Latest Nissan News For Seattle, Tacoma, And Bellevue Washington
As you drive by one gas station after the next, you groan at the cost of fuel. Prices seem to rise right before your eyes! With upcoming vacations and road trips, you don’t know how you will afford each fill up. Perhaps it might be time to cut back on your summer plans?
 
Not so fast! Nissan has a way to help you get better fuel economy by ensuring proper tire inflation with their Easy-Fill Tire Alert.

Now available on 12 nameplates, including the 2018 Nissan Rogue, this enhanced tire pressure monitoring system helps consumers quickly and conveniently fill their tires to the correct psi without relying on a handheld pressure device. A simple honk takes the guesswork out of inflating tires to the correct pressure, thus ensuring that you are always riding on the right amount of air for the most fuel-efficient driving.
 
Here’s how it works:
 
 
Neat, right?
 
Easy-Fill Tire Alert is one of many technologies that are part of the Nissan Intelligent Mobility vision – the company's approach to changing how cars are powered, driven and integrated with society. To learn more or to try the technology for yourself, contact our team at Kirkland Nissan in Seattle, Washington, for your test drive in a 2018 Rogue.
Precision now defines every mile - with Nissan fusing its 2018 Rogue SL with a suite of intuitive technologies. These programs are intended to simplify the driver experience, delivering impeccable control and undeniable support. 


As Nissan explains, the 2018 Rogue SL has been painstakingly crafted - with every line devoted to driver assistance. To ensure a seamless ride (no matter what the terrain), this crossover delivers three class-exclusive technologies:

Intelligent Trace Control: drive with confidence. This function maps lane trajectories around corners, noting both the position of the lines and the vehicle’s current traction ratios. If either of these elements is deemed unsafe by the advanced radar system, the brakes will automatically engage to slow the Rogue and increase stability.

Intelligent Engine Braking: fickle roadways can wreak havoc on each driver’s abilities, with twists and turns forcing them to veer between acceleration and deceleration. The Rogue helps to streamline this process, with its I-EB system modulating speed. It tweaks traction as needed, monitoring CVT gear ratios to determine the appropriate responses. This reduces the need to constantly press the pedal.

Intelligent Ride Control: pot-holes and cracked pavement ensure unpleasant experiences. This system helps to counter them both, smoothly adjusting the fore-aft pitch of the Rogue whenever external obstacles are sensed. It subtly decreases torque to lessen overall vibrations and improve stability.

These features allow the 2018 Rogue SL to enhance every mile - making it a perfect choice for adventurers, families, and commuters alike. To learn more contact us today!
February proved to be the month of the crossover - with Nissan’s venerable Rogue delivering record-breaking results in Seattle. This platform (anchored by the S, SV, and SL trims) dominated the charts and helped to spur the brand past its competitors. The new year has begun with a sales bang.


According to Nissan, the 2018 Rogue experienced exceptional year-to-year growth - earning 38,119 total units for February.

Utilize both Siri Eyes Free voice-commands and a capacitive touchscreen to access hundreds of custom programs - including:

Music: stream songs from iHeartRadio; access Spotify accounts; and sync your iTunes playlists. Apple CarPlay delivers hands-free control of every tune.

Entertainment: stay enthralled on the road with help from Audible and Downcast. The system will automatically stream all content through the four-speaker BOSE stereo.

It’s the clumsiest of rhythms. Along the highway you stall and stutter - your car’s engine refusing to deliver steady power, leaving you instead rocking with every mile. A quick glance to the mirror reveals that you’ve turned an alarming shade of white, and you feel your stomach roll in protest. This simply will not do.

Nissan agrees - which is why its 2018 Rogue delivers a seamless crossover experience. No longer shudder down the road. Instead indulge in smooth performance, settling both your nerves and your patience.



According to WYFI, the 2018 Rogue proves a deft option for the Seattle streets. Beneath its hood is a 2.5L four-cylinder engine, which yields an efficient 175 HP and 170 lb.-ft of torque (the platform purrs, rather than roars). The continuously variable transmission reduces gear strain, crisply shifting from one ratio to the next; while the four-wheel independent suspension adapts to changing terrains with ease, utilizing dual stabilizer bars to counter roll-overs. Speed-sensitive electric power steering further improves the ride, allowing drivers to maintain optimum control in all traffic conditions.

These technologies promise a fluid experience in Seattle - with the new Rogue weaving through all conditions. For those craving more than smooth power, however, this platform also boasts zero-gravity seating: which delivers optimal reclining angles and supple materials to cradle every passenger. Comfort is guaranteed with each mile.
