Should You Buy a 2026 Nissan Rogue or Grab a Discounted 2025?
The Rogue is one of Nissan's best-selling vehicles in the US, playing a crucial role in the struggling automaker's lineup. In a segment that's growing more competitive, especially with the fully revamped 2026 Toyota RAV4 and Mazda CX-5 arriving, Nissan's update is surprisingly restrained. Following the 2024 facelift, changes are minimal: a small price adjustment, a new trim level, and some added tech features. The 2026 lineup sees a $200 increase across most trims, while the Platinum AWD gets a rare $1,000 price cut. For buyers deciding between the outgoing 2025 stock and incoming 2026 models, the updates are subtle enough to make a discounted 2025 unit appealing-especially with many dealers clearing inventory at aggressive prices. For 2025, the Rogue starts at $28,590 for the S FWD and reaches $39,990 for the Platinum AWD before destination charges. Trims like the SV AWD list for $30,990, while the off-road-styled Rock Creek AWD is priced at $33,490. Nationwide listings on show substantial markdowns, particularly on SV and SL grades, with savings often in the $2,000-$4,000 range depending on location and dealer incentives. The powertrain remains identical between 2025 and 2026 – a 1.5-liter VC-Turbo 3-cylinder producing 201 horsepower and 225 lb-ft, paired with Nissan's Xtronic CVT – so there's no performance loss in choosing a 2025. For value-focused buyers, these discounts may outweigh the modest updates in the next model year. Opting for a 2025 Rogue means skipping several 2026 updates. The new Dark Armor trim joins the lineup, positioned between the SV and SL. It brings blacked-out exterior accents, satin black roof rails, 19-inch gloss black wheels, and SV-based equipment that includes heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, panoramic moonroof, and Nissan's HD Intelligent Around View Monitor. It will be offered in both FWD and AWD, though pricing has yet to be confirmed. Tech upgrades are also part of the 2026 package. All models gain Google Built-In, integrating Google Maps, Assistant, and Play into the 12.3-inch touchscreen. The Platinum AWD now offers ProPilot 2.1, Nissan's latest semi-autonomous system that enables limited hands-free driving on single-lane freeways. However, if you want something truly groundbreaking, you will need to wait further for Nissan's upcoming electrified option. The Rogue e-Power is confirmed for the US but won't arrive until the brand's 2026 fiscal year, likely as a 2027 model. Choosing a 2025 Rogue means sticking with the gasoline-only setup, even as competitors like the RAV4 move to all-hybrid lineups. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

'Just Beware:' Woman Buys A 2025 Nissan Rogue. She Says This One Feature Can Be Risky If You Don't Pay Attention
A Nissan driver is going viral after flagging a feature in her 2025 Rogue that she says can be confusing to new drivers, and worth knowing about before getting behind the wheel. June Penny ( @junepenny ) says she drives a 2025 Rogue and has one major gripe with the gear shift. It's not just frustrating—she warns it could actually be risky if drivers aren't paying attention or haven't used it before. Get the best news, reviews, columns, and more delivered straight to your inbox, daily. back Sign up For more information, read our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use . 'If you plan on getting the Nissan Rogue 2025, just beware,' she says in a recent TikTok. Unlike most vehicles where the gear shift locks into park when moved to the top-most position, the Rogue requires drivers to press a separate button marked with a 'P.' The gear shifter also isn't a physical stick that moves into position when you're ready to be in Drive or Reverse. It's more of a clicker toggle that returns to a center position when it's ready to drive forward or back up. Here's a demonstration from Nissan, which admits that the electronic shift lever "operates differently than a conventional shift lever." Penny admits it took some time to get used to the change. 'You think you're in park, [but] you are going back,' Penny says. 'It took me a few times to get used to this. Keep that in mind if you know someone who wants this car.' As of Sunday, Penny's video had drawn more than 27,900 views. How to Drive the 2025 Nissan Rogue Trending Now Rock Hits Woman's Rental Car, Cracks Windshield. Then She Tries a $20 Repair Kit 'I Know the Feeling:' San Antonio Woman's Car Stolen Overnight in Her Apartment Complex. It's Not Just Her To shift into reverse or drive in the 2025 Nissan Rogue , you'll need to use its electronic gear selector. Press the button on the side of the shift lever, then push it forward for reverse or pull it backward for drive. To park, as Penny demonstrated, press the separate 'P' button located on the shifter. Why Is It Designed This Way? The 2025 Nissan Rogue , along with other Nissan models, ditches the old-school mechanical gear linkage in favor of an electronic gear shift system. That shift allows for more design flexibility, like a sleeker dashboard and increased interior space. The 'P' button locks the transmission to prevent the car from rolling, and it's tied to the vehicle's electronic parking brake, which activates even when the car is off. More Automation, Less Clutter The Rogue's electronic system includes a few extra perks. There's an automatic brake hold in which the brakes stay applied when the vehicle is stopped, and release when you press the gas. The parking brake can also disengage automatically when you shift into gear and hit the accelerator. It's all designed to streamline the driving experience. Whether it succeeds—or just confuses drivers—depends on who you ask, but many modern cars come with a learning curve like this one. Nissan Drivers Adjust Penny's not the only one who struggled with Nissan's electronic shifter. In the comments of her video, other drivers admitted they also needed time to adjust. 'Getting into neutral for a car wash was brutal until I figured out the trick,' one woman wrote. 'I don't know how to get my Pathfinder in neutral,' another added. 'I panicked in the car wash one time.' 'I have a 2021 and, yeah, it was definitely a change,' a third commenter said. 'But tbh it didn't take too long to get used to.' Others pointed out that the car actually handles some of the parking for you—no need to panic about hitting the wrong button. 'The car automatically goes into park once you turn it off and take your foot off the brake,' one person noted. Still, not everyone was impressed by the redesign. Some drivers said they'd rather stick with a traditional gear shift and feel Nissan is doing too much. 'I hate how automakers feel like they have to reinvent the freaking wheel with their shifters,' one wrote. 'That's dangerous,' added another.
