Is the Rogue Sport as competent as the larger Rogue we’re driving for a year? We explore the differences between these two SUVs.
Consumers don't always cross-shop vehicles in the same segments. From price to fuel economy and design, there are many reasons you might consider two vehicles of different sizes. One unconventional rival to our long-term Nissan Rogue is its little brother, the smaller Rogue Sport. But is the baby Rogue Sport as competent and well rounded as our Rogue?, allowing an additional 5.1 inches of rear legroom and making it more adult-friendly.
Don't be fooled by the name—the Rogue Sport isn't a more athletic alternative. Down 40 hp from our 2021 Rogue, it also suffers from slow acceleration, requiring 9.8 seconds to reach 60 mph. Smaller doesn't mean more efficient, either. The larger Rogue wins the fuel economy contest. Most trims get an EPA-rated 26/34/29 mpg city/highway/combined with FWD and 25/32/28 mpg with AWD . Meanwhile, the Rogue Sport maxes out at 25/32/28 mpg and 24/30/27 mpg, respectively.
Both crossovers boast essential standard driver assist features, such as blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert, and, as well as remarkably useful upgrades like a 360-degree camera system and ProPilot advanced driver assist systems. But the Rogue has a few extra goodies: a larger standard touchscreen, available 12.0-inch digital instrument cluster, and head-up display. Although these options are nice to have, we feel OK without them on our long-termer.
The Rogue surpasses its little brother in most areas. In this case, we'd recommend sizing up for the Rogue's spacious interior, more modern cabin, and better performance.
