NEW 2022 Nissan Rogue Sport
Overview
The Nissan Rogue Sport, which fits into the narrow niche between the wee Kicks and the Rogue, is the latest of the Japanese automaker’s models to receive an overhaul. While this compact crossover has a more whimsical name (Qashqai) in Europe, many things about it—including its sharp styling—should carry over to our market. One thing that won’t, though, is a hybrid powertrain. We anticipate U.S. models will feature a gasoline-powered four-cylinder engine. At least Nissan will offer buyers the option of front- or all-wheel drive. And to complement its new exterior, the Rogue Sport boasts a modernized cabin with updated infotainment tech. Expect to see the revamped crossover at dealerships sometime in 2022 as a 2023 model.
What’s New for 2023?
The Rogue Sport is due for a full redesign for 2023, with sharper styling and a more modern interior.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Although other markets will receive a hybridized model, the U.S. Rogue Sport will likely continue to use a gasoline-powered four-cylinder. We anticipate Nissan will pair this engine exclusively to a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) but offer buyers the option of front- or all-wheel drive.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The Rogue Sport’s new cabin looks thoroughly updated, with a more artfully shaped dashboard, a flat-bottomed steering wheel, and a tablet-style infotainment display. Photos of the Europe-market model are likely representative of the top-spec SL trim and feature quilted leather upholstery, stitched dash and door panels, and a digital gauge display.
