2022 Nissan Rogue vs 2022 Toyota RAV4
The new Nissan Rogue and Toyota RAV4 both stand out in a competitive segment, and Truro Nissan is here to determine which of these mid-size SUVs reigns supreme. Each of these models boasts a striking design, reliable ride, and various features, but does the 2022 Rogue or RAV4 get the nod? Whether you're located in Truro, Bible Hill, Stewiacke, or Brookfield, NS, find out how these two models measure up in our 2022 Nissan Rogue vs. 2022 Toyota RAV4 review, and contact us at Truro Nissan to take the new Rogue for a spin.
2022 Nissan Rogue vs. 2022 Toyota RAV4 Performance
Both these SUVs pack 2.5L four-cylinder engines under their hoods, with the 2022 Nissan Rogue boasting a solid 181 horsepower and a smooth-shifting continuously variable transmission. If you're craving some added brawn, you can now opt for the Rogue's newly available 1.5L turbo engine with 201 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque. Whether you choose the base or turbo motor, standard front-wheel drive or intelligent all-wheel drive, the latest Nissan Rogue will treat you to a smooth, composed, and efficient ride. As for its rival, the Toyota RAV4 packs a good bit of pep in its four-cylinder engine, its driving dynamics leave something to be desired. Indeed, this Toyota SUV's acceleration is a little too leisurely, while its handling is reliable, but not especially agile.
2022 Nissan Rogue vs. 2022 Toyota RAV4 Interior & Exterior
This pair of SUVs can turn heads, but their designs are far from alike. For starters, the 2022 Rogue goes for understated elegance with sculpted bodywork, various aluminum-alloy wheel designs, and a striking front end with angular lighting and a sleek V-Motion grille. The new RAV4, on the other hand, will appeal to those who prefer a more rugged aesthetic, but you'll have to spend more on an upper trim to enjoy its more compelling exterior features.
The same goes for these SUVs' respective interiors. The new Nissan Rogue hits the market with an attractive bi-level dashboard, various soft-touch materials, and Nissan's patented, comforting seats. Available upholstery ranges from standard cloth to refined leather, with heated front seats, ambient LED lighting, and dual-zone automatic temperature control leading the Rogue's many standard and available comforts. If you want a cabin that's refined, modern, and welcoming in equal measure, the 2022 Rogue will suit you perfectly. The 2022 RAV4, by comparison, boasts a practical, ergonomic layout with generous cargo space, but as with its exterior, its base model is a little sparse in cabin features, meaning you'll have to go for a pricier model to enjoy optimal comfort.
2022 Nissan Rogue vs. 2022 Toyota RAV4 Trims
Both the new Nissan Rogue and Toyota RAV4 lineups include five available trims. While the Rogue's standard S model is reliable and well-equipped, its upper trims get compelling upgrades, including the peppy turbo motor, an intelligent all-wheel drive system, and larger aluminum-alloy wheels. You can also treat yourself to a ProPILOT Assist system in the Rogue SV, heated front and rear leatherette seats and a power liftgate in the Rogue SV Premium, leather upholstery and a nine-inch touchscreen in the SL AWD, and ambient LED lighting, a head-up display, and a Bose sound system in the Platinum trim. The new Toyota RAV4 lineup tells a far different story, as its base trim offers a varied safety suite, but not much in terms of creature comforts and amenities. Furthermore, if you prioritize a comprehensive tech and infotainment suite, you'll have to splurge on the XLE, Trail, or Limited trim to enjoy the RAV4's larger touchscreen options.
