Test drive the preowned crossover that U.S. News & World Report gave a solid 7.8-out-of-10 overall score. The 2017 Nissan Rogue SV is a smart choice for Seattle urban dwellers in search of a compact platform delivering a relaxed ride and a generous interior.
Â
From nose to tail, the 2017 Rogue Sport is slightly shorter (about a foot) than its bigger sis, the Rogue, but much of that length comes off at the rear end, keeping the space where it matters – legroom. Up front, you and your passenger will enjoy 42.8 inches of stretch out room, while the second row dishes up 33.4 inches. But, fear not – even with its compact footprint, you won’t miss out on cargo capacity since the Rogue Sport provides a total of 53.3 cubic feet of volume when the split-folding rear seatbacks are collapsed.
Â
Under the hood, the Rogue Sport’s powertrain is equally as impressive with its 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 141 horsepower and 147 lb-ft of torque. It comes mated to a continuously variable automatic transmission that sends power to the front wheels. Fuel economy will wow you too with a rating of 25 mpg city and 32 mpg highway. On the road, this machine drives with confidence and supreme agility. Its small size makes it easy to maneuver through tight spaces and it has a balanced ride quality that's ideal for daily commuting.
