how well does it handle freeway when? 1) driving into the wind? doe sit struggle to maintain the cruising speed? 2) freeway driving up hill? is it able to maintain cruising speed?
I was glad to watch your review. I just purchased this same vehicle but in all black instead of the pearl white body, and I agree with everything you said in this review. It’s got a great look and it’s so easy to drive, it feels like you have a cushion of air under the vehicle while driving it. It’s very roomy, and it has just enough throttle to be fun as well. I feel like I got a great deal of features and luxury for my money.
Thank you! That’s awesome...it certainly does feel like it has air under it, smooth driving. Glad to hear you’re enjoying your Rogue..good choice on the black too, that always looks nice. Thanks for sharing that and for watching!
I just bought a 2018 Rogue SV today! It's not a midnight package, but it's black with the black rims. It's got the panoramic sunroof, premium audio all loaded. The only disappointing thing I saw about it, was the black rims. They're actually rim covers, and not the whole rim. So if I took off the covers, it's just a standard alloy or aluminum rim behind it. But they still look sharp! Was great to find a 2018 1 owner with only 16k miles on it!
wanted to add that i’m literally 4”10 and i LOVE how much my seat moves AND how comfy it is!! i have it all the way up and it’s actually perfect!! just got my car and i loved this review!! as someone who doesn’t know much about cars, this review was very helpful!!
I've always like the re-design of this vehicle, I was even a Nissan loyalist for quite a while, owning two in both the basic & top rims. However, Toyota ultimately won me over with the amount of features and amenities for the price, and while I am typically not a fan of ctvs, I do feel that if I were to own a vehicle with a cvt trans, it would be a Nissan equipped one, as I do feel they make one of the cvt trans in the business.
I like them too! Curious what they will come out with next for the redesign. Can’t blame you on Toyota, you really can’t go wrong with them. Thanks for the input and for watching! 👍
Good review. I have a 19 Outback that has more headaches than it's worth - amazing for a subie but I want something else. The dealership is offering me a great deal. It's been 3 years since you recorded this, would you still recommend it?
7 months on my 2018 rogue loving it I got the sv sun sound touring + premium I think the only thing it's missing to be a sl premium is home link led front light leather seats and pilot assist lol
Is Nissan still using the very unreliable JATCO CVT? I had a choice between this and the 2018 Honda CR-V EX-L. I went with the CR-V. Matter of fact can you tell us which one you prefer and why?
Yes they are, as far as I’m aware. I would pick the CR-V snd that transmission is a big reason I’d avoid the rogue. Both are spacious, comfortable, and drive similarly but I feel like the CR-V is the better option. I remember hearing about the oil dilution in the CR-V 1.5...but I’m not sure what the latest status is in it and it seemed to only be a problem in cold weather states. Have you noticed or heard anything about that?
@@PrimeAutotainment I got my 2018 CR-V EX this past March. I haven't had a issue with oil dilution. I'll rather deal with that than an unreliable JATCO CVT. At this point you'll have to think Nissan is intentionally building these CVTs bad.
I test drove a 2017 and thinking about the 2018 SV package in black for purchase I’m on the fence about because of complaints of folks on a fb post about the CVT on Nissans. Can anyone tell me their thoughts on the CVT of this vehicle? Currently there is a lawsuit involving CVT on Nissans. Thanks. Excellent video Nolan. I’m thinking of buying.
I’ve heard various things too, from trouble free to nightmares across different vehicles. I don’t have any personal experience with them so I’d love to hear others input as well
I am on my third Nissan and second Rogue with a CVT. I have not heard of the lawsuit, but my experience has been very positive. I did notice some transmission drone in my Altima. When I got my first Rogue the transmission was considerably more quiet. 3 years later I'm on my second Rogue and I honestly don't understand what the big deal is at all about the CVT, lawsuit aside. I find it smooth and responsive (but certainly no Speed Demon), the car is more quiet than the last edition with more standard equipment. To me the transmission does not make itself known unless you floor it. But then every transmission is noisy at that point. In addition, I have not had one issue with a Nissan in the six plus years I have been leasing them. So far I am very pleased. As a way of comparison, my previous car was a newish BMW that I had nothing but issues with.
Diana Prince if you plan on keeping your car for as long as possible, I’d recommend the Rav4 with the traditional 6 speed automatic and 2.5 engine. It will last you 20 years if you want. The Nissan’s are ok for the first couple of years. But they definitely cost more to maintain after the warranty period compared to the Toyota. But, if your just going to keep it for a few years, you should be fine. Most issues don’t arise till the vehicle is older. Best of luck.
I'm lookin for an suv to buy . at the moment I own a hundai santa fe 2011. im not sure what to get yet.a Toyota chr 2018 or a Nissan rogue sport or a chevy trax.your video help but im still betwwen those cars.ooh boy
I’m glad it could help. I guess the biggest thing would be to test drive and see who gives you a good deal 🙂. I’ll be testing a CHR next week but haven’t been in the Trax before. Good luck with your decision! All of those will be quite a bit smaller than the Santa Fe so keep that in mind. If you wanted another Santa Fe..they redesigned it for 2019 model year meaning you could get the 2018s on a discount most likely.
Good job Nolan. Another great review. Just wondering, do you think its worth a look, especially on a healthcare workers salary? I was thinking to check out the Rogue, what say you? Thanks.
Thank you!! I definitely do...it’s got quite a few features on each trim for the price. Personally I would probably compare Rav4/CRV as well...each has pros and cons. For buying one...depending on cash, finance, lease...it should be doable. They have these on a discount too but that depends on each dealer/time of year. Could get a lightly used one like this too for cheaper. Lot of factors to consider
Can't wait for you to review the new redesigned Toyota Rav4, 2019. I have that on my list too. Thanks Nolan, you're the best reviewer. Down to earth, and always keeping it real.
It’s quite a bit different than the Tahoe. Lot smaller overall, lot less power, different driving dynamics. It’s still a good SUV for the price, but not in the same class at all
I’ve heard people with mixed experiences. I don’t own a CVT so I can’t speak on it but some have said they’ve had no problems whatsoever and others with transmission failures early on.
Typical crap for americans. I drove this car for 6000 miles and my verdict is - this is crap. Prymitive seats, "media system" looks like chinese toy, sound is horrible, noisy, ugly interior. Heavy and no power (typical american "car"). My Audi is like rocket technology comparing to this "car". This is chinese junk.
Afterwatching your in-depth review we purchased a new rogue. We purchased the SV AWD. And we couldn't be more happier. Thank you for the honest review of This SUV.

