2021 Nissan Rogue vs. 2021 Ford Escape: The Rogue Makes the Road More Fun and Comfortable

The 2021 Rogue emerges with new features and design updates that are generating excitement around the nation. The updated styling leaves no doubt that this crossover is ready to impress and be remembered. It also features passenger and cargo volume that engages with more lifestyles, and you can add plenty of accessories, too. 

There are plenty of competitors in the Rogue's segment. This has made the company more eager to build the best crossover in its class. Here, we compare it to the 2021 Ford Escape.

The 2021 Nissan Rogue delivers AWD fuel efficiency 

Each Rogue is powered by the same engine, a 2.5-litre four-cylinder that produces a solid 181 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. Although the Escape offers more engines, the Rogue has the most efficient all-gas, AWD consumption rating when compared to the Escape's all-gas models. At a combined rating of 8.3 L/100 km, you won't be stuck purchasing a more expensive hybrid to save money at the pump. The Rogue also offers FWD in two models, both with a combined efficiency rating of 8.1 L/100 km.

The 2021 Nissan Rogue adds interior features not found in the Escape

The Rogue also offers available features that are unique and exceptional. The NissanConnect 9" Touchscreen Display with Apple CarPlay (wireless) & Android Auto elevates your app experiences and enjoyment to a new level. Wireless Apple CarPlay makes using your favourite apps easy and distraction-free, allowing you to keep up with your favourite podcasts and more. 

Bose Premium Audio is available to provide the soundtrack to your season with some of the best audio in the industry. Whether you are getting pumped up for a day at work or providing a backdrop for your campsite, Bose quality will help you make memories.

The Rogue also has a technology that the Escape doesn’t offer, which is the PILOT Assist. This feature has been enhanced for 2021 and is available with Navi-link that provides an assisted drive like you’ve never experienced before.

For additional safety, the Intelligent Around View Monitor enables you to see from above and around the vehicle. This is especially useful in congested parking lots or in areas with obstructed views. 

The 2021 Nissan Rogue has many other impressive features. You can shop for your car online with us. Our representatives are waiting for your call and can answer all your questions.
