"My Rogue handles very well, and I love the backup camera! Good sound system, and very comfortable to sit in-in traffic. I like the styling of the car-and see many on the road...now I know why."

"I purchased this car brand new over a month ago, and i travel 56 miles one way each day to work and it drives so smoothly... I get close to 28 miles a gallon on the highway, it just depends on traffic. Besides that my we really have enjoyed this car, I got my first oil change last week and it was $35.00 which was not bad and they also washed my car at no extra charge. I really like the navigation system and the hands free. I never thought about buying a Nissan, but i would have to say its been 5 years since my last purchase of a car and I am pretty impressive. After I bought my car that is all i see everyday on the road is Rouge's. So that says a lot if they were bad cars you would not see them on the road as often."

"We are very satisfied with our 2012 Rogue Special Edition. It is getting about 26 mpg in town and on the highway which is one of the reasons why we bought it. The backup camera is a great safety feature as well. We are very satisfied with this purchase and would recommend to others."

"I love the car except for two things: that from a dead stop it is to slow to get out of it's own way and that the road noise is almost unbearable. Everything else is good."

"Sadly I leased it and I love everything about this car except the driver seat is tipped so I cannot reach the floor( I'm 5ft tall) unless I am so close to the steering wheel that I can barely turn it. Whenther I am this close or not the tipped direction cuts into the tendons on the back of my knees. It is so sad because I enjoy every other aspect of this car. I test drove everything in this size and this was the most quiet and the nicest interior for getting the lowest model."

A Happy Rogue Driver

"After test-driving and looking around for about 2 months, we finally decided to go for the Rogue S Spec Ed. for two reasons. Size and Value. Though it looks kind of tiny little SUV, it has lots of space in side. Both for passenger and for cargo to haul around. The leg room in the back is superb. And the price is just right. We were able to get the Spec Ed for less than 21k OTD. Even base Hyundai Tucson was costing us more than that, and that too with a 2.0 liter engine. The ride quality is great, the built is fantastic. It has enough power to move around and zip through the lanes and the CVT is very smooth. Gas mileage is a bit disappointing for a 2.5 liter engine, but then again, its an SUV. You cant compare it to a Civic or a Sentra or a Corolla. This is our second Nissan in the family and we are very happy with our purchase. If you are in the market for a small SUV, I will definitely recommend the Rogue. At least give it a spin. I am pretty sure it will make it on your list of cars too."

"Had this small SUV as a rental for a week while my SUV got repaired after an accident. This was a major dissappointment, I was about to return it ahead of time to get a different vehicle. Even though I only drove it ~15 miles per day the experience was excruciating. The transmission is really terrible, it makes the car drive very sluggish. Handling is awful as well. The instruments are annoying with all the digital junk in the center. Very poor sight through the rear view mirror. I could go on and on. I'd stay away from this one, Toyota, Honda, Chevy, Ford all make superior vehicles in this class."

2011 Rogue

"I actually bought the 2011 version. I bought it late in the year when the 2012 had already been released, so they were trying to get rid of cars and I got a great deal. I had a 2000 Civic previously and was expecting to take a ding in fuel mileage. But the Civic was getting about 32 and the Rogue was supposed to get 28 on the highway. I've kept a log and I get almost exactly 30 MPG in the Rogue - mostly highway miles. So, even better than advertised - but less than the mpg gauge on the dash says (usually around 32, so check it). I also get comfort. The ride is nice and smooth and very quite. I plug the MP3 player into the stereo with aux jack and it's great. I have the base model. I may have liked the back-up camera, but I can live without it. Slight obstruction of view, but they put mirrors on both sides of it and I can see whatever is there. Easy access to back seats for my 2 child seats. Good storage. I was able to buy a 7 cu ft freezer and bring it home. When the rear seats are folded down there it plenty of space. I like the hidden storage beneath the floor in the back. I might like it to me a little larger, though. I really like my Rogue. I'm glad I got it."
