The Rogue Sport looks to add to Nissan's best-selling and IIHS safety award-winning Rogue lineup by entering a compact version of the Rogue into the market. The Rogue Sport is available in three trim levels S, SV and SL. Although the Rogue Sport has but a single drivetrain option, all trims get a capable 141-horsepower 2.0L 4-cylinder engine and CVT transmission combination that achieves up to 32 mpg on the freeway when in front-wheel drive form.

The Rogue Sport S comes standard with 17-inch alloy wheels, remote keyless entry, Easy-Fill Tire Alert, Bluetooth integration, LED daytime running lights, satellite radio, a 7-inch touchscreen and Bluetooth connectivity.

The mid-level SV trim adds roof rails, push-button start, heated front seats, a 6-way power adjustable driver's seat and dual-zone climate control.

The top-level SL is very much loaded, adding unique 19-inch wheels, heated leather seats and steering wheel, an integrated navigation system, remote start and Nissan's Around-View Monitor bird's-eye-view camera system.

Safety features include parking sensors, an active lane departure warning system, blind spot warning, forward and rear collision mitigation and pedestrian detection prevention.
