This is not a luxury SUV, nor a race car. So don’t expect to compare it to those things. What this is, is a fully capable small SUV that does most everything right, with semi luxurious appointments, very comfortable seats and a roomy interior. The Rogue sport handles and brakes very well, has good road stability and decent ground clearance. The only negative is the CVT transmission. It’s better than most CVT’s but still zaps some fun out of a pretty decent powertrain. The ride and noise are slightly better than average for the class, the gas mileage is decent, we average 29 combined driving, 33 on long highway trips. I find the looks more appealing than the standard Rogue, people often compliment and say it looks a nicer and sportier than the regular Rogue. Overall we are satisfied with the Rogue Sport!

This Rogue Sport is all I ever wanted in my SUV. The power is adiquate, but the interior road noise is very low at highway speeds. The gas milage is acceptable, but the technology is really ahead of the CR-V, and the Nissan wins again in the "looks" department over Honda. You won't be sorry if you buy this vehicle.

The Rogue Sport is the only vehicle in the segment that I know of that offers emergency forward braking, adaptive cruise control, and lane keep assist. There is more value in the SL trim level as well when compared to the highest EX-L trim level on the Honda HR-V. For the roughly the same price you get all the features of the Honda plus: 19 in alloy wheels, 360 degree camera with moving object detection, dual climate control, and a heated steering wheel. From a more subjective standpoint I think the Rogue Sport looks better cosmetically inside and out.

Purchased a year-end 2017 Rogue Sport last month. I was looking for something with a bit more room and a bit more comfort than my previous car (an Elantra GT hatchback). I was tired of driving a manual transmission car in the city (my dog was *really* tired of it). It's only been 500 miles, but I really think I've made a good choice. The interior is much better than I'd expect from a sub-$20k vehicle. The fuel economy is quite good. The handling . . . well, it's not sporty, but it's nowhere near as dreary as I was afraid it might be. You can also change the level of power steering assist, if you prefer a heavier feel. The one downside, and it is a CLEAR downside, is the engine. There's putting it nicely -- the Rogue Sport is seriously underpowered. I don't write that because I think every vehicle on the road needs to be a twin-turbo, twin-exhaust racer. The Rogue Sport doesn't need a 240hp turbo. But it needs more than than a 140hp 2.0 liter. My unsolicited advice would be to use a 1.6 or 1.8l turbo in the base model(s), for a bit more torque, and use either a 2.0l turbo or the 2.4l engine from the regular Rogue in the higher trim levels. Then we might be in 5-star territory. As it is, the Rogue Sport is very good . . . *if* you can deal with the engine. 4 stars.

I actually considered the Honda HR-V considering that I have bought hondas in my past. when you compare the Rogue sport to the HR-V the only thing that the HR-V is better than the Rogue Sport is that it has better fuel economy. The above review is foolish. Nissan is a very reliable brand. My family all drive Nissans and have had good experiences with them all. I bought this because it has better technology, more comftorable, more saftey features and a lot more room. NIssan is the better choice.

it steers in parking lots and tight spaces better than most. Some reviews say its underpowerd , I find that to be very untrue, it has all the power I need. Its a good vehicle that looks classy, but its not one of those statement cars like look at me, its just a good car and a decent value compared to what else this price range offers

I had less than 3000 miles when the engine lights flashed and starting became an issue. I took in and they said they reset the computer. Two weeks later, same problems, (dash lights going on and off, poor power and sensor issues) they take my Rouge sport back in and they say it's the battery. replaced that and now with less than 6000 miles, same freaking problems! It is ridiculous. Lesson learned, do not buy a new model in the first year.

