The 2017 Nissan Rogue Hybrid undercuts the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid by $2,790

The Rogue was Nissan’s best selling model in 2016.

The Nissan Rogue Hybrid, the newest addition to the popular Rogue crossover lineup, offers a second powertrain choice for Rogue buyers for the 2017 model year – in both FWD and AWD applications. Like the 2.5-liter inline 4-cylinder gasoline engine-equipped standard Rogue models, the Rogue Hybrid offers freshened exterior and interior styling, additional safety, security and driving aid technology and a wide range of standard and available comfort, convenience and utility features.

Nissan announced pricing today on the upcoming 2017 Rogue Hybrid. Apart from being only one of two hybrids in this particular crossover class, at $27,180 for the front-wheel drive model, the new Rogue undercuts the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid’s $29,970 MSRP by a notable margin. Considering the Rogue was Nissan’s best-selling vehicle in 2016 and the entire lineup gets a refresh for 2017, you can expect to see more than a few of these pop up around town.


The Rogue Hybrid comes in two trims, SV and SL, both being available in front and all-wheel drive, the latter adding $4,920 to both models, but it should be noted that there’s no three-row option for the hybrid. The front-wheel drive SV starts at $27,180 with the all-wheel drive version starting at $32,100. Most notably, the hybrid version of the SV is only $1,000 more than the gasoline version, giving lots of incentive to go green. Stepping up to the SL will cost you $28,530 for front-wheel drive and $33,450 for all-wheel drive. That means the top trim Rogue is still less expensive than the base RAV4 Hybrid.


The 2017 Nissan Rogue Hybrid is powered by a 2.0-liter 16-valve DOHC aluminum-alloy inline 4-cylinder paired with a compact lithium-ion battery and 30 kW electric motor. Combined output for the hybrid system is a decent 176 horsepower. The front wheel drive model is rated at 33 mpg city, 35 mpg highway and 34 mpg combined, with the expectable dip for the all-wheel drive model to 31 mpg city, 34 mpg highway and 33 mpg combined. Optional extras include emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert.


The Rogue Hybrid is set to go on sale later this year.
