Add $745 for the fetching two-tone orange and black paint job, plus $400 for the head-up display and the Rogue tops out at $40,870. All-wheel drive is a $1,500 upcharge on all trim levels, and a top-of-the-line Platinum AWD like the one pictured here starts at $39,725. Steven Ewing/CNETĪll 2022 Rogue models are slightly more expensive than before, with a base model coming in at $28,445 (including $1,295 for destination). The interior is nicely appointed and quite spacious. All Rogues except the base S come with Nissan's excellent ProPilot Assist, which combines adaptive cruise control with active lane-keeping tech. Instead, these customers will appreciate the Rogue's long list of standard driver-assistance tech, including forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert and more. The suspension strikes a nice balance of city comfort without freeway floatiness, and the steering is appropriately tuned - nicely weighted but lacking feedback, not that 99.9% of Rogue buyers will actually care. Plus, unlike other small-displacement I3s, the Rogue's engine isn't prone to harsh noises or unwanted vibrations, both at speed and while idling.Īround town, the Rogue is pleasant to drive. But the best thing about the 1.5T is that it doesn't have the 2.0-liter VC-Turbo's weird power peaks and valleys the torque delivery is nice and linear aside from that initial jump. Midrange thrust is acceptable - certainly better than the old 2.5-liter engine, at any rate.

In fact, the throttle might be a little too sensitive, delivering a quick jolt of power while pulling away from stops before mellowing out.

The 2022 Rogue isn't what I'd call quick, but it certainly accelerates with more authority than the 2021 model.
