2018 Toyota RAV4 vs. 2018 Nissan Rogue

Finding the perfect crossover to explore the Grassy Waters Preserve out near Palm Beach Gardens can be a challenge – at least if you believe the hype surrounding vehicles like the 2018 Nissan Rogue. Most advertisers would have you believe the Rogue has a lot in common with competitors like the 2018 Toyota RAV4, but we know better – and now, so will you.

Comfort and Convenience

Getting comfortable on the way to West Palm beach is easier in the Toyota RAV4 interior thanks to a telescoping steering wheel, which the Rogue doesn’t provide. The Toyota also includes some conveniences that Nissan seems to have forgotten:

• The RAV4 offers a 115-volt outlet on select models, allowing drivers to charge small electronics on the go.
• The Nissan Rogue omits the power outlet and also delivers 3.4 cubic feet less cargo volume, meaning you’ll have less room for gear too.

Performance

The RAV4 allows drivers to load up a small camper and head out from Stuart for some R&R, thanks to as much as 3,500 pounds of available towing capacity. The Rogue manages just 1,102 pounds, thanks in part to its lesser power offerings:

• The RAV4 has a standard 2.5L 4-cylinder engine that delivers 176-hp, as well as a 15.9-gallon fuel tank for more driving between fuel ups.
• The Nissan Rogue has a 2.5L-cylinder engine that generates just 170-hp and a fuel tank that holds only 14.5 gallons of fuel, meaning you’ll have to interrupt your travels more frequently in a Nissan.
