YEAH! i am too, never thought about this band before, but this time maybe change, for the space designing and the price. i have no reason to refuse it.
@@sergiovalente3036 Have had heavy snow here in Canada (BC) and the Rogue has been amazing. Probably my favourite vehicle in the last few years. Have a great 2022!
Looked at Bronco Sport but the luxurious look, drive and feel of the Platinum Rogue got me! No complaints at all…buttery smooth and super quiet. Sips gas and delivers more than adequate acceleration, especially in Sport mode.
I was looking at the Ford Bronco Sport, but now I'm leaning towards the Rogue SV AWD. I owned a 2012 Juke SV AWD for five years in northeastern Ontario where the roads are brutal in the winter. I never had 'any' problems with the CVT transmission at all, so I would purchase another one in a heart beat!
Thank you so much! There was just so much info to get out with this new vehicle. The ride is very smooth and it actually handles quite well taking corners with ease. The CVT is much better although I do understand many can not wrap their head around driving a CVT. All we can say is this CVT is quite good.The seats are comfortable and there's plenty of legroom in the front and back seats.
Thank you..Thank you!!! @ 9:35. ive said that and said that. Older models not newer models have cvt issues. Ive seen so many auto reviewers say what you just said too. But you will still get Nissan cvt trash comments. Thank you for that point. Maybe people listened. Doubt it.
@@cli6389-p4k My dad also had a '95 Maxima SE with a manual; what an awesome car to drive. I had just gotten my driver's license the year prior, so it was a ton of fun when he would let me take his Maxima for a spin.
One of my dream vehicles when I thought of retirement was a Maxima. When looking at them they just looked dated and old, still do. We bought nothing but Nissans for years. Now, I just don't know with the CVT if we'll ever go back.
I have a 2012 Nissan Sentra S with over 207,000 miles on it. Never had an issue with the original CVT. I changed the fluid every 60,000 miles as required in the owner’s manual. Nissan is capable to be reliable as Toyota and Honda. You haters should learn how to read a manual and drive a car properly and you won’t have any problems long term.
When comparing to Toyota or any other, please also mention the 360 cam, heads up display and the auto pilot that only Nissan has and others probably don't or you have to pay much more for them as extra. Then it would be a more fair comparison. I absolutely love Nissan exactly because of these features.
Fantastic work Nissan with the Rogue, it’s a gem all around 🙌 loving the videos with Andrea btw, makes it much more informative and easier to watch the full videos
Fine review as always guys. Very insightful, even when you had the car for only 24 hrs. Amazing! Please don't forget to mention where is it made, because that's an important fact for us enthusiasts. Congratulations.
Haven’t given much thought to Nissan for a while but with recent models, perhaps. But I’m really curious to see how their Ariya all EV does; totally different vehicle of course but very intriguing as to Nissan’s evolution.
I bought a 2016 from dealer and began to have serious transmission issues at approximately 80k miles. Nissan just gives me the runaround. I will post same comment on all rogue videos
Thanks for the video, great real review with no "car" jargon. I am with ya on the CVT issue. I own a 2015 Rogue and have had trouble with it...it was stalling when accelerating (traffic light) ARGH!!! Eventually had to have the whole thing replaced, of course the warranty had just run out. $$$$ I am looking at getting this one in the coming months.
Great channel guys, I've watched a ton of your vidz. I've narrowed my 2021 choices to the; Rogue, Rav4, CRV, and the CX5. But now I'm stuck. - While the CX5 has the best body, the infotainment system sucks. - The CRV seems like the obvious choice, but its ugly. - The RAV4 is a top rival, but the infotainment system sucks, and its ugly. - The Rogue is what I want, but I'm concerned about spending $45K on a simple vehicle, when I could get a used Lexus for the same price. Information constipation is what I have right now, do you have any advice?
Rogue with the 4cyl instead of the i3 cuz the i4 proved itself, in sv or sv premium. Platinum isnt worth it bc the seats are still leathertte on the sv premium, but the semi aniline leather on the platinum is nicer, it isn’t worth it for 5000 more.
