TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Nissan Rogue

Nissan Rogue Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2014	Though more fuel-efficient than heavier, truck-based SUVs, crossovers have remained much less fuel-efficient than lower, lighter, more aerodynamic cars. Especially if they are equipped with all-wheel-drive (AWD), which adds weight and drivetrain friction. Still, their efficiency has been improving. With EPA ratings of 25 mpg city, 32 mpg highway, the all-wheel-drive 2014 Nissan Rogue is the most fuel efficient compact crossover. (Add one mpg for the front-wheel-drive Rogue.) The new Subaru Forester comes close, with 24/32, followed by the Mazda CX-5 (24/30) and Mitsubishi Outlander (24/29). The Ford Escape (22/30), Honda CR-V (22/30) and Toyota RAV4 (22/29) lag behind the others. In the real world, the Rogue had no trouble beating the EPA estimates. In suburban driving the trip computer typically reported averages between 27 and 31. On one 65-mph highway run downtown, the trip computer reported 40.6 on the way there, then 27.9 on the return. Wind? That, and perhaps my foot wasn't as light. Though the latter figure is much less impressive, the two-way average of 34 is quite good for an all-wheel-drive crossover, especially with the outside temperature just above freezing. I tested the Subaru Forester in colder weather with a lot of snow on the roads, so unfortunately I cannot provide comparable real-world figures for it. The averages I did observe plus the EPA estimates suggest it should be not quite as efficient, but close enough that I'm calling this one a tie. Unless you don't need all-wheel-drive. Then the Rogue has an edge. Notably, both vehicles have continuously variable transmissions (CVTs). see full Nissan Rogue review

2014	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT AWD	I drive in an area of constant small hills and was 'forced' into AWD: milage by trip computer is only 27 after 30000 miles, but this is probably pretty good for the terrain and vehicle size. see full Nissan Rogue review
2013	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT AWD	My other vehicle is a V6. Good on gas is a plus. see full Nissan Rogue review
2012	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT AWD	Good fuel economy, with an average of 24 mpg with mixed driving. see full Nissan Rogue review
2011	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT FWD	Great. I average 9 litres/100km. 31.38 MPG Canadian or 26.15 MPG US see full Nissan Rogue review

2010	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT AWD	Had the Rogue for a 6 hour test drive. Highway mileage was 8.1litres/100km on the highway at 120K and in town was 9.3. I feel this is very good for this size of a vehicle with this much room and comfort. see full Nissan Rogue review

2010	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT FWD	Disappointed! I get around 22 total if I'm lucky. Even in highway driving, I never get near the EPA upper end. I do run the A/C almost all the time, since I live in South Florida, but compared to other vehicles I have, it still is pretty bad. see full Nissan Rogue review
2009	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT AWD	Hey - an AWD SUV that gets around 24 mpg? Sweet. see full Nissan Rogue review

2006	4dr Hatch 118-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic AWD	We purchased our Matrix NEW June of 2006, we now (21 Dec 2012) have 82,000 miles and I have monitored the mileage since we purchased the car. We get 24 in city driving and the VERY best we've got on a long freeway drive was 30mpg. Overall our mileage for the 80,000 miles is 27 which isn't great but is acceptable. see full Toyota Matrix review
