases to 34 mpg. Our all-wheel-drive Platinum test car got an average of 31 mpg on our 75-mph highway fuel economy route. The Rogue, on the other hand, got an average of 26 mpg overall in our small SUV comparison test. Infotainment and Connectivity The entertainment system is a huge tablet that appears prominently on the dashboard. The Rogue has a basic 8.0-inch screen, but the SL and Platinum models have a 12.3-inch screen with software from Google. It’s the first Nissan to work with Google, so it has a lot of apps and a simpler interface than the stock model. You can choose not to have high-end features like in-dash navigation and a Bose sound system, but Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are already built in. The 12.3-inch digital gauge system included with the SL and Platinum models may be customized in many ways. The Rogue also has a big 10.8-inch head-up display and a wireless charging spot for smartphones. Range, Charging, and Battery Life Before, the Rogue had a 2.5-liter, four-cylinder, non-turbo engine. But during our first test drive, the three-cylinder engine felt stronger. However, in tests by Invoice Pricing, it took 8.0 seconds to reach 60 mph, which is only 0.2 seconds faster than the old four-cylinder engine in the 2021 model. Price and How to Choose For the price, the mid-level SV offers an excellent mix of features. It has features such as adaptive cruise control, a 360-degree exterior video system, an eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, 18-inch aluminum wheels, and a remote start. However, because the roof rack, wheel and tire package, and other aftermarket features may be more expensive, outdoor enthusiasts may choose the new Rock Creek model.