Cold? We woke up to the Nation’s Capital dusted over with Snow! (gone by noon). I like this crisp redesign. Simple but tasteful. My only criticism might be it’s ‘Letter badged’ rear. The word Rogue is far too short and I feel that this upscale feature should be reserved for pricier model, like the Pathfinder (not their cheaper SUVs). Thanks for another entertaining review, guys.
Great review guys! I think would be better to compare SUVs that are AWD when you discuss about fuel efficiency, since most buyers are interested in this capability when they search for this kind of vehicles.
Only 3 in Canada, no more SL. Just like how with second gen before the face lift only had 3 trim, S, SV, SL (fully loaded and didn't need a premium package unlike in the States). Only when they did the facelift in 2017 that SL became second highest trim with platinum adding some nice stuff.
Love the car but there is one issue, no one is talking about the same key fob that has been used since 2008. Not a huge thing but a car key is one of the first impressions you get of the car's overall quality. Incorporate some metal and make it a little heavy. Quality speaks wonders!
I have a 2017 Rogue SV Tech. What sold me on it over the others was the price for what you got and the trunk. Having the option to put a shelve up high and tucking a stroller underneath it was a game changer for me. Disappointed they didn't keep that feature
Yes you are right but only in the US. I noticed some of the features in the SV package in the US are different than the SV in Canada. We don't even get the SL trim in Canada.
Good job guys on the video. This new Rogue looks exceptional, even with the lighting setup. ala original smaller Cherokee, which I generally don't care for.
Seems like Nissan upped their works with this one. I will give it four years before I consider buying one. If the CVTs are still junk some of them won’t go over 3-4 years before blowing up.
had to sell my 2014 Rouge due to CVT issues for pennies on the dollar.. wouldn't trust them with my $ anymore, especially they start giving you trouble after you have run few thousand miles. hence, wait long enough to trust their new releases...
You two do a great job and both offer great insights and car details, keep up the great work. How is the visibility in the car b/c the back window looks tiny?
Good improvement over previous gen on interior but that Jatco CVT is worrisome. Headlights and tail lights also a fail. 181hp a little weak compared to RAV4 hybrid and CX5 turbo.
@@stevetavares5008 I'm glad I made you laugh. Before Scotty even mentioned Jaco, ibet 99% of people didn't even know what Jaco was. He's the biggest clown on YT. He's stuck in the 80s
hopefully the CVT lasts now...my wife's QX60 chugs at low speeds sometimes ( not terrible but noticeable). Just over 100k kms on the car. Otherwise, this might be Nissan's nicest design in years.
Hi Zack & Andrea! I was very excited about your review and was going to check out a few Rogue Platinums here in the USA. However, I just realized the 2022 Rogue has a new 1.5L 3-cylinder engine? Now, I am not so sure I even want to consider one. What are your thoughts? Thank you.
Hi there, we are just waiting for the new Rogue to arrive, until we drive it we can't really say. The new 1.5L turbocharged 3-cylinder has more power than the 2L and as soon as we get it, we'll put a review out. - Andrea
Seems like quite an improvement over the outgoing model. However, Nissan's reliability and build quality has been subpar for the last two decades. Hopefully this is better.
Idk why reviewers keep reviewing the platinum version. Most people won't get the highest trim. They should review the sl or the sv trims that the average person is most likely to get
@@Motormouth... yeah I understand that I was just saying. Wish they gave the reviewers cars that most people would actually get. Thanks for the review it was great
How does Subaru have better 4wd than Mitsubishi S-AWC? So far no issues with the 2016 model CVT. Test drove a Forester and when I asked about the head gasket issues I was told there was a scheduled head gasket replacement! At 2k plus NO THANKS.
All Nissan needs to do is listen to their customers a little more than ditch the the JATCO CVT. They nailed the design, functionality, interior and value. Any benefit CVT once had like low revs on the highway or smooth operation is now mitigated with good 6, 8, 9 and 10 speed automatic transmissions. No reason why they can't use an off the shelf Aisin 8 speed unit, that's literally all they need to do to make it a solid competitor.
