2023 NISSAN ROGUE S AWD THE BASE MODEL DIDN'T GET THE MEMO.
Somebody needs to explain something to Nissan.
When you make a base-model SUV, you're supposed to leave some stuff out.
That's kind of the whole idea.
But apparently nobody told the people building this 2023 Nissan Rogue S AWD.
Because somehow, the entry-level Rogue showed up with:
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE.
201 HORSEPOWER.
APPLE CARPLAY & ANDROID AUTO.
BLIND-SPOT WARNING.
AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING.
REAR PARKING SENSORS.
And up to 35 MPG HIGHWAY.
Excuse us?
WHO APPROVED ALL THIS?
Let's start with the engine.
A 1.5L turbocharged three-cylinder producing 201 horsepower.
Three cylinders.
Two hundred and one horsepower.
Apparently Nissan decided the other cylinder could take the day off.
And with AWD, this Rogue is ready for the completely unpredictable weather we call Massachusetts.
Snow in March?
Rain in December?
A random 70-degree day followed by freezing temperatures?
NEW ENGLAND HAS COMMITMENT ISSUES.
The Rogue is prepared.
Inside, you've got Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Navigation from your phone.
Your favorite music.
Podcasts.
And the ability to ignore the fact that you've heard the same three songs on the radio since 2009.
Then there's the safety technology.
Blind-spot warning.
Rear cross-traffic alert.
Lane-departure warning.
Automatic emergency braking.
Backup camera.
Rear parking sensors.
Basically, this Rogue is doing everything it can to keep your daily commute from turning into a conversation with your insurance company.
WE APPRECIATE THE EFFORT.
And let's talk about the color.
SCARLET EMBER TINTCOAT.
That's not just red.
That's red with a fancy name.
The kind of red that says:
YES, I'M PRACTICAL. BUT I'M NOT BORING.
You've also got flexible cargo space, split-folding rear seats, comfortable seating for five, and 17-inch alloy wheels.
Perfect for commuting, groceries, road trips, and your weekly attempt to leave Target with only the things you originally went there for.
Good luck with that last one.
And with 53,733 miles and a clean CARFAX, this Rogue has plenty to talk about.
Come see this 2023 Nissan Rogue S AWD at 24 INFINITI of Plymouth.
AWD. TURBO. 35 MPG HIGHWAY. CARPLAY. SAFETY TECH.
It's technically the base model.
APPARENTLY NISSAN FORGOT WHAT THAT MEANS.
