Engine Specs and Fuel Efficiency

wWith its advanced 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine equipped with Nissan’s Variable Compression Turbo (VC-Turbo) technology, the innovative system under the hood of the 2026 Nissan Rogue seamlessly adjusts the engine’s compression ratio in real time, delivering the ideal balance between performance and efficiency. The result is a confident 201 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque, giving the Rogue smooth, responsive power. Paired with Nissan’s Xtronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), the 2026 Rogue provides effortless acceleration and refined shifting for a comfortable, composed drive. Front-wheel drive comes standard across most of the lineup, while Intelligent All-Wheel Drive is available on all trims and standard on the Rogue Rock Creek. Behind the wheel, the Rogue delivers a quiet, confident ride thanks to its precisely tuned suspension, rigid chassis design, and extensive sound insulation throughout the cabin. Every trim beyond the base S model now includes Nissan’s ProPILOT Assist, a cutting-edge system that combines adaptive cruise control with lane-centering technology for semi-autonomous convenience. It can manage stop-and-go traffic, maintain lane position, and automatically adjust your speed to match changing speed limits. Efficiency remains a defining strength of the Rogue. The 2026 Nissan Rogue is expected to achieve up to 30 mpg in the city and 37 mpg on the highway, making it one of the most fuel-efficient and versatile compact SUVs available today.
