TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Nissan Rogue

2013 Nissan Rogue Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2014 Both the Rogue and the Forester have roomy rear seats mounted higher off the floor than most, and thus better suited for adult comfort and non-adult outward visibility. But only the Nissan has air vents back there. The Rogue is also one of the only members of the segment to offer a third-row seat, the others being the Mitsubishi Outlander and the Kia Sorento (which in width and price actually falls between compact and midsize). Unlike in the others, though, you cannot get a third-row seat with the Rogue's top trim level. So you must choose between the third-row seat on the one hand and the SL's additional features (heated leather seats, Bose audio system, forward collision alert, LED headlights) on the other. You also cannot get the third-row seat with the panoramic sunroof. The tested vehicle was the SL, so no third-row seat. Judging from the specs, it should be roomier than that in the Outlander, and about a match for that in the Sorento. Adults might fit in a pinch, but it's probably best to think of the seat as kids-only. Combine this third-row seat availability with the Rogue's EPA ratings, and you have the most fuel-efficient vehicle that can seat seven (but not on leather). see full Nissan Rogue review
2013 Nissan Rogue Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
The Rogue SL's leather-trimmed seats appear luxurious, but like those in some other recent Nissans (with the notable exception of the Altima) feel flat and overly firm. The power seat adjustments include height, but not tilt. Mazda has also started deleting the driver seat tilt adjustment, and both automakers deserve to be taken to task for this. Those with upright builds (including me) will find that the Rogue's front seat headrests jut too far forward. The Forester's front seats are more comfortable. see full Nissan Rogue review

In previous car, I had problems with leg pain after 2.5 hours. No such problem after multi-hour drives now. Still need an insert for back support. see full Nissan Rogue review

I'm over 6' tall with long legs, and I have plenty of room. I can sit in the rear seat after I set the driver's seat at a comfortable position, as well. I wish the lower cushion height/angle could be adjusted, but still very comfortable. see full Nissan Rogue review

TrueDelta Reviews the Powertrain of the 2013 Nissan Rogue

2013 Nissan Rogue Powertrain: Cons
YearComment
Thanks to the ability of the CVT to rev the engine to the optimal rpm for any given situation, then hold it there, the Nissan Rogue's 170-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder motivates the crossover's 3,500 pounds well enough in typical driving. When driven for maximum fuel economy, the engine pulls smoothly (if not strongly) at a steady 1,500 rpm. Request extra scoot, and the powertrain steps up, but enraged leaf blower soundtrack doesn't encourage this. This powertrain is best suited to casual, efficiency-oriented driving. No other engine is offered. Though virtually identical in size and power rating, and also paired with a CVT, the Subaru Forester's flat four-cylinder engine sounds better when revved. And, if you want strong acceleration, Subaru offers a 250-horsepower turbocharged engine (separately reviewed here). see full Nissan Rogue review

2.5 at 170 HP and CVT is really quite strong even for a beast this size. It is usually reviewed as being under-powered, but I disagree strongly. If this is inadequate for you, you must really like to buy gasoline for monster engines. see full Nissan Rogue review

I love the CVT - very smooth, good power, and great fuel economy. Power feels a bit soft at low speeds, but the engine is willing to rev for passing. No problems passing on interstates - even up mountains with 4 people on board. The engine can get a bit loud, but it's fairly quick for a crossover. see full Nissan Rogue review

Some people won't like the CVT transmission, but this car does drive smooth and has enough power to get out of its own way. It won't win a race, but will keep you up with traffic. see full Nissan Rogue review
