The suspension strikes a nice balance of city comfort without freeway floatiness, and the steering is appropriately tuned - nicely weighted but lacking feedback, not that 99.9% of Rogue buyers will actually care. Plus, unlike other small-displacement I3s, the Rogue's engine isn't prone to harsh noises or unwanted vibrations, both at speed and while idling.Īround town, the Rogue is pleasant to drive. But the best thing about the 1.5T is that it doesn't have the 2.0-liter VC-Turbo's weird power peaks and valleys the torque delivery is nice and linear aside from that initial jump. Midrange thrust is acceptable - certainly better than the old 2.5-liter engine, at any rate. In fact, the throttle might be a little too sensitive, delivering a quick jolt of power while pulling away from stops before mellowing out.

The 2022 Rogue isn't what I'd call quick, but it certainly accelerates with more authority than the 2021 model.