New to Nissan brand. Was skeptical due to the horrible characteristics of the Previous continuously variable transmission I experienced in an Audi and a Honda. I was talked into trying out a loaded Rogue Sort AWD, I loved the looks and much to my surprise the driving characteristics of this type transmission were much better than the Audi or Honda I tested. The seats are probably best in the class for comfort (at least for me) and I was surprised at how much room was inside the Sport, back seat holds 3 adults pretty well. Overall the inside seems really wide compared to the HR-V and the Audi q3. The “luxury “ appointments are also quite nice, so far the fit, finish and quality seem good. Love the panoramic roof and piano black trim. The sound system and fuel mileage seem average. The Sport is not “sporty” but I do think it is sport(ier) than the regular Rogue, which I also tested. Overall we are enjoying this vehicle.

I bought the 17 Rogue sport sl awd with the cold weather package. The engine is a little underpowered but Nissan got everything else right. It's the perfect size for NYC, as I do have to parallel park a lot. The 360 and backup cams are great and I use my heated wheel and remote start all the time.

Recently purchased the Rogue Sport SL FWD for daily commuting and secondary family taxi. Very pleased so far. Interior and exterior styling appeal to my taste while also being well designed for versatile function. Some touches and refinements add to the vehicle's appeal such as leather surfaces, quite ride, intuitive infotainment and Bluetooth controls, and clever exterior camera system. Interior comfort and quite ride (especially at highway speeds) far exceed my modest expectations for a compact. Power is adequate, handling is pleasant, CVT is smooth, ride is firmish, and gas mileage is good. Perhaps the negative comments on performance in some reviews pertain to the more common AWD versions here in the Northeast. Nissan should improve the support of the cloth seats in S/SV models.
Love my Rogue Sport!

**** Update: I've had my Rogue Sport for 3 years now and I still feel the same way about it. I haven't had any issues with it. If I were to improve anything, it would be the wind noise on the highway but it's not bad when listening to music. *** I purchased my 2017 Rogue Sport SL AWD with Platinum Package used and so far it’s been great. It has all of the “luxury” and safety features I was looking for in an attractive little package. Parking is a breeze thanks to its smaller exterior size and 360 camera. The interior is surprisingly spacious and quite comfortable for adults in the back seats. Though the engine seems underpowered on paper, I have no issues with acceleration or passing. The engine responds nicely. I find the ride to be comfortable with the 19in rims and the cabin noise is minimal. Overall, it’s a great “little” suv.

Will Never Buy Nissan Again

Where to start. First I will say it does get great gas mileage and is excellent in the snow but that is all the good I can say. I bought my Rouge Sport in October of 2017 and since the beginning it has been a problem. I start my car on cold days and about 10 minutes later get in and it's a cold as when I started it. It takes a couple of miles of driving before it starts to warm up. The heat starts to get warm, but not warm like it should and the needle will start to move to warm then a few miles down the road the heat starts to blow cool again and the needle has gone from warm back down to cold. I have had this car in a million times, have pictures of each stage w/o the the mileage and time in the picture and they swear it is normal. I have gone to Nissan cooperate since the dealership just does not get it and gives me a hard time. They had me go to another dealer and a Nissan tech came and of course it is normal. I do not think it is normal for your car to go from warm to cold again. I have also had a horrible clunk under the car when I go from the break to the gas again (someone heard it when I was stopped by them then took my foot off the break and went to the gas again and said something is loose under your car) but according to them it is normal and they even tried to tell me the clunk is in the engine. Now onto the jerking/pulsating the car does when I am driving at 50 or higher and especially going up the hills/mountains it does it really bad. Again nothing. There problem is if they can not duplicate the problem or it does not show on the computer they are to lazy to look into it further. Well needles to say I have filed against Nissan with the lemon law and we go to court in November. And I will say save your time calling cooperate cause they do not care and will not help. I had to be a pain in the butt to get help. This process has been going on since the beginning of December ( mind you I got the car in October) and I still have a long way to go. It can take almost a year to resolve. I will never buy a Nissan again!

