  • Solid value, great handling - 2010 Nissan Rogue
    By -

    Like others have said, this AWD is a best buy in its class. I was looking for a fuel efficient AWD to handle the New England winters, although I cant vouch for how it performs in the snow yet. What impressed me most about this vehicle was the car-like feel when I first drove it (other competitors felt more like "mini-trucks") Coming off a V-6 minivan, it was important to me that the Rogue had a nice ride and it doesnt disappoint here even though the smaller engine is taking some getting used to.(acceleration is adequate however) The interior finish is nice for a car in this class (Premium Pkg., Leather, Moonroof) and so far Im averaging 21-22 mpg, mostly around town driving.

    I had to give up my faithful 2002 PT Loser as my family has gotten larger. I searched everything. Was tempted with a Suzuki SX4 crossover, Forester, Matrix, & the top sellers. The Rogue doesnt have one true strength like the others do. Instead it does a lot of things very well. Performance, radio, design inside and out, MPG, fit and finish are among the strengths.It is sporty, rugged, durable. I got used to the CVT- you will too. No car suits everyones needs so when I chose this Rogue I felt confident that this car will last long and will be reliable for me and my family.

  • Solid car but the A/C is a bit meh - 2010 Nissan Rogue
    By -

    I bought this car new and was very impressed with the handling - very car like. Fit and finish of the interior is way above the competition (RAV4, CRV etc). The engine is powerful enough and I grew to love the CVT that some people hate. The front seats are very comfy and the few times I get to sit in the back I am comfortable there too. This was the last car on my shortlist and I didnt want to like it but I really did. 12 months later and I still like the car a lot. It is what it is - its a compact SUV crossover with AWD (btw the AWD really does work well in light snow and ice). The visibility out of the back is poor (styling) and the A/C is NOT great for Texas summer. Still like the car.

  • bought a used one - 2010 Nissan Rogue
    By -

    I bought a used rogue with 30,000 miles I already own an SUV. I bought it to replace my failed ford explorer with 162,000 miles. I needed a vehicle to go back and forth to work ( I drive 60 miles a day) needless to say I wanted something with good fuel economy, and a good warranty. I had my Rogue 3 months and i love it/ its comfortable nimble in traffic. I still have 70,000 miles left on a 100,000 mile warranty.its very stylish,and it must be a great CUV because I see sooo many on the road. go into a decent sized parking lot you will see at least 2 Rogues there.

  • I have owned two 2010 Nissan Rogues! - 2010 Nissan Rogue
    By -

    Back in November Hampton Roads was hit by a nasty Noreaster, and my 08 Nissan Sentra was totaled. Myself and my 2 yr old ended up driving into a flooded street at 4 am, and had to get pulled out by the police. After this incident I decided that my next vehicle had to be some sort of SUV. First time up I purchased a 2010 SL Rogue FWD, then the following winter we received highly unusual amounts of snow, and I noticed that my car didnt handle as well as Id liked. Just yesterday, 6 mos later I took my car in for routine maintenance and left with a 2010 SL Nissan Rogue AWD. I love it! It handles superbly, as did the FWD, but now that we are expecting a little boy in June I am more confident!

  • My New Baby - 2010 Nissan Rogue

    Well, I finally broke down and purchased this sweet ride. It is an absolutely wonderful car and I cannot rave more about the CVT transmission. Just when I thought I wouldnt get any pep from a 4 cyl. engine and I would have to bite the gas mileage bullet and go with a 6, I drove this. Its fun, stylish, and sexy. The warranty leaves a bit to be desired, especially because of all the alternative out right now, but I purchased an extended in case.

  • Highly Recommended - 2010 Nissan Rogue
    By -

    I love this car, this is my first SUV ever, and I am not disappointed at all! It rides very smoothly, can barely feel the bumps on the road, comfort level is high, before this car I was driving a Cadillac CTS 2006, and I dont see any comfort reduction level. Visibility is very nice on this car, and gas millage is pretty good too. I get about 17 mpg on average which is less from what the manufacturer states, but in my area there are a lot of stop signs, and traffic, so it is reasonable. The mileage on this SUV is better than my previous car which was a Sedan. AWD responds very well, and the insurance is cheap for this car because it is safe and reliable.

  • Love our Rogue! - 2010 Nissan Rogue
    By -

    Weve had our Rogue for 2 months now and love it. The fuel economy has been great, 27-30 mpg (FWD model). The room inside is more than adequate for a compact SUV. There is plenty of storage in the huge glovebox and center console, but I wish there were bottle holders in the doors. Also, the fuel gauge is digital and hard to read. The visibility takes a little getting used to, but really isnt that bad and worth it for the great styling. Also love the 2-tone interior with the light gray leather. It handles great, but the ride suffers a bit. There is also a lot of road noise from the rear, especially on wet roads. Weve had a few rattles, but nothing major. Overall we love it!

  • It is what it is and I love it!!! - 2010 Nissan Rogue
    By -

    This is a great car - for its class. If you want bigger/more bells & whistles/luxuries, get the Murano. I love the way it looks, the way it drives and handles. I dont find this car to be noisy. The ride is smooth and effortless. Many people complain about blindspot issue - after the buy the car. All of this can be noticed during a decent test drive!

  • Update to previous review - 2010 Nissan Rogue
    By -

    I have already reviewed this vehicle but I wanted to write a follow up. Since purchasing my Rogue S w/360 pkg in April, I have put 13,000 miles on it! I have loved driving every single mile! I am in outside sales and practically live in this car, driving 3 states. It is very comfortable for long drives and I can pile 4 suitcases of samples along with various other binders and misc all in in the cargo area. This keep my backseat clear of items,etc. AWD is awesome in torrential rain! I felt very safe after a 3 hour drive in that rain! Once you set your mirrors correctly, visibility is not that big of an issue. I love the smooth ride and its get up and GO! Love love this Rogue
