The 2018 Nissan Rogue & Rogue Sport are two of the premier Nissan crossover vehicles. Although they share a lot of similarities, they have some distinct differences.
The Rogue is the larger of the two; it seats five people and has a 70 cubic feet of cargo space. And, with its 170-horsepower engine, it has enough power for highway driving. The Rogue Sport on the other hand, has a 141 horsepower engine and only holds 61 cubic feet of cargo. It can only seat five passengers total as well.
In terms of aesthetics, the Rogue has a sportier-looking exterior design as compared to the Rogue Sport. Both have an interior upgradeable to leather, but the Rogue offers a panoramic sunroof as an optional feature. Both vehicles come with satellite radio, and a rearview camera, as well as Nissan’s advanced safety system. The differences lie in the amount of technology offered-the Rogue offers adaptive cruise control, blind spot signs and lane departure warnings.
When it comes to fuel economy, the Rogue Sport has the advantage here; it can get an impressive 25 mpg in the city, while the Rogue is only rated at 23 mpg. However, the Rogue has a larger engine; this means that it can accelerate faster and reach higher speeds than the Rogue Sport.
In the end, both of the 2018 Nissan Rogue & Rogue Sport are great vehicles that provide a unique and stylish look. Whether you are looking for something that will seat more people and offer greater cargo space, or something that is more fuel efficient with fewer features, you can’t go wrong with these two vehicles.
