To get the most performance from the engine, you have choices of ECO and Sport settings. Once at the desired speed, it cruised and kept up with traffic easily. The CVT and the 2.5L four-cylinder combination ran smoothly, but under extremely hard or labored (as in uphill, pedal-to-the-metal) acceleration, there was an engine/transmission noise-more like a drone-that was noticeable in the cockpit. Transmission with no shift-points (because there are no gears to shift) and helps deliver increased fuel economy through a reduction in friction and changes to pulleys and other internal CVT workings. Nissan’s continued development of CVT technology has resulted in a Ready to hit the road The CVT-equipped Rogue was, as I have found with other cars using CVT transmissions, an overall good driving experience. The handling and ride elements include 225/65R17 all-season run-flat tires (these are an option and part of the SV Family Package) on 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, Active Ride Control, front independent struts, coil springs and stabilizer bar and a rear independent multi-link set-up with twin-tube shocks and a stabilizer bar. The electric power-assisted and speed-sensitive steering gave a good road feel and handling was confident, with little body roll through all speeds and situations. The five-door (four passenger doors plus a power liftgate) Rogue, weighing in at 3,422 lbs., has a 58/42 front-to-rear weight distribution, making it easy to maneuver. In 300 miles of 70-percent highway/ 30-percent city driving, we averaged 28.5 mpg. Running on unleaded regular, it puts-out 170 hp and 175 lb-ft of torque through Nissan’s Xtronic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), and is rated at 25 mpg city/ 33 highway/ 28 combined for the FWD, and 25/32/28 for the AWD. The 2016 Nissan Rogue SV comes in either FWD or AWD, with both versions using the same 2.5-liter, 16-valve, inline four-cylinder engine with sequential multiport electronic fuel injection.
As Nissan’s second best-selling vehicle, the 2016 Nissan Rogue adds new technology features to make it even more appealing. When Clean Fleet Report reviewed the 2015 Nissan Rogue we gave it high marks as one of the best compact SUVs on the market.
