Imagine a crisp autumn morning in Dyer, IN, where the frost is just beginning to settle on the windshield. You need a vehicle that starts with confidence and handles the local commute with ease, whether you are heading toward the expressway or navigating the tree-lined streets of your neighborhood.

It is the ideal partner for the busy professional or the active family in Highland, IN, providing a secure and comfortable environment for everything from the Monday morning school run to weekend errands at the local shopping centers.

Performance & Capability Rooted in Reliability

The heart of this Rogue Sport S is a 2L I-4 gasoline direct injection engine featuring DOHC and CVTCS variable valve control. Delivering a balanced 141HP, this powerplant is engineered for efficiency and smooth delivery, making it perfectly suited for the 20-40 mile daily commutes common in our region. Paired with the CVT with Xtronic transmission, the driving experience is seamless, utilizing Lock-up transmission and Overdrive technology to maintain optimal RPMs whether you are cruising through Munster, IN or merging onto the highway.

When the Midwestern weather turns unpredictable, the Automatic full-time AWD system provides the peace of mind you deserve. This intelligent All-Wheel Drive setup is complemented by a Driver selectable drivetrain mode, allowing you to tailor the vehicles response to the road surface. The mechanical foundation is further strengthened by a Four wheel independent suspension, featuring a Strut front suspension and a Multi-link rear suspension. This setup ensures that even when the pavement gets uneven, your ride remains composed and steady. With an EPA-estimated 30 HWY MPG, you can spend more time enjoying the drive and less time at the pump, reflecting a practical approach to modern transportation.

Modern Connectivity and Intuitive Technology

In todays world, staying connected is a necessity, not a luxury. The 2018 Nissan Rogue Sport S features Bluetooth® handsfree wireless device connectivity, allowing you to take important calls or coordinate family plans without taking your hands off the wheel. For those who enjoy their favorite playlists or podcasts during the drive from Calumet City, IL, the Bluetooth® wireless audio streaming and Siri Eyes Free voice activated audio controls make it easy to manage your media safely.

The cockpit is designed with the driver in mind, featuring a 5.00-inch gauge cluster display and a 5-inch primary display that provide vital vehicle information at a glance. You will find Steering wheel mounted audio controls that allow for effortless adjustments to the AM/FM/CD/AUX radio system. With an Integrated roof audio antenna and a USB port for external memory control, your entertainment options are always within reach. The inclusion of a Digital clock and an Exterior temperature display ensures you are always informed about your environment and your schedule as you move through your day.

The Manual climate control system is enhanced by Rear under seat climate control ducts and Rear console climate control ducts, ensuring that everyone stays comfortable regardless of the season.

Utility is a hallmark of the Rogue Sport S. The Divide-N-Hide multi-level cargo floor and Cargo area concealed storage allow you to keep valuables out of sight while organizing your belongings efficiently. You will also appreciate the 1-Piece Carpeted Cargo Area Protector and Floor Mats which help maintain the pristine condition of your vehicles interior. Convenience features like Remote keyless entry, Power windows with one-touch functionality, and Retained accessory power demonstrate a focus on the small details that make daily ownership more enjoyable.

Safety and Driver Assistance for Total Peace of Mind

Safety is a cornerstone of the Nissan brand, and this crossover is equipped to protect what matters most.

Braking performance is handled by 4-Wheel Disc Brakes with a sophisticated 4-wheel antilock (ABS) system and Brake assist, providing confident stopping power in various road conditions.

The vehicle is wrapped in a comprehensive safety net featuring 6 airbags, including Dual front impact airbags, Seat mounted side impact airbags, and Curtain first and second-row overhead airbags. An Airbag occupancy sensor ensures the systems deploy correctly based on the passengers on board. For those traveling with younger family members, the Manual rear child safety door locks provide extra security. Furthermore, the Easy-Fill Tire Alert system takes the guesswork out of maintenance by notifying you exactly when your tires have reached the correct pressure, ensuring optimal safety and fuel economy.

Sleek Exterior Design in Magnetic Black

Dressed in a sophisticated Magnetic Black Metallic paint, this Rogue Sport S carries a modern and athletic stance. The Body-colored front and rear bumpers create a cohesive, high-end look, while the Black grille with chrome accents adds a touch of refined style. The Rear lip spoiler not only enhances the vehicle's profile but also contributes to its aerodynamic efficiency.

Visibility is a priority, provided by Projector beam halogen headlights and LED daytime running lights that ensure you are seen by other drivers throughout the day. The 16-inch steel wheels with full covers are wrapped in All-season tires, ready to tackle the changing conditions in Saint John, IN.
