AWD.... the 2021 Nissan Rogue is an all-new vehicle, about the same size as before but with blocky, more expressive styling that draws inspiration from the X-Motion Concept shown in Detroit in 2018. It has an upright grille and a floating roof, and the flatter hood, along with the front fenders and door skins, is made of aluminum to save weight.A 2.5-liter 4-cylinder is the sole available powerplant, and Nissan says it has massaged the engine to put out 181 horsepower, an improvement of 10 percent. Peak torque has been upped by 3 percent to 181 lb-ft. That power goes to the wheels via a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) tweaked for better acceleration and fuel economy.
