Overview & Reviews

The 2008 Nissan Rogue is an all-new compact crossover SUV.

• Very carlike driving experience, supple ride, well-crafted interior, comfy front seats, excellent brakes, sweet-sounding optional Bose stereo.

• Less cargo capacity and versatility than some other compact crossovers, standard CVT is a poor match for the engine, impaired outward visibility.

  Happy in blue - 2008 Nissan Rogue
  By happy in blue - August 9 - 2:33 am

  I love my Rogue. I traded in my jeep with poor gas mileage. Im very happy I get an estimated city of 19 to 20 miles and highway I got 29 mile to the gallon. It feels great not to have to fill my tank every other day, I get by with at least 10 days. Wouldnt trade it for the world.

  Havent used the shift paddles yet. Blind spots. road noise, wind whistling re cross wind. 32 mpg hwy with a/c heater off. Same brakes at 89,000 km but lot of hwy driving but reconditioned for $400.. Low tire indicator on and off. Love the bluetooth, miss a GPS, Rear door plastic hand grab keeps falling out. On the small size though.

  My best car - 2008 Nissan Rogue
  By unclewimp - July 8 - 7:30 am

  This is the best car I have ever owned. Forget any negative reports about this car. These people probably did not heed to the owner instructions. I am a mechanic who works for a Toyota dealership. I bought this vehicle because of the technical achievements. It is fun, it is good on gas, it is a pleasure to drive. As for the CVT, have no fear, it is great! The CVT has been used in off road and heavy duty equipment for years. The limitations of this car are negligible and in some cases non-existent. There is some room for improvement, but it is insignificant compared to the overall splendor of this exceptional vehicle.

  Bad Experience - 2008 Nissan Rogue
  By BAD Experience - June 21 - 8:50 pm

  I am sorry to say, Our family looked for a crossover vehicle for a while then we found the Rogue the gas mileage was the selling point along with the looks and supposedly the reliability(Not So!) We owned the vehile less than a year traded the vehicle at 16,000 at this time we had already had two transmissions and was in need of the third NO one could explain if there would ever be a fix. I was concerned for the safety of my family so I tried working with the dealer and with Nissan all you get is political answers no one wanted to take the blame for selling a vehicle that did not perform to the standards that the dealer sold it at or would Nissan communicate there concern of there customer

  Gotta Have One! - 2008 Nissan Rogue
  By Jessica - May 23 - 2:13 pm

  I loved my new Rogue the second I sat in it at the dealer. I was originally looking to buy a Murano and on the way out of the show room I walked by the brand new just released two weeks ago, Rogue. Blew my socks off. The gas mileage is unbelievable. I get 25.6 mpg in the city. I get well over 30 mpg on the highway. The paddle shifters on the steering wheel are very different and fun. The pep this car has for a 4 cylinder is just incredible. The CVT offers such a smooth ride that I forget how fast I am going sometimes because I am so used to a car shifting. I highly recommend at least test driving one for yourself.

  A great ride - 2008 Nissan Rogue
  By adventure girl - May 4 - 3:06 pm

  This car has been pure pleasure. I was disappointed with the pricey option packages, but the car has been a treat. Ive carried 5 people on 2-3 hour long drives in comfort. The cargo room is a little tight, but Ive never been lacking. The car is fun to drive and responsive, the design is sleek and the interior is very comfortable. Its perfect to load on my kayak, bikes or snow shoes. The Rogue has been my adventure companion!

  Better than Expected! - 2008 Nissan Rogue
  By TALL IN THE SADDLE - April 7 - 9:46 pm

  I got this Rogue on Dec 1st, as a company vehicle. I drive on many rural roads as a sales rep, so needed good clearance & the AWD is great. I was used to V6 engines, so it took a bit to get used to the 4 cylinder. I think the CVT is great. I average about 25-26 MPG, when driving normally. If I really drive it hard (80 MPH) on the interstate, mileage drops to 22-23. I like everything about it except the visibility out the rear window. I guess thats why they put mirrors on vehicles. The wheel design on the SL model seems to hold snow & mud that freezes in the winter causing vibrations like the wheels are out of balance as well. Not a problem now that summer is here.

  Very Happy - 2008 Nissan Rogue
  By SimLex - April 5 - 6:26 pm

  Ive only had my Rogue for a week now, but am very happy. I traded an 04 Jeep Liberty. Great, smooth ride, although the CVT is taking some getting used to. Lots of bells and whistles that are nice. Interior is nice and roomy enough. Drivers seat is very comfortable with many options for adjusting the seat position, lumbar, etc. Gas mileage on my first tank was almost 25 mpg. Was hoping for more, but maybe that will improve once its broken in. It handles very, very well. Its very stylish and I feel like Im driving a super expensive car!

  Love It! - 2008 Nissan Rogue
  By Pam - April 5 - 12:33 pm

  I hadnt had a new car in 8 years and was replacing a 2000 Impala. The alloy orange color won me over and I wasnt happy until I had one. Im not thrilled with the black interior as it seems to always look dirty. Medium colors hide the dirt better. I was hearing a gurgle sound and stopped in to have it checked out at the dealership. I was more than surprised to find out that the CVT has to be replaced as it is slipping. Not something you want to hear with only 4000 miles on the vehicle. I took the car on a 700 miles trip (one way) last weekend and was thrilled with the long term comfort of the vehicle. I do wish it had automatic lights. Overall a great car

  Love this car - 2008 Nissan Rogue
  By Mike - March 31 - 6:40 pm

  Love driving this car. Dollar for dollar a much better buy than the CRV or the Rav-4. Handles better, and offers features normally reserved for a higher priced car (XM, Bluetooth). Have a small rattle I cant find but everything else is perfect. Getting about 24-25 mpg.
