Nissan Priced the 2026 Rogue - No Rogue Hybrid Yet
Nissan is struggling, making its most important model, the Rogue, even more vital to its bottom line. Most expect the automaker to update the SUV with a new hybrid model soon, but Nissan’s 2026 Rogue announcement is free of anything other than light updates.
To be fair, Nissan could, and likely will, announce more about the Rogue Hybrid later on this year. For now, the 2026 Rogue has a new Dark Armor trim, which builds on the SV model with black exterior accents, 19-inch wheels, a black roof, and more. It also gets a 360-degree camera system, a panoramic moonroof, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel.
The Rogue’s powertrain carries over from 2025, which includes a turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine, which produces 201 horsepower and 225 pound-feet of torque. It’s paired with a continuously variable transmission and either front- or all-wheel drive. While relatively efficient, the three-cylinder is buzzy and noisier than expected, though it’s decently powerful.
A 12.3-inch touchscreen with Google built-in is available, but an 8-inch unit comes standard. All models have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with the larger display offering wireless connectivity. Nissan ProPilot 2.1 is available, which brings hands-free driving on limited-access highways.
The 2026 Rogue starts at $30,180, a $200 increase over the 2025 model. Nissan hasn’t released pricing for the new Dark Armor trims yet, but the top Platinum model costs $40,380 after destination.

- Oberkanone Dacia makes product line of affordable vehicles. An entire product line. One vehicle is not the answer for all needs. Dacia does affordable well.
- YaMoBeThere This is an egregiously bad AI generated article, the middle of the article is repeated twice... but yea go ahead and nitpick about my comment pointing that out
- Slavuta Is this Ok if I use OEM all weather floor mats? Yes, the ones that came with 2011 Mazda3 were not good. But the ones in 2017 Mazda6 are excellent. BTW, in that picture, Grand Cherokee on Kumho tires. Is this also an advert or just coincidence?
- Bar170111344 "GM was on track to spend $31.7 billion on compliance technology through 2031."I'll just mention, that expenditure would have gone into research and development, and that would have driven U.S. manufacturing innovation. On the industrial side, R&D is necessary for U.S. manufacturers to remain competitive in the world. It's absolutely no surprise China is running rings around us. The prospective $ savings GM is looking forward to hasn't impressed the stock market. Year-to-date return of -5.65%. -7.05% in the last month. PE 20:1, inflated by the falling share price. Not to be insulting by any stretch, but it has never been like Mary Barra to get out ahead of anything. She's not an innovator and not a risk taker. She's a good engineer.Honestly - in that industry, which I worked in for decades, being regulated is like having a security blanket. You can be mediocre, blame it on regulation, and still make a buck. And with the federal government now digging an even deeper moat around GM and Ford, it's clearly suppressing American innovation and excellence.

^^ ANAL with his typical falsehoods (in his HATRED for the Koreans) - lol
Tucson/Sportage combined sales are around that of the CR-V; no one else has the production capacity to pump put as many compact CUVs as Toyota the RAV-4.
Interesting enough, the Tucson/Sportage each far outsell the RAV-4 in the UK/EU and Honda overall sales in Europe are tiny (Mazda far outsells Honda in Europe and other markets like Australia).
Reason why no E-power yet for the Rogue is that Nissan is still finishing the development of a more powerful version for the US market.
