According to Torque News, Millennials now make up the fastest-growing segment among vehicle buyers with an anticipated 40 percent stake in the U.S. new vehicle market come 2020. This generation of shoppers are tech-savvy and open-minded, willing to try new experiences and think differently about the future.Â

Nissan has figured out how to tap into this effervescent generation by engineering a compact SUV designed with the needs of Millennials in mind. The 2018 Rogue Sport is not only techno-rich, but it boasts a slightly smaller body and sportier dynamics that appeal to younger, urban drivers.

The Rogue Sport gets its fun-to-drive performance credentials from the 141-horsepower 2.0-liter DOHC 16-valve inline four-cylinder engine under the hood. It comes mated to an Xtronic transmission with eco mode and a four-wheel independent suspension. Fuel economy rings in at 28 mpg combined, when equipped with front-wheel drive.

Standard across all trim levels is Auto Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Warning and Rear Cross Traffic Alert, which were recently added to all 2018.5 models. With this trifecta of high-tech safety features designed to reduce traffic fatalities, drivers are better equipped to handle all types of traffic conditions, whether tackling stop-and-go congestion or tight city parking garages.Â

The 2018 Nissan Rogue Sport is currently available for test drives at our dealership in Seattle, Washington. To see if this small SUV is well-suited for you, contact Kirkland Nissan to schedule your appointment today.Â

According to a recent press release, Nissan is planning to expand its innovative ProPILOT Assist semi-autonomous driving system to additional models. The first U.S. Nissan to have the equipment added is the Rogue Sport, beginning in late 2018.

To date, ProPILOT Assist is offered on more than 120,000 vehicles sold around the world with customers taking a fast liking to the technology. Expanding the semi-autonomous driving system to other Nissan models, like the Rogue Sport, is only going to continue to grow. Additional vehicles will adopt the technology, expanding to 20 models and 20 markets within the next four years. This is all part of the automaker's midterm plan, dubbed Nissan M.O.V.E. to 2022.

"ProPILOT Assist is an iconic technology for Nissan Intelligent Mobility, [our] vision of how vehicles are powered, driven and integrated into society," said Philippe Klein, Nissan's Chief Planning Officer. "Its acceptance by consumers has been beyond expectations, and we're pleased to expand its availability to more popular models, such as Altima, X-Trail and Rogue Sport."

This video explains more about how the system works:

ProPILOT Assist is currently offered on the 2018 Leaf and Rogue, which are both available for test driving at Kirkland Nissan in Seattle, Washington. To experience the technology for yourself, visit our dealership today.
