Nissan Rogue SL 4dr SUV Exterior. Platinum Package Shown.

The 2020 Nissan Rogue isn't the most exciting compact crossover around, but if you need something with a roomy cabin and ample utility, it does the job. It also scores well for cabin comfort, seat comfort and a quiet interior. Its driver assist and safety features are also innovative. However, many of its rivals offer similar qualities but with better engines and more refined interiors for about the same price.

2020 Nissan Rogue SV 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl CVT)

This is my first new car purchase, it replaced a 2004 Trailblazer so the driving dynamics are very different. I have driven the comparable Toyota and Honda offerings, and genuinely feel this is a great value. The tech and safety features are excellent for the price point. Some people complain that it feels sluggish, but my daily is an F-150 with a 5.0 v8 pushing 380hp, and I have never …

2020 Nissan Rogue SV 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl CVT)

This is my second Rogue SV with premium package. It has more bells and whistles than anything else in class and they all come standard. Test drove the Honda CRV which has horrible body roll, is noisy and an uncomfortable seat if you butt is a little larger. Test drove Toyota, Rav 4 which is more peppy but has fewer features as standard and the warning light for a nearby vehicle is in …

2020 Nissan Rogue S 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl CVT)

I bought my Rogue 4 months ago and i'm fully satisfied. Special mentions for the Zero Gravity Seats which brings outstanding comfort. Also Great fuel economy almost the same that my previous 2007 Honda Accord 2007. Fully recommend.

There's nothing to dislike

2020 Nissan Rogue SV 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl CVT)

When the lease on my 2017 Rogue was up I wanted to upgrade to the 2020 for the safety features. Because it has the lane departure warnings and other newer safety features, my car insurance actually went down. I also think my new Rogue handles better and rides smoother than the 2017 model. This car is the perfect size and has all the cargo room and versatility I need. It may not go from …
