Better late than never, as they say. The 2022 Nissan Rogue sees an all-new engine introduced, only one year after everything else about Nissan’s compact SUV was totally redesigned. That’ll be disappointing news to everyone who got a Rogue last year, but terrific news for those considering this 2022. And you absolutely should consider the 2022. It’s far better to drive than its rather dreary predecessor, and the new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder makes it even better. Yes, three cylinders. Don’t worry, it’s hardly the only such engine out there, and the odd number (literally and figuratively) actually gives it a charming little character.
The rest of the Rogue stands out with its compelling design inside and outside. The interior in particular is one of the segment’s finest efforts, especially (and perhaps obviously) in upper trim levels, where padded and stitched simulated leather covers the dash, doors and center console. You also get well-executed if unremarkable infotainment tech, decent storage, and interior space that falls just a little short of the class big boys (Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage, Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V). In most respects, we think the Rogue is overshadowed by those (largely because it does not offer a hybrid powertrain), but it’s fully competitive and worth a look.
