• If you want something with the best tech, then you can look for a model that comes after 2024. This is because it comes with a larger touchscreen, depending on trim.
• The new engine that comes on the most recent generations is slightly worse than the second-generation engine, but it is still better than the competition.
• We recommend the Platinum as it comes with a heads-up display, as well as in-dash navigation.

With this one being the most recent generation to hit the market, it will come with some of the best options available. Before we get into the features, we'll touch on the build. While being built on a new platform, as well as sharing the same dimensions from the generation before, the look of the vehicle is all new. Nissan has given it a more distinctive exterior design, punctuated by a boxier, more squared-off front end and recognizable LED lighting signatures along with two-tone exterior color combinations.

This generation brought a new engine to the lineup, with this being the 1.5L I3. This makes 181 horsepower and is paired with a CVT. Thanks to this, it comes with an EPA-rated 33 MPG combined.

While the S, SV, and SL are still offered, the Platinum is the newest addition to the family. This features a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, quilted semi-aniline leather upholstery, heated rear seats, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Some of the features that you can find on these models are both 8- and 9-inch touchscreens, depending on trim level. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are both standard, and high-end features, such as in-dash navigation or a Bose stereo system, are optional. The Platinum also comes with a large 10.8-inch head-up display and a wireless smartphone charging pad.

Starting in 2024, the model had undergone some changes, with the biggest one being the new 12.3-inch touchscreen. This replaced the 9-inch touchscreen for the SL and the Platinum trims. This also brought the Google-based infotainment system and associated apps.

This generation came in hot. Offering optional third row seating, allowing up to 7 passengers in total. Also coming with standard four-wheel suspension and electric power-assisted steering. In 2018, the third row option would end up being dropped.

In 2016, this was Nissan's top-selling model, representing 15% of the brand's sales. This year also brought some modern creature comforts. These were NissanConnect with Navigation and Siri Eyes Free.

In 2017, the model saw a facelift. This came with new head and taillights, as well as LED daytime running lights on all trim levels. 2018 saw some standard safety features added, these being the automatic emergency braking and blind spot warning.

2017 also saw the Rogue Hybrid. Coming with regenerative braking, which is paired to a 2.0L I4 gas engine with a CVT, and an electric motor with a lithium-ion battery. All of these work in tandem to get you an EPA-rated 34 MPG combined.

2017 was a special year for the Rogue because Nissan traveled to a galaxy far, far away and brought back some new tech. This was the Nissan Rogue: Rogue One Star Wars Limited edition. Coming with two color options, one being glacier white and the other being magnetic black. This came loaded with features, ranging from Bose audio systems to a panoramic moonroof. With only 5,400 units made, if you find one, you'll be part of the rare few.

Most of this generation hold the Top Safety Pick by the IIHS, with the 2017 model having the Top Safety Pick + rating from the IIHS.
