The 2022 Nissan Rogue Sport is a smaller version of the Rogue, not a sporty model of Nissan's popular SUV. Its looks are sporty, but its driving dynamics are standard. This extra-small SUV is larger than the more affordable Kicks, and if you're considering a sedan, it costs about the same as the midsize Nissan Altima. Considering its size, the Rogue Sport has plenty of passenger and cargo room. It also offers a long list of standard and optional advanced driver aids, some of which aren't found in rivals.
The Rogue Sport isn't sporty, but it is competent and stable when guided through corners. The steering is vague and lifeless, but otherwise this SUV is easy to maneuver in traffic and tight parking lots. The brakes are well tuned and allow for smooth stops. Rogue Sport falters in the "need for speed" department. It's one of the slowest choices available in the subcompact SUV class. In our testing, 0-60 mph acceleration took a lethargic 10.2 seconds. That's about what you get from a Toyota Prius and means that passing on the highway takes careful planning.
The value of the Rogue Sport varies. On the entry-level end, it's competitively priced, especially when you consider the ample number of standard advanced driving aids. But once you start looking at upper trims or add all-wheel drive, it quickly ends up being more expensive than its primary rivals. Here the Rogue Sport feels less like a bargain because of its interior, which is kitted out in cheap-looking materials. Warranty coverage is typical. Bumper-to-bumper coverage and roadside assistance are offered for three years/36,000 miles. The powertrain warranty is good for five years/60,000 miles.
The 2022 Nissan Rogue Sport is a five-passenger extra-small SUV offered in the base S, the midlevel SV and the range-topping SL trim levels. All Rogue Sport models come with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (141 horsepower, 147 lb-ft of torque) and a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) that sends power to the front wheels. All-wheel drive is optional on all trims.