Hope your loving it. I pick up mine next week! Sounds like we got the same package, mine only has 18k miles. I hope it lives up to the review.

This is going to be my first car for my 16th birthday next week! Thanks dad!!

No kidding. They are disappearing!

I couldn't decide between the rogue and ford escape. I ended up getting the escape titanium. Love it. Turbo all wheel drive. Very fast!
Nice choice! It definitely is a quick one, hope you continue to enjoy it! 👍
I love the Midnight Edition package and am bummed the discontinued it on the 2018 Nissan Rogue.
Oh, it's discontinued?
It is more than wonderful car and Nissan cars need no introduction
i have one of those, i made a chicago to cali, round trip, so comfortable, and fuel efficient, 🤙
Good review. I have a 19 Outback that has more headaches than it's worth - amazing for a subie but I want something else. The dealership is offering me a great deal. It's been 3 years since you recorded this, would you still recommend it?
I will purchase this next yr look awesome
Very nice!
I Have the exact same model and I cant find apple CarPlay on mine for some reason, even though it is written on the MSRP.
Great review just picked this up tnght the ride home was smooth look forward to playing around with it tom
reinaldo romero that’s awesome! Thanks for sharing and hope you continue to enjoy it!

Best top 5 SUV’s since I have my rogue I start working at the dealer Naples Nissan... pls come to see me if you want to have your Nissan Rogue.
Midnight package but they couldn't blackout the Nissan emblen and door handles?
I said the SAME thing! I think there should be no chrome, all black!
I'm going to black out the chrome on my caspian blue 17 rogue. I can't stand the chrome.
very good detailed review. thanks
Thank you!
Today I got one in black. Also in the DFW area. Got it at autoNation of Lewisville.
That’s awesome, happy to hear it. I hope you enjoy it! 👍

Did Nissan fix the CVT or will the 2018+ fail after 60-100k as well?

I can’t wait either! I’m gonna be bugging Toyota to death once it’s available lol. I truly appreciate that, take care!
Thanks Nolan, as usual, you always give sound advice.
Might consider it
Is this like a cheaper thaoe?
It’s quite a bit different than the Tahoe. Lot smaller overall, lot less power, different driving dynamics. It’s still a good SUV for the price, but not in the same class at all
Is there any problems of CVT transmission?
I’ve heard people with mixed experiences. I don’t own a CVT so I can’t speak on it but some have said they’ve had no problems whatsoever and others with transmission failures early on.
I have a 17 rogue with 50k mi. and have had 0 issues with it thus far.
Any navigation on this?
Only apple car play but in my opinion is good enough
Nolan you're so handsome 😍
Haha thanks Sarah! 😊
hate head led lights
Fuck i got the standard edition. I dont think they had the sv or one told me anything about a premium package. Guess its too late.
Dang, how long ago did you get it?
Hate this vehicle. Has been way too many issues from the beginning, and now a recall on it. Waste of money. Lost 60% of its value already too.
X-trail basically
Yep They’re relatives ☺️
I'm five foot six and I hit my head every time I get on the driver's side. This is a small SUV for a small driver.
is it with renault engine?
I know it’s on the Renault-Nissan modular platform but don’t know specifics of the engine, sorry!
The us model uses the qr25de
No led tuen wack asf

Lol of course Audi is way ahead of this. It should be. The truth is that his Rogue sells really well anyways
Lol you comparing a luxury car to a standard
Afterwatching your in-depth review we purchased a new rogue. We purchased the SV AWD. And we couldn't be more happier. Thank you for the honest review of This SUV.
Awesome! Glad it was helpful, enjoy your new Rogue!
Podunk Man you’ve just shown your vehicle knowledge by using the ‘chinese junk’ statement!