My neighbor right next to me is a Dave and we do not get along at all, he's a douche. LOL Ironically he used to have a Rogue. I like the Rogue and the Altimas, get them as rentals all the time and they are some of my favorite rentals, their AC handles triple digit temperatures in AZ and Nevada when I am out there no problem.
@@andreaspencer9813 We used to get along, then he became a douche and was getting out of line and then I told him I'd put a big 10 ft hedge down the side of my property and block his view and then he stopped being a douche and now we just don't talk. LOL His son and I are friends and still talk which makes thing awkward. 🤷♂️
Thanks for the video! Did you guys notice any issues with Rogue's suspension? My new Rogue makes loud noises and jumps all around even on the smallest bumps
Andréa, you are so charming.... Well, i cerafully listen to both of you but I will be very reluctant with a CVT. I have a BMW 4 series Cabriolet 420i ( yes only, but I live in Paris) and, gosh, the 8 speed real automatic box is amazing.
I give technology and convienence a bit more importance over ride quality and engine specs. With all that in mind I am divided between Rouge Platinum and Hyundai Sanata fe Luxury hybrid. Understand its comparing apple to oranges but any thoughts please? Love the way you guys do unbiased review
This is the best compact SUV out there. Interior is above Honda or Toyota by far. CVT not a problem as shifts like a conventional transmission. Rav4 engine is weak and noisy. Honda has a CVT and still has oil dilution. This will be a winner.
Smart consumers know Nissan are still in trouble. Even if its a decent vehicle, hard to shake off the negative image Nissan has earned itself . Knowing Nissans reputation, its going to be hard to gamble your money on them when you can spend it on vehicles with much better track records for reliability.
I've owned a lot of automobiles in more than half a century. The only Nissan product I've ever owned was a much loved 240Z. So I don't have a lot of experience with the brand. I did look fairly at a previous generation Murano back in 2012. It was the first CVT I'd driven and it was AWFUL. Its egg shape looked like it was designed to transport a cargo of inflated balloons. All that combined with the fact that the Nissan dealers in my area are all of the "what-can-I-do-to-put-you-in-a-car-today?" variety that meant I got out of the dealership as fast as I could. With all that said, I have to admit the new Rogue seems to be a huge improvement over its predecessor. The boxier shape cuts almost 3" off the length while improving the overall passenger and cargo space. I'm still no fan of CVTs but there's no question that the design and engineering has improved significantly in the last decade. And the somewhat greater fuel efficiency explains why so many automakers have adopted them. From what I've seen few consumers will see a CVT as a major negative. All in all, even with a 39% drop in sales in 2020, the current generation ranks 4th in sales in the compact crossover category in the US. The new generation should significantly improve on that.
Every car brand has their pros and cons. Toyota is hard to top but Nissan is really improving. I know a few guys who never had major issues with Nissan . Give it a chance to improve.
I'm not a Nissan guy, but this is really nice!! They're gonna sell a ton of these.
YEAH! i am too, never thought about this band before, but this time maybe change, for the space designing and the price. i have no reason to refuse it.
I have had a Platinum for a couple months, and love it. Pearl with super black.
So smooth, super high quality, a step up for sure.
I would trade my Pathfinder Platinum 2017 for this. Thank you.

When I think of what Nissan was in the 80’s and early 90’s and then what they’ve become now, I get sad.

Also maybe consider a used rdx, from 2016-2018 MY bc leather and heated rear seats standard for about 28k

Nice to see Nissan is making a comeback. Good to have competition and options for the consumer.
Can't wait for the 400Z
I agree, it's worth a test drive even if you don't enjoy a CVT.
Comming out with a totally redesigned vehicle is not making a comeback. They have to sell them first.

Perfect car other than the powertrain.
I have owned 2 Muranos with CVT's. They take a little getting used to, like automatic transmissions back in the day. I won't go back.
drove a 2022 Rogue no issues with the trany

Did I miss it? How was the road and wind noise? How well does the Rogue dampen resonance and irregular road feedback?
Quite good. The cabin was actually fairly quiet. I did notice some noise when going up hills but overall, pretty good.
Try to do an oil change on this Nissan - its pretty much impossible to access and change the oil filter!
Seems like quite an improvement over the outgoing model. However, Nissan's reliability and build quality has been subpar for the last two decades. Hopefully this is better.