We bought our Sport in Feb 2018. Immediately noticed a problem with "long cranking" meaning when we try to start the car it turns over for a minute before starting, sometimes having to stop and try again before getting it to start. Took it in and they said they think they fixed it, they didn't, it doesn't do it every time and we can't just leave our car there and wait. It's been 6 months and we are noticing that the cvt transmission is already having issues. When accelerating I can press the pedal to the floor and it will crawl for a few seconds before kicking in, this is extremely dangerous. I haven't had a chance to take it in to have it looked at but will as soon as I can. Update: February 2019: We've had the car a year now. Still has the long cranking issue, I gave up on getting it fixed after about the fourth time taking it in. Never had time to get the transmission looked at just adapted to it. Moved two thousand miles and drove the car. No issues until we had to drive on a slightly flooded road. Something got wet and the ac/heater stopped blowing air. We could hear it kick on but no air was coming out. That seemed to fix itself before I could get it into a shop. It wasn't the most comfortable drive but could have been worse. The resale value has dropped considerably. Update: February 2020: Two years in. Long cranking issue is still there, dealerships can't figure it out. It has developed a new issue, when backing out of a parking space and shifting into drive, it loses power, sometimes to the point that it dies completely and I have to put it in park to restart it. Just as with the long cranking issue it doesn't do it all the time so the dealership mechanics can't figure it out to fix it. The value is now dropping by about 2k a month.

We purchased a new 2017 Rogue sport for our 16 year old daughter. It has been a nightmare!! 2000 miles the dash display panel went haywire. mpg stopped working, gas hand wouldn't move. Nissan fixed it. The BIGGEST problem has been the surgiung/slipping when you reach around 50 mph. You feel a constant rocking motion in the car around town. If you have a heavy foot you won't feel it as bad but if you drive around town, or without flooring the gas pedal it is a TERRIBLE ride!! Nissan updated the motor & transmission but states "it's a normal feature of the car" No one in our family can ride in this car without getting car sick do to the constant rocking on and off accelerating feeling. Nissan said contact consumer affairs there's nothing more we can do. The technicians agree the can feel it but since there is no known repair we are stuck. We have started the lemon law process but I would advise anyone looking into this vehicle to look for something else! It's been Awful

Avoid this car. I owned this car for 9 month, purchased new. Lot of problems... Engine or/and transmission problem - when cold (cold..overnight stay in California!) engine idle is unstable number of times engine stop after transmission shifted to D or R. Technology package is terrible - connection to BT phone takes ~5-10 minutes after you turn car on - you neither can voice dial nor play Pandora music nor use Google services at that time. Pandora and Google application at this car start ~50% of time - otherwise you get error messages... Lot of bugs in infotiment software... Assembly quality is terrible - trim around rear door windows loose and shakes. Rear gate Handle is loose... Nissan service is useless - they couldn't find the reason why engine stops on idle, mentioned that trim the same bad on other Nissan cars they checked on the dealership lot. And of course, no Software problem found and fixed. Terrible car, worst I owned so far...

I purchased my Nissan Rogue Sport June 2017. I WOULD NEVER BUY ANOTHER ROGUE!!! The first week, closed at night. Parked it for three days. Drove it the fourth day and saw colorful compound on the back rear passage door splatter to the front driver door, along with scratches. Purchased the car off the show room floor with only 47 miles. Barely have driven the car. Got in it and it wouldn't start. Tried everything!!! My husband goggled what it could be and it told him how to start it. Immediately, called the dealership and was told to bring it in. Took it in, hooked it up and immediately, it read transmission. Kept my car for 5 days. The radio is a joke. It has so much static. I was told its the area of my commute "WHAT THE?!!!! I even called cooperate, took my information. Heather, never returned my calls after she told me there was nothing that could be done. I explained to someone else at cooperated how many issues I've had with my Rogue. There are so many more issues I can't even start. Two service people at Courteous Nissan will not even deal with my car. They ignore me like I'm a plague. I'm so tempted to trade in my car, but it would be my issue because I would be the one upside down on payment. I have more miles on my Rogue driving it back and fourth to the dealership. The foreman had my car for a whole week nothing was done. He drove it to his home 2 days to Forney. The tint on my car started to bubble. They fixed it but now it leaks. The doors were so noise they supposedly fixed them. It sound worse like my windows are cracked. My door even rattles. One point my car was pulling, I was told it's called surging. I'm sick of my car. No support from the dealership.

