2017 Nissan Rogue Sport review

1. Available driver aids 

To support you on long drives, the 2017 Nissan Rogue Sport offers plenty of driver assistance options. All 2017 models have a rearview camera for convenient parking and backing up, or pick the SL trim to elevate that functionality to an Around View^® monitor with moving object detection. Models equipped with the available Premium package get blind spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert, while the SL trim-exclusive Platinum package adds intelligent cruise control, lane departure warning, and forward emergency braking with pedestrian detection. 

2. Spacious cargo dimensions 

Practicality is a priority for the 2017 Rogue Sport, so you can expect plenty of cargo space for groceries and mall shopping trips, plus the versatility to move bigger items. With all seats in place, the 2017 Rogue Sport cargo area offers up to 22.9 cu-ft of space for daily errands or park visits with your crated four-legged friend. Ready for adventure? Fold down the 60/40-split rear row for up to 61.1 cu-ft of space on S trim models, offering you the freedom to load up with sports and camping equipment. 

3. Tech-savvy interior 

This compact crossover has a generous list of infotainment technology enhancing ride enjoyment and convenience from the base trim upwards. The 2017 Rogue Sport S trim has Bluetooth^® connectivity for hands-free calling and audio streaming, a USB port, four-speaker audio, and a five-inch infotainment display screen. For bigger sound capability, pick the SV trim to get six-speaker audio, while the SL trim adds practicalities like system navigation and voice command recognition. 

4. Passenger comforts 

While the 2017 Rogue Sport is classed as a compact crossover, it has a comfortable and spacious interior for your friends and family to enjoy. The standard cloth or available leather-upholstered seats are well-cushioned, with each row benefiting from easy-to-reach cupholders and door cubbies for your travel essentials. Up front, you'll get 42.8 inches of legroom, while the second row has 33.4 inches of legroom, and two complete sets of LATCH fixtures for traveling with young children. 

5. Engaging exterior style 

If you’re shopping for a compact SUV with style and personality, the 2017 Rogue Sport could be the head-turner you’re looking for. With a lower ride profile than its larger Rogue counterpart, this athletic stance is complemented by accent body lines and available alloy wheels. Ten exterior paint options offer you the chance to ride anonymously with a monochrome shade or stand out by choosing a model in one of its vivid shades, Nitro Lime, Caspian Blue, Palatial Ruby, or Monarch Orange. Available features to look out for as you shop the 2017 Rogue Sport include a power-sliding moonroof, roof rails, and illuminated kick plates.
