2009 Nissan Rogue S review from North America
"Sporty, good looking, well designed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing yet.
General comments?
Very pleased with this purchase. We were close to buying a Ford Escape, but this is more spirited, sleeker, and fun to drive.
Handles very much like a car, not a truck or SUV. CVT is smooth: I'm surprised more cars don't have it.
Excellent clearance, good handling all around. We've gone through snow, ice, and rain this month alone with no troubles.
Perfect height for lifting in groceries.
Base package is a little too cheap for our tastes: Having to turn our own headlights on, or not having a trunk light. But it wasn't worth the cost to upgrade to the next package.