Leased this Rogue Sport from Commonwealth Motors in Lawrence, MA and had a GREAT experience. My salesman Matt S. was just great, very helpful, knew details of the car, made me feel comfortable and willing to help me out! This is my first SUV and just love it, so comfortable, great features and handles great on the road. Highly recommend the Nissan Rouge Sport and Commonwealth Motors!

Problems began when I was hit so slightly by someone on the passenger side that set the entire car off balance. Px door bent in... Hate to think had there been speed or impact involved... Has taken 4 months so far to replace a windshield from a tree branch falling on it from a storm in Florida (how often do those happen?)... vendor says they still can't get the part from Nissan. I am still going back & forth between dealer (who says they are NOT responsible for parts -- which is why someone should know this at POINT OF SALE) and Nissan. I reiterate it's not a Bentley... it's a Rogue you shouldn't buy. NO Customer service skills at all in "service" areas. Acceleration is slow when entering a highway at speed. Defogger takes a long time to work. For the year of the model, one shouldn't need to manually operate as much as one does, but I wouldn't rate it as low for those things; however, safety, is without compromise.

Had a Juke Nismo RS prior to this, but was time for something new. It was a 2017 Leftover and Love the Monarch Orange Color. My wife has a 2105 Rogue and really like that, but wanted something a little smaller. Had it a month and very impressed with the handling and how quiet it is. While the Motor isn't the Nismo's, it still has good pickup and very smooth shifting. Ride is similar to the Rogue, and 100% better than the Juke, and we both have commented about how well it rides whether Highway or City! It's an SL and only lacks the Platinum Package, which for me would have only wanted the Sunroof, as all the Lane/Driver assist features weren't anything I really cared for. So far so good and would definitely recommend.

Great little SUV with a slightly underpowered engine. Looks, fit and finish are impressive and well above some of the competition. The 360 degree monitor is a phenomenal feature and it makes parking in tight spaces a breeze. Mine is the SV trim with the all weather and technology package. The heated steering wheel is an awesome feature. Seats are supportive without being overly firm and the cabin is extremely quiet for a vehicle in the class. Will definitely be financing ot once my lease is over. This one is a keeper.

We purchased our 2017 Rogue Sport SL new. Been a great car so far. Everything seems to work great. It now has 15,000 miles. I looked at all of the issues that people listed here. We do not have any of those issues! Our dealer has changed hands, and now they are very bad. Do not recommend South Houston Nissan. It was MUCH better when it was McDavid Nissan. We do have an issue with the Delayed Power System, which causes the radio to be turned on after you have stopped the car, opened the door. You can turn the radio back on. Dealer has not be able to find it yet, but, I am sure they will eventually. Oh, some people complained about the forward Collision Avoidance system. There is a technical service paper on this one, and they did do that on ours. Overall, we are happy with this car. We previously had a 2008 Rogue SL AWD. It was a very good car too. We picked up the 2017 because the 2008 had 110,000 miles on it, and we are retired, so wanted a newer car for traveling. But, there were no known issues with the 2008 either. We still will always buy Nissan! I also have a 2017 Titan that is great!

This car is close but misses on some major points. Nissan should include some features in the mid range SV line like the Honda does in their HR-V. To get heated seat one has to pony up near a grand with the cold weather package. Apple Car Play and a 7 inch screen are missing. Honda adds in some safety feature Nissan omits, such as a blind spot camera when you flip the trun signal for right hand lane change. Under heavier acceleration the the under powered 4 cyc really starts to show. Road noise is excessive at higher speeds on the interstate. Add in the fact that Nissan makes you buy your mats on a 25 K car seems like they are chiseling you for every buck. Nissan !...drop the Juke 4cyc. Turbo on this car and it would improve its performance ( Bigly )..LOL !

