Nissan teased the 2014 Rogue today with an image of the redesigned SUV’s headlight. The photo, which suggests the lights have LED brackets and sit adjacent to a partitioned grille, could signal a departure from the current Rogue’s rounded features.
The Rogue arrived in September 2007, and despite its age, sales are up 13% through July. In fact, the Rogue is Nissan’s No. 2 seller behind only the Altima. It handily outsells newer rivals like the Subraru Foester and Mazda CX-5; sales are more than double the Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportagecombined. But incentives were at least partially responsible for the popularity. This past spring, you could get a 2013 Rogue for as much as $2,500 off.
No doubt the redesigned Rogue will need fewer deals to move off dealer lots. Stay tuned for more. Nissan will unveil the SUV on Sept. 10.
