Overview of the 2021 Nissan Rogue Sport

Although it’s a relatively new model, the Rogue Sport has become one of the most sought-after Nissan SUVs. It shares many similarities with the hugely popular Nissan Rogue, but it has its own personality and appeal.

Exterior

The 2021 Nissan Rogue Sport looks somewhat similar to the Rogue. It’s a handsome crossover that features a bold, cohesive styling and a well-balanced stance. From the front, it appears sleek and aggressive with its slanted headlights, prominent V-motion grille, and a plunging, sculpted hood. A creased shoulder line, fender flares, and roof rails give it a somewhat rugged side profile, while a steeply raked rear window and wrap-around taillights further accentuate its sporty appeal. The Rogue Sport rides on 17-inch alloy wheels.

Performance

Every Nissan Rogue Sport is fitted with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 141 horsepower and 147 pound-feet of torque. This engine is powerful enough to meet most of your driving needs, from commuting to and from work to cruising on the highway. It works with a continuously variable transmission to power the front wheels. All-wheel drive is available as an option.

One of the main highlights of the Rogue Sport is its car-like drivability. Due to its small size and light steering, this SUV is easy to maneuver in tight situations such as congested traffic, narrow streets, and confined parking spaces. This makes it an excellent vehicle for urban driving. Additionally, the Rogue Sport has agile handling and strong brakes, which enable it to stay composed when negotiating sharp corners and twisty roads. Overall, it strikes a good balance between comfort and agility.

Fuel Economy

The 2021 Nissan Rogue Sport is one of the more fuel-efficient compact SUVs on the market. It delivers a fuel-economy rating of 25/32 mpg (city/highway) with front-wheel drive or 24/30 mpg with all-wheel drive.

Interior

The Nissan Rogue Sport can accommodate up to five people in two rows of seats. This SUV has supportive seats to keep its occupants comfortable even on long journeys and offers more legroom and headroom than many of its competitors. Also, its cabin is well-designed and fitted with quality materials and provides great outward visibility in every direction.

Cargo Space

Few compact SUVs can match the Nissan Rogue Sport in terms of cargo-carrying capability. This crossover gives you up to 61 cubic feet of storage space behind the front seats and 23 cubic feet behind the rear seats.

Safety

The 2021 Nissan Rogue Sport earned the highest possible rating of “good” from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Additionally, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gave the SUV four out of five stars in a rollover safety test. Besides basic safety features such as air bags and anti-lock brakes, the Rogue Sport also offers many standard driver-assistance technologies to help you stay safe on the road.