Overall, we do like the car, its fun, drives great, feels good on the road and we got the exterior color we wanted. The things we really weren't happy about? No navigation system, everything setup for a damn Iphone and I HATE HATE HATE did I say HATE? Apple products, If you have an android and want it to integrate with your car? DO NOT buy a Rogue, or a Nissan, they seem obsessed with IPHONE compatibility, our Androids could barely get the car to play music or even feed navigation through the speakers of the car and forget a display, there isn't any, maybe you get that with an Apple but not with an android. The other big issue? Black interior. I despise black interiors, I'm from Arizona, black interiors mean heat, way too much of it and they show every speck of dust that comes into the car but when we bought our Rogue? the only interior color the dealership had, with nearly 70 to choose from in a hot climate where most people dislike black interiors, was black. No tan, no gray...just black. We were NOT happy about that. So those things, along with terrible side visibility, as in HUGE blindspots that semi trucks can hide in and I am not kidding about that, and the apple thing and while we love the mechanics of the car in general, we do regret the purchase. Update: We got rid of it. Hated the Iphone thing a lot. had too many issues with blind spots and little things just going wrong. I now drive a 2011 Ford Escape Limited and I just...adore it. Better gas mileage, the features work with our phones, it drives and rides like an actual truck not a car and it is stable and solid on the road, even has heated seats which is a feature I wasn't expecting to love...but love. I love the sunroof too. Won't ever own another Nissan product after the misery we've had with their vehicles, first a Versa...then the Rogue.

I bought my Rogue Sport at the end of August and by the end of October is started having problems with the Forward Emergency Braking. While driving on multiple occasions, the car would apply the brakes for no reason and without a car anywhere around me. I took my car into service dept. at Downtown Nissan in Nashville where they could not find a problem. I started a case with Nissan USA and they did testing and sent out an inspector and still found nothing. I took the car back home after them having it 58 days because Nissan USA could not find the problem. Beware, Nissan does not care about their customers!! If they did, they would not of put me back on the road in my UNSAFE CAR. Now, I have a crashing of 2 cars symbol flashing on my dash at intermittent time but again Nissan can not find anything wrong with it. Once again, they can not duplicate the problem so as far as they are concerned there is no problem. Guess what? I have multiple videos of this happening while driving but that is not good enough for them. It is not my problem that they can't find the problem. By the way, I am aware of someone else in Alabama with the exact same problem. Please do yourself a favor and purchase other than the Rogue Sport or you might just have the same problem. Remember, if you do purchase and have problems, chances are Nissan USA will not help you either.

I own the Rogue and was hoping the Sport would be an option for my son. So the Sport is smaller, lighter and has a smaller engine with less horsepower and then it gets lower fuel economy than the Rogue? Why did Nissan elect to put a lower efficiency engine in the Sport? Sounds like they are behind. In addition, the Sport is priced more than the more efficient Honda HR-V.

Purchased in Feb 2018. My review shows that Nissan USA and the local dealership failed to respond to my complaints about this car. The only good thing about it is the LED headlights are super. From there it only goes downhill. There is excessive road noise, so much so that with the radio on you can't hear the warning beeps for the blind spot or lane departure. The Intelligent Lane Intervention, an oxymoron, is a joke and functions so poorly that it is actually unsafe. It misses the lane departure without a warning on occasion and wanders so far over the lane as to be unsafe, before it reacts. Nissan USA and Local dealership were notified of this defect in writing and never got a response from either. So much for Customer Support! The Econ button is located below the dash and has to be activated every time when starting the car. Doesn't stay on. The "premium" radio is terrible. Very poor muddy sound. The ride is very rough and stiff and is noisy regardless of road condition. This is the top of the line for this model and it misses the mark badly, though it does have a nice sporty look that is very deceiving! My advice is look elsewhere for a small SUV and stay away from Nissan. Too many good cars by Honda and Toyota that put this car to shame.

