"Bought Nissan Rogue 2012 Special Edition AWD after selling my 2006 Corolla S. Requirement - Looking for a crossover which could address the city-highway driving requirements for small family (couple and an infant) with decent looks, good MPG and good value. And it fit the bill perfectly. - AWD - We get lot of snow here in Phily and AWD became a necessity. Pros - Special Edition provided very good value esp with the reverse parking monitor, decent audio system and fog lamps; a must for this SUV which huge D Pillars which limits visibility. - Great styling and performance are top notch with ever reliable Nissan quality. Its a looker !! - iPod/iPhone Integration is good. Ability to stream audio from Radio Apps is good. - Good MPG. I have been getting 21.0 MPG in summer with A/C in typical city driving conditions which is pretty? good although Corolla numbers are history. Cons - Lacks auto-headlights in base S trim. At times you may not realize that headlights are not turned on esp night time. - Limited cargo space although it fits the bill for all usual travel requirements. - Slightly underpowered for quick passing at highways. For expereinced drivers it should not be an issue after initial acclimitization. - Rear bench seats. Suggestions - Parking monitor is a must have with huge D Pillors. - Bumper protector is a must have to avoid damage because of the distinctive styling. - Take test drive on a highway to get used to feel of CVT with high acceleration. - Like other compact crossovers its offroad capabilities are strictly pavement only."

"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."

"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."
