2015 Nissan Rogue vs. Its Competition

2015 Nissan Rogue
Martin Padgett Martin Padgett Editorial Director

The Nissan Rogue doesn't sell in quite the same volume that you'll find with its competitors, but Nissan aims to fix that.

The Hyundai Sant Fe Sport offers equally good looks and better performance from its turbocharged model.

The Mazda CX-5 offers excellent driving dynamics, but isn't much of a performer–much like the Honda CR-V.

The Toyota RAV4 only offers a four-cylinder engine now, but is more attractive than ever before.

The Ford Escape may present the highest mountain to climb here, with good driving dynamics, extra power, and more technology than anything else in the segment.
