The 2017 Rogue Sport was named one of the 13 best subcompact SUVs by US News last year. We realize we must sound like a broken record, always speaking about awards and accolades, but our vehicles keep exceeding expectations around the world— and someone’s got to talk about it!
First to catch the adjudicators attention was the car’s ample room for cargo. Relative to its size the Rogue Sport’s storage area is humongous, but that’s just the tip of this cache iceberg. With a fold down rear-bench, flip up dividing panel, and ‘hide’ configurations, you can morph the 53 cubic feet of space to meet your needs. Got to move a fragile glassware set that needs to sit snug in the back? Worried about leaving your pricey electronics in the back? Don’t fret, we’ve got a place for that.
Striking a perfect balance between its space and its sportiness, the Rogue wowed judges further with its impressive handling. At 172 inches long, this car is able to navigate dense city streets as if disguised as a tiny little commuter. Together with its optional all-wheel drive, slippery slopes and restless roads alike are no match for this SUV.
