First Test: 2008 Nissan Rogue SL
2008-04-19 11:55:00 In the ever-blurring spectrum of small SUVs and tiny crossovers, there now seems to be a car for every possible whim. Don’t believe it? Okay, say you’re young, kids are a long (long) way off, you rather fancy yourself a square peg in a round-hole world, and, most crucial, you’re the sporty type who ...

Nissan Rogue Review
2008-01-08 19:59:00 It probably seemed like a good idea at the time: introduce American car buyers to Nissan?s new cute ?ute in an episode of NBC?s hit show Heroes. And so we see the Rogue in the hands of a world saving high school cheerleader? ensuring its chick-car status for all eternity. The car is easy to boost? Why didn?t technopath Micah Sanders get a booster seat, take the wheel and show Ford the true meaning of ?sync my ride?? All of which leaves me wondering: is the Rogue good enough to survive its own marketing?From the looks of it, yes. Although the upward kinked rear window is a Murano cue without which I could do, the Rogue?s swoopy lines are generally as fresh as a pair of Puma sneakers. The height vs. width solution makes the vehicle look decidedly skinny from certain angles, but that may be part of the appeal (you can?t be too tall or too thin). And cheers to the designers for realizing nobody wants to see your spare tire.The Rogue?s design loses coherence at the front. If the crossove...

2008 Nissan Rogue Review
2007-12-05 16:08:00 IntroductionIt's not quite to the extent of Moon Unit Zappa or Apple Martin, but the 2008 Nissan Rogue should give its parents hell for its name. While its similarly styled big brother Murano is named after the glass-making island in beautiful Venice, the little Rogue is at best named after a rather dull X-Men character. At worst, this stylish cute-ute crossover shares its moniker with an uncontrolled animal that lives apart from the herd, or a plant that is inferior and unwanted. Do Nissan's marketing folks not have a dictionary in the office?Powering the Rogue is a torquey 170-horsepower four-cylinder engine that provides smooth acceleration on par with other vehicles in the class. Unfortunately, it is tied to a continuously variable transmission (CVT) -- a design Nissan has utilized with great success in the V6-powered Altima, but needs rethinking here. Feeling like it's partially constructed of rubber bands, the CVT can get maddening on the freeway, constantly raising and dro...
