Toyota counters with a tougher off-road image and an efficient hybrid option. Car buyers across Jonesboro, AR, wanting a smooth commute, intuitive technology, and low cabin fatigue, lean toward the Nissan Rogue time after time.

Engines and Performance Capabilities

Power for the 2025 Nissan Rogue comes from a 1.5-liter VC‑Turbo three-cylinder rated at 201 horsepower and 225 pound-feet of torque that helps with quick merges and stress-free passing. Fuel economy reaches 30 mpg in the city and 37 mpg on the highway on front-wheel-drive (FWD) models, or 28 / 35 mpg with an all-wheel drive (AWD).

The 2025 RAV4's 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine generates 203 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque, providing up to 27 / 35 mpg. The RAV4 Hybrid has increased efficiency and power output, but the Nissan Rogue feels stronger off the line because torque arrives sooner. Drivers commuting from Marion, AR, will feel the punch whenever traffic opens.

Off-Road Readiness.

The new Nissan Rogue's Intelligent all-wheel drive (AWD) adds Snow and Off-Road modes, hill start assist, and hill descent control. Traction feels predictable on wet clay, gravel driveways, and unplowed neighborhood streets. Ground clearance is in the same ballpark as that of many compact crossovers.

The RAV4 Adventure and TRD Off‑Road trims reach farther with extra clearance, chunkier tires, and unique suspension tuning. Trail grip improves, yet ride harshness and tire roar increase on the highway. Shoppers around Memphis, TN, frequently choose the calmer Nissan Rogue model for year-round pavement duty.

Interior Amenities, Seating Capacities, and Cargo Space.

Five seats, generous legroom, and Zero Gravity front chairs give the Nissan Rogue long-haul comfort. The rear bench reclines, LATCH anchors sit in plain sight, and the door openings feel wide enough for fast child‑seat clicks. Cargo space measures 36.5 cubic feet behind the second row, increasing to 74.1 cubic feet when you fold the seats. The clever Divide‑N‑Hide floor creates useful tiers for placing groceries and sports gear.

The RAV4 also seats five people and provides 37.6 cubic feet of storage behind the second row, or 69.8 cubic feet with seats folded. Toyota wins the seats‑up cube count; Rogue answers with lower road noise, plusher soft‑touch surfaces, and a dashboard that reads cleaner at a glance. Drivers with families near Little Rock, AR, really appreciate the lower bumper height when loading oversized items or items from a run to the big box store.

Technology and Safety Features.

Upper Nissan Rogue trims feature a 12.3-inch touchscreen with Google built‑in, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integrations, an available 12.3-inch digital cluster, and crisp navigation map graphics with over-the-air updates. ProPILOT Assist with Navi‑link can center the crossover, match posted limits, and ease stop-and-go. The Safety Shield 360 driver-assist technology suite comprises automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind-spot, lane-departure, and rear cross-traffic alerts with rear automatic braking.

The RAV4 lineup includes Toyota Safety Sense, an 8-inch screen or available 10.5-inch upgrade, and a digital rearview mirror on some trims. The Nissan Rogue loads faster, responds quicker, and keeps menus simple. Before your test drive, our team pairs your phone and shows you how the key features work.