I hate pushbutton start

I hate pushbutton start . I’ve owned this car approximately one year less than 7500 miles on it and I’ve had five batteries put in to my remote. Tomorrow is going back to the dealer for the second time because the car will not recognize my key signal it is the most frustrating aggravating Unsafe car I’ve ever owned.I’m afraid to take it on a trip also if I have to make an emergency exit from somewhere or rush someone to the hospital God for bid if you’re sitting in a brand new car press the button with your foot on the break and not a goddamn thing happens it’s hard To believe I actually have to pay monthly for this car So glad I leased it I would not recommend this vehicle to anyone it’s under powered Terrible Exceller ration and the CVT transmission is not comfortable to drive that’s it Today they put two batteries in my remotes If the immediate future this beautiful ass starting issues I will bring it back and they will diagnose it. The fact that it had no warning code on my dashboard prohibited them today from diagnosing it further however if this happens again I will definitely leave it there and let them check it out

Nice looking ride, well equipped and smooth handling. Bluetooth a little glitchy, otherwise controls are pretty intuitive. Comfortable, well-designed interior. Love that moon roof! Criticisms of the CVT are accurate, lacks the oomph to get up to speed, especially on the highway, and she’s noisy. Sport mode helps but doesn’t completely eliminate the issue. After 10+ years driving V6 and V8, I appreciate the good gas mileage but miss the power and height.

My Rogue sport is a year old with 10,000 miles and it keeps stalling once I turn it on... it starts then turns off when put into drive or reverse. Dealership can’t find anything wrong with it. DO NOT BUY THIS CAR!

Purchases this car to eventually be handed down to my 17 year old son. I'm actually enjoying driving it. Traded in a mini van so I feel super sporty and it's fun to drive. Good gas mileage and handles well. Impressed with its performance as a 4 cylinder, has decent pick up.
RADIATOR FAN GOES OUT

Be careful it has been know to have transmission problems and my radiator fan has went out. It had problems in the warranty time but of course it wasn't out completely yet so they wouldn't fix it!

Was NOT impressed

We bought our 17 Rogue Sport SL AWD in April of 2018 as a leftover. It was a very good looking car and my wife fell in love with it immediately. So we signed on the dotted line and took it home. It took me about 2 months to become vocal about some of the things I didn't like about the Sport and as time went by I grew to despise that car. There were several issues that appeared that were just simply unacceptable. First, the engine would surge constantly on the highway, to the point that my wife accused me of doing it on purpose. So I set the cruise and took my foot off the accelerator and showed her that it was not me. This surging was relentless. It almost drove me crazy and Nissan wouldn't do anything about it. They just said it was "normal". The CVT in these vehicles are pure garbage. I'm 53 years old and have owned over 50 cars in my lifetime and have never driven a worse transmission. Slipping, whining, and engine roaring till it engages properly and constantly hunting and pecking for the correct simulated gear it wanted to be in. At least once a week it would stall backing out of my climate controlled garage for no apparent reason. Then the RPM's would surge till it settled itself back down. The final straw for me was while on a road trip, the a/c stopped working on a 95 degree day. That was it. I vowed to dump that car within a month and that's exactly what I did. I was forced to trade in a 3 year old car with only 33k miles on the odometer because I hated it that much. Such a shame too because it really was a beautiful car. I just couldn't deal with it any longer. We bought a new 2021 Mazda CX-30 Premium to take it's place and couldn't be happier with it. It's everything that poor disgraced Nissan could only hope to be. It was my first Nissan and will absolutely be my last. Nissan was terrible to work with from a customer service standpoint. Had they put half the effort into rectifying our issues that they did sweeping them under the carpet, we might still be Nissan customers. And I'm not talking on the dealer level. I'm talking about Nissan Corporate. They absolutely DO NOT care about their customer base. I'd have given the car one star, but like I said.....it was very pretty to look at.
