Innovative VC-Turbo Engine: Power and Efficiency Combined
A standout feature of the 2023 Nissan Rogue is its standard 1.5-liter Variable Compression (VC) Turbo engine. This engine, introduced in the previous model year, provides an impressive balance of power and fuel economy.

For the 2023 model year, Idle Stop Start is now standard, further enhancing fuel conservation. Working in harmony with a new generation Xtronic transmission, the powertrain delivers improved acceleration and reduced fuel consumption.
This advanced engineering translates to a rewarding driving experience and class-leading gas engine fuel economy. Select front-wheel-drive models achieve up to 30 mpg city, 37 mpg highway, and 33 mpg combined, making the 2023 Nissan Rogue an economical choice without compromising on performance.
