2008 Nissan Rogue Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT AWD	Great for long trips and heated seats see full Nissan Rogue review
2008	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT AWD	With leather, power seats allows for height adjustment to LOWER the seat. The non-power seats in the S (not SL) have no height adjustment and are far too high for an average male driver. Wide enough to fit an average 6 ft male. see full Nissan Rogue review
