Hyundai Tucson Vs. Nissan Rogue

In recent years, two competitors have emerged to show their stuff in the compact SUV market. The Hyundai Tucson and Nissan Rogue are a pair of well-priced, powerful, and strikingly aesthetic compact SUVs demonstrating that a glow-up can do a lot for a new car model. But which is better? Join us today as we look at the Nissan Rogue and Hyundai Tucson and show why the Rogue takes the lead in the race for the best, affordable, compact SUV on the market.

Hyundai Tucson Vs. Nissan Rogue, Engine Specs And Performance

The first step in any breakdown is to display the hard numbers, and here is what each vehicle brings regarding engine specs and what kind of performance you can expect: Hyundai Tucson Specs

  • Engine power: 187 hp @ 6,100 rpm
  • Engine torque: 178 ft-lbs. @ 4,000 rpm
  • Transmission: 8-speed shiftable automatic
  • Fuel economy: 25 City / 32 Highway / 28 Combined MPG
  • Towing Capacity: 2,000 lbs

Nissan Rogue Specs

  • Engine power: 201 hp @ 5,600 rpm
  • Engine torque: 225 ft-lbs. @ 2,800 rpm
  • Transmission: Continuously variable-speed automatic
  • Fuel economy: 30 / 37 / 33 MPG
  • Towing Capacity: 1,500 lbs

The Nissan Rogue and Hyundai Tucson have some pronounced differences under the hood. Obviously, the Rogue can go further on a single tank of gas and is considerably more fuel efficient. Additionally, the Rogue has slightly better handling and a lower turning radius, giving it superior maneuverability. On the contrary, the Tucson has slightly more towing capacity, giving it a slight edge if you need as potent towing. Edge: Nissan Rogue

Hyundai Tucson Vs. Nissan Rogue, Special Features

There are several interior and driver assistance features that are common across the board, although Tucson lacks a few standard features that the Rogue can deliver on standard. Shared features include Bluetooth, advanced cruise control, and folding back seats for expanded cargo space. The Hyundai Tucson brings a bit of extra cargo space, thanks to its larger build. However, to balance the disparity between the pair, the Nissan Rogue has satellite radio, keyless ignition, and automated parking assistance as a standard. Edge: Tie

Hyundai Tucson Vs. Nissan Rogue, Comfort

Both vehicles can seat five and come with cloth seating and optional heated seats. You can stretch out and have relatively similar head and leg room, meaning that even taller folks will fit well in the front and back seats without much issue. There are Apple Car Play, Android Auto, and several USB ports available in the front and back seats. Overall, there is little difference between the Nissan Rogue and Hyundai Tucson regarding comfort. Edge: Tie

Hyundai Tucson Vs. Nissan Rogue, Conclusion

While the exterior aesthetic comes down to personal preference, the more aggressive front end of the Rogue has a striking facade. Performance and fuel economy on the Nissan Rogue are far greater than the Tucson, which cannot make up for its deficit despite having a slightly better towing capacity. The smaller engine on the Tucson holds it back from having a satisfying drive, whereas the Nissan Rogue hits the road in stride without holding back. Finally, the interiors are roughly comparable, with the tech in the Rogue slightly edging out the Tucson. Winner: Nissan Rogue

Toyota RAV4 Vs. Nissan Rogue

Combining the rugged utility of larger SUVs with the eco-friendly efficiency of smaller sedans, the compact SUV is the most popular vehicle in the United States today. A pair stands out from the crowd among the flooded market of small SUVs as there is nothing like the versatility of the Nissan Rogue or Toyota RAV4. However, despite being in the same sector, these two fantastic compact SUVs share the same amount of differences as they have similarities. Join us today as we look at this pair of incredible vehicles and break down why the Nissan Rogue is likely the best compact SUV for you.

Toyota RAV4 Vs. Nissan Rogue, Performance Comparison

While engines change across the model year, the Nissan Rogue tends toward having a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, whereas the Toyota RAV4 has a larger, not turbocharged, 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine. Both vehicles in their current generation can tow upwards of 1500 lbs standard, yet the Toyota RAV4 does have a special edition made for towing that can get up to 3500 lbs in weight. Conversely, the Nissan Rogue has better performance thanks to its turbocharged engine, which gets zero to sixty, roughly 2 seconds faster than the larger and heavier RAV4. Regarding fuel efficiency, they are close contenders; however, the Nissan Rogue, thanks to its lighter frame and the smaller engine, gets about 35 MPG combined compared to the 30 MPG on the bulkier Toyota RAV4 Winner: Nissan Rogue

Toyota RAV4 Vs. Nissan Rogue, Interior, Comfort, And Tech

While the choice between exterior aesthetics comes down to personal preference, the interior is where you will spend all your time with the vehicle. It must be comfortable, roomy, and equipped with all the features you have come to expect from a modern car. The RAV4 offers slightly more headroom and backseat legroom; however, the Nissan Rogue is far more comfortable to sit in for long periods. Newer Nissan Rogues come equipped with Nissan's select 'Zero Gravity' seats, which provide unparalleled comfort and relief of tension with lumbar support, pushing it a league above the standard bucket seats available on the Toyota RAV4. The Toyota RAV4 has a slight lead for cargo space, offering slightly more space per cubic foot. If your main concern when purchasing an SUV is how much you can fit inside, there isn't likely to be a competitor as the Toyota RAV4 is best in class. Yet, that does not mean that the Nissan Rogue is any slouch, and with 31 cubic feet of cargo space, it falls behind only slightly compared to the 36 cubic feet within the Toyota RAV 4. Interior technology inside both vehicles is the standard fare across the board. New and older models have the same size infotainment screens (8" on more recent models), satellite radio compatibility, wireless smartphone charging, and comparable driver assistance, which varies across the model years. Winner: Tie
