Quote2017 Nissan Rogue Sport takes the stage at NAIAS today – joins record-breaking Rogue lineup this spring

"Right sized" Rogue Sport slots just under popular 2017 Rogue, Nissan's #1 selling vehicle in the U.S., and further expands Nissan's extensive SUV lineup
Brings Intelligent Safety Shield technologies, fun-to-drive performance and affordability to young, urban compact sport utility vehicle buyers

DETROIT – The new 2017 Nissan Rogue Sport, which is designed to expand the audience for Nissan's top-selling Rogue crossover when it goes on sale this spring, is set to make its auto show debut this morning at the North American International Auto Show.

The redesigned Rogue broke Nissan's all-time U.S. single month sales record for an individual model in December 2016 with sales of 40,477 units. Rogue also passed Nissan's longtime sales leader, Altima, for the 2016 calendar year Nissan U.S. sales crown.

The new Rogue Sport will be joined on stage by a new Nissan sedan concept. Presenting the two new vehicles will be José Muñoz, Chief Performance Officer, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.; Chairman, Nissan North America, Inc., and Shiro Nakamura, Senior Vice President, Chief Creative Officer, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.

"The new Rogue Sport is a perfect addition to the red hot Rogue lineup, which is also adding a first-ever Rogue Hybrid model for 2017," said Michael Bunce, vice president, Product Planning, Nissan North America, Inc. "With Rogue Sport's slightly smaller dimensions and sporty maneuverability, it's ideal for singles or couples without kids – or empty nesters – who want a sportier vehicle and can live with a little less cargo capacity than the current Rogue offers."

Rogue Sport has a 2.3-inch shorter wheelbase and a 12.1-inch shorter overall length than Rogue, helping make it more maneuverable in city traffic and an ideal size for tight city parking spaces. Other helpful city adventure features range from up to 61.1 cubic feet of cargo space (2nd row seat folded) and available innovative Divide-N-Hide® Cargo System to the Around View® Monitor (AVM) with Moving Object Detection (MOD)1.

Rogue Sport offers available Nissan Intelligent Safety Shield technologies including Forward Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection2, Intelligent Cruise Control3, Rear Cross Traffic Alert4 and Forward Emergency Braking2.

Rogue Sport is offered with a standard 141-horsepower 2.0-liter DOHC 16-valve inline 4-cylinder Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG™) system engine and Xtronic transmission. It goes on sale at Nissan dealers nationwide – in a choice of S, SV and SL grade levels – beginning in spring 2017.

It's a pretty looking SUV



but I'm fucking tired of these things. The Rogue is compact. The Juke is subcompact. This is a small compact.


At least the juke is substantially faster.

How does it relate in size to the juke on the interior?

The Juke's styling is way out there, if this was created without much expense I could see it bringing in a lot more sales even with the Juke.

This is 10" longer than the Juke but height and width are near identical

I see the Buick Encore everywhere round these here parts. I would classify my area as suburban bordering on rural.

The tacky Nissan Rogue/Rogue One cross-promotion has apparently been a raging success. The Rogue is the best selling Nissan nameplate, ever.  Americans :facepalm:

Before I bought the sonic, I really thought long and hard about a manual Juke

People really seem to like cars like this.  I see a lot of cars in this size class--but then again, I do live in a city.  But I often see them on the highway (so who knows where they're coming from) and out in the suburbs as well.

It might be because I'm in the land of the pickup truuuucck as commuter ride but I rarely see things of this size out here. It's all CRV size or bigger. I think I can count the # of Q3s/HRVs etc I've seen on one hand.

You prolly aren't looking.


Also, no one buys Q3's
