NASHVILLE, Tenn. – For the third consecutive year, the Nissan Rogue has emerged victorious in the Cars.com Compact SUV Challenge, underscoring the Rogue's consistent excellence and its appeal to families seeking an affordable, safe and reliable vehicle.
In an evaluation of seven popular compact SUVs, Cars.com editors assessed key criteria such as seating comfort, interior quality, ride-and-handling, safety and driver-assistance features, and cargo space. The Nissan Rogue stood out in multiple categories, impressing the judges with its well-rounded capabilities.
“For the third time in a row, a Nissan Rogue trim has won Cars.com’s Compact SUV Challenge,” said Cars.com senior road test editor Mike Hanley. “The Rogue Platinum is comfortable, finely finished and well equipped — overall, it's a well-rounded compact SUV that delivers a premium experience for consumers.”
"For three years running, Rogue has come out on top by doing the things that matter most to drivers—comfort, safety and thoughtful features that make everyday driving easier,” said Judy Wheeler, divisional vice president, Nissan Sales & Regional Operations, Nissan U.S. “Customers recognize the value in a vehicle that’s well-built, easy to live with and delivers a premium experience without the premium price.”
Nissan recently further enhanced the value of the 2025 Rogue by reducing the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP)1 across all grades, with a new starting price of $28,590. This pricing adjustment makes the Rogue even more accessible to customers navigating a challenging car-buying landscape.
The 2025 Nissan Rogue combines flexible storage space, family-friendly convenience features, intuitive technology, and an efficient turbocharged powertrain. It has the reassurance of standard Nissan Safety Shield® 3602 on all grades. To simplify road trips, Rogue offers ProPILOT Assist 2.13 (available on SL and Platinum grades), allowing hands-off single-lane freeway driving for attentive drivers.
Rogue’s class-exclusive VC-Turbo engine delivers impressive EPA fuel economy ratings of up to 30 mpg city and 37 mpg highway (Rogue S and SV FWD)4. Rogue helps families stay connected and entertained with standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, and available Google built-in (SL, Platinum) with Google Maps for more seamless connectivity. New for the 2025 model year, a Rock Creek grade elevates Rogue’s adventure credentials with all-terrain tires, Hill Descent Control, and more rugged design cues.
