Gear up for adventure! Rocky roads and difficult passes are no match for the 2017 Nissan Rogue SL. This is an automobile that you can trust to serve you as well off the asphalt as it does on the highways and byways of Seattle, Renton, and Bellevue.
One standout reason for the 2017 Rogue SL’s nimbleness across any terrain is the inclusion of all-wheel drive. It’s responsive and sports integrated traction control for enhanced stability and agility as you move across inclines and declines. Electric-assisted steering further ups the ante and keeps the SUV immensely responsive, while the 2.5L four-cylinder is incredible peppy. It delivers 170 horses and 175-lb.-ft of torque.
We also want to take a moment to highlight another performance-related aspect of the Rogue: its CVT design. This stands for “continuously variable transmission.†It differs from a traditional automatic in that there are no set, rigid gears. Instead, there are an effectively unlimited amount of ratios to work with, meaning it offers a ridiculously smooth driving experience. However, user operation is just as simple as you’re used to.
