We like that the 2022 Rogue Sport comes with a lot of advanced safety features as standard equipment. The spacious cabin and generous cargo room are nice too. But on the downside, the Rogue Sport is one of the slowest vehicles in its class. It also has an uncomfortable ride on city streets and is generally underwhelming to drive.

2020 Nissan Rogue Sport SV 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
Recently we leased a 2020 Rogue Sport SV and so far we are very happy with our decision. The trunk space is very good, rides well, seats are comfortable and overall a very good SUV

2020 Nissan Rogue Sport SV 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
Bought the car in July. In August, the collision warning light came on every morning with no object near the car (and therefore the automatic breaking system engaged). The dealership replaced the "faulty" sensor (it took 6 weeks to get the part). Next day, the collision warning sensor came on: took it back to the dealership. Diagnosis: faulty sensor...Ordered a replacement for the … replacement. It arrived in 2 weeks. The new sensor was installed: next day, collision warning comes on. I have not gone back to the dealership yet (it's the weekend) but I have a fairly good idea of what the problem will be. Keep in mind that when the collision warning system engages, the car breaks on its own. Also grossly underpowered, jerky transmission (CVT) and car accelerate/decelerate randomly. Definitely my last Nissan. Asides from the faulty sensor, the gas mileage is great (except when the faulty sensor engages: gas consumption falls to 14 miles per gallon). I do not recommend this car. This brand new car has been in the shop 3 times for repair (it's not even due for service: current odometer reads 2900 miles). Nissan Connect app does not work and Android auto is sketchy at best (connectivity issue). Skip this one.
Sticking Accelerator pedal

2021 Nissan Rogue Sport SV 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
Twice within 3 months the accelerator pedal on my Rouge sport has stuck. The only way to slow the engine from accelerating was to place the transmission in neutral and pump the brakes. After a quarter mile there was a noise like a spring popping and the vehicle slowed down and I was able to stop. The dealer says they could not find anything wrong. Are there others out there with … this issue?
Love it!

2020 Nissan Rogue Sport SV 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
I just bought my SV AWD Rogue Sport 3 days ago. The gas mileage is amazing and it has quite the pep for the small engine. I think it drives smooth and is comfortable, though I haven’t taken it on a long trip just yet. I got the version with heated seats/steering wheel which I’m looking forward to this winter. My aunt has had three of these (leases them) and recently bought a new one … because she loves them so much. No issues for her. We have matching red Rogues!