Nissan has definitely upped their game with this Rogue. Time will tell......
Nice review
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Idk why reviewers keep reviewing the platinum version. Most people won't get the highest trim. They should review the sl or the sv trims that the average person is most likely to get
We get the car from Nissan, they choose the trim, not us.
@@Motormouth... yeah I understand that I was just saying. Wish they gave the reviewers cars that most people would actually get. Thanks for the review it was great
Would you get a Nissan yourself with CVT if you’re the kind of person that goes on highway/high speed more often?
For sure, try it out, take it on the highway. We were impressed with the handling of this new Rogue.
GOOD REVIEW & GREAT CAR.
is it just an illusion caused by the camera or is that rear window actually that tiny? Looks like this vehicle could have some major blindspots.
No, the rear window is fine, it's just the shot.
Looks beautiful....cars alright too
Which one is better to buy for long term use? Keep in mind, I drive more than 30k km yearly.
Rogue 2021 or CX-5 2021 ?

Glad you like it!
Andréa, you are so charming.... Well, i cerafully listen to both of you but I will be very reluctant with a CVT. I have a BMW 4 series Cabriolet 420i ( yes only, but I live in Paris) and, gosh, the 8 speed real automatic box is amazing.
Love the BMW Cab 4 series, my girlfriend has one, awesome vehicle. And in Paris, sweet!
@@andreaspencer9813 Thank you "Miss"
I’m thinking about buying this for my wife. Should I buy or lease?
Take her for a test drive first.
I give technology and convienence a bit more importance over ride quality and engine specs. With all that in mind I am divided between Rouge Platinum and Hyundai Sanata fe Luxury hybrid. Understand its comparing apple to oranges but any thoughts please?
Love the way you guys do unbiased review
Go Rogue!!!You won’t go wrong!!
Awesome video..
Thank you so much, really happy you liked it. :)
This is the best compact SUV out there. Interior is above Honda or Toyota by far. CVT not a problem as shifts like a conventional transmission. Rav4 engine is weak and noisy. Honda has a CVT and still has oil dilution. This will be a winner.
Smart consumers know Nissan are still in trouble. Even if its a decent vehicle, hard to shake off the negative image Nissan has earned itself .
Knowing Nissans reputation, its going to be hard to gamble your money on them when you can spend it on vehicles with much better track records for reliability.
good point bud. Kia has fires lol. all these brands ain't perfect and have some issues.
Hey Zack, doesn't the Jeep Cherokee compete in this class as well? It has 271hp and would be more than the Mazda.
Also, Mazda CX-5 turbo goes up to 250 hp.
I've owned a lot of automobiles in more than half a century. The only Nissan product I've ever owned was a much loved 240Z. So I don't have a lot of experience with the brand. I did look fairly at a previous generation Murano back in 2012. It was the first CVT I'd driven and it was AWFUL. Its egg shape looked like it was designed to transport a cargo of inflated balloons. All that combined with the fact that the Nissan dealers in my area are all of the "what-can-I-do-to-put-you-in-a-car-today?" variety that meant I got out of the dealership as fast as I could.
With all that said, I have to admit the new Rogue seems to be a huge improvement over its predecessor. The boxier shape cuts almost 3" off the length while improving the overall passenger and cargo space. I'm still no fan of CVTs but there's no question that the design and engineering has improved significantly in the last decade. And the somewhat greater fuel efficiency explains why so many automakers have adopted them. From what I've seen few consumers will see a CVT as a major negative. All in all, even with a 39% drop in sales in 2020, the current generation ranks 4th in sales in the compact crossover category in the US. The new generation should significantly improve on that.
Today it drives really well, tomorrow not so well. 🤣
Yep, that's Nissan.
Every car brand has their pros and cons. Toyota is hard to top but Nissan is really improving. I know a few guys who never had major issues with Nissan . Give it a chance to improve.
Il est magnifique ! 👍❤
Thanks for watching :)
You said you got the car for one day so how did you went on the hills "Yesterday" 🧐🤔
Who makes their transmission?
Have you reviewed the new trailblazer yet?
