This rogue, as it sits, is also similarly priced to the new Honda CRV EXL, but with the options you’re paying near Sport Touring hybrid money and that’s the top spec CRV with a hybrid 1:55 - No hybrid No matter how much money you spend on a Rogue, you will NOT get it with a hybrid or even a plug-in. - GOOD: 2:36 - Really spacious We’re going to break this down into two parts the rear seats and the trunk But yes, great space an comfort from the Rogue 3:43 - Features Here you get the smaller 8 in screen that we already talked about, but you do get ACP and that’s really what you’re oging to use all the time anyway You also get heated seats Although you cant get cooled seats on any Rogue regardless of price - wack You get a heated steering wheel here A big pano roof that even opens up front You get a reverse camera that’s pretty meh, but you can get a nicer 360 camera on higher trims And then this is optioned with Nissan’s ProPilot assist which is actually quite good and I liked it in the Altima the opther week too And then if you’re willing to spend more money you can get things like Heated rear seats 360 camera Wireless ACP Fully digital cluster 4:50 - The engine Anyway, what you have here is a 1.5T variable compression engine - that means the cylinders will change their stroke to give you more power or more efficiency, which is as simply as I can explain it without putting most people to sleep Overall, it works really well! This thing is rated for 31 mpg combined, but just like the Altima, I’ve been out performing that this week AND it makes a respectable 201 hp and 225 lbft - not bad for a 3 cylinder! 6:00 - Looks I will say, this thing looks pretty good especially with the special kit we have here 6:48 - The Drive Overall, it’s a perfectly nice experience here The 3 cylinder gives plenty of power And it makes a lot of fun noises like turbo swooshing to make you feel sporty The steering is pretty numb but the front end is sharp and likes to turn The body will then roll a bit, but it holds on if you want to drive hard But nost people will drive it like normal humans and it’s a great comfy cushy ride The visibility is fantastic The cabin is quiet and isolated enough The CVT is smooth and a non-factor most of the time 8:05 - Misc interesting things And then I want to wrap up with some smaller interesting things that I kinda liked this week - and for a full break down of all the features check out the companion video that came out yesterday - 9:11 - Conclusion
