2020 Nissan Rogue Sport review

1. Available all-wheel drive 

For assured agility in challenging conditions, why not choose a 2020 Rogue Sport optioned with available all-wheel drive? With power delivery reaching every wheel, your Rogue Sport gains improved traction and stability, allowing you to confidently navigate coastal or mountain roads on vacation, as well as rainy or snow-laden commutes on your familiar daily routes. For the occasional grass or gravel trail, perhaps to reach your lakeside weekend retreat, this AWD agility and the Rogue Sport's standard 7.4 inches of ground clearance will get you there in comfort. 

2. Thrifty powertrain 

The 2020 Rogue Sport certainly feels useful, offering pleasing fuel economy for daily commutes and longer journeys out of town. Each 2020 model has a 141-hp, 2.0L four-cylinder engine, and a continuously variable automatic transmission. When you want to make the most of your time behind the wheel, the standard FWD configuration offers an EPA-estimated 28 mpg combined, making those extra errands a breeze to complete. 

3. Passenger-pleasing tech and comfort 

Keeping your crew happy is always a shopping list priority, so the 2020 Rogue Sport has a worthy list of standard and available passenger-friendly features. The base S trim includes a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay^® and Android Auto^™ smartphone integration. The SV trim adds dual-zone automatic climate control, and with the available All-Weather package, heated seats too. The range-topping SL trim includes luxurious leather upholstery and system navigation. 

4. Practical dimensions  

Size isn't everything, but the 2020 Rogue Sport SUV proves that even with a compact footprint, the interior can still be spacious. Front-row passengers can stretch out on long trips with 42.8 inches of legroom, while those in the back enjoy 33.4 inches and two full sets of LATCH fixtures for infant and child seats. Traveling with luggage or sports equipment? Pick the 2020 Rogue Sport S for 22.9 cu-ft of cargo space, or the SV and SL trims for up to 20.0 cu-ft, all behind the second row. 

5. Plenty of driver aids 

Every 2020 Rogue Sport has a fine roster of driver assistance features that support your awareness on the road. All models offer ease on the highway with cruise control functionality and blind spot warning for confident lane changes. The 2020 Rogue Sport’s rear cross-traffic alert and rearview monitor are useful in parking lots and mall garages, while the automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection feature is great for busy mixed-use traffic zones.
