Three reasons the 2023 Nissan Rogue stands out from the 2023 Hyundai Tucson

There are a lot of different reasons why we buy a compact SUV but the most popular reasons are usually interior space, all-weather capability, and safety. If we are then able to add fuel economy and driving pleasure into the equation, well that is a nice bonus. That likely explains why the 2023 Nissan Rogue is so popular. Not only does it deliver exceptional interior space and cargo capacity, but it also happens to be one of the most powerful engines available in the segment. Better yet, this engine is also one of the most efficient. For these reasons and more, the Nissan Rogue has a definite advantage over its competition including the 2023 Hyundai Tucson.

The Tucson has a lot to offer, but the Rogue does also. Here we look at three ways the 2023 Nissan Rogue stands out from the 2023 Hyundai Tucson.

More cargo space

The 2023 Nissan Rogue features up to 3,879 L of total cargo space and it offers about 100 L more behind the second row compared to the Hyundai Tucson. The Tucson is spacious, but the Rogue is one of the most generous compact SUVs you can buy in terms of cargo capacity.

It also delivers about four extra centimetres of front headroom and more front leg room as well. The Rogue is simply a larger compact SUV than the Tucson and anyone looking for versatility will be impressed by what they find in the new Nissan SUV.

Better performance and improved efficiency

The 2023 Nissan Rogue comes standard with a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine that provides 181 hp and 181 pound-feet of torque. This base engine delivers more torque than the standard 2.5-litre four-cylinder found in the 2023 Hyundai Tucson. That said, most Rogue versions come with a 1.5-litre turbocharged three-cylinder that offers 201 hp and 225 pound-feet of torque. This remarkable engine isn't just significantly more powerful than what you find in most compact SUVs including the Tucson, but it is also a lot more fuel-efficient.

It averages just 7.6 L per 100 km on average and under 7.0 L per 100 km on the highway. That is about a litre less per 100 km compared to the Tucson and nearly 2.0 L less per 100 km in the city. This would be impressive regardless, but the fact that this engine offers nearly 50 extra pound-feet of torque compared to the Tucson is simply remarkable.

More advanced technology

Both the Tucson and the Rogue feature advanced safety and connectivity technologies, but the Rogue goes one step further with the available Nissan ProPilot Assist system. This is nothing short of the most advanced driver assistance technology you can find in this segment. The technology has the ability to follow curves in the road and can even slow down when it detects that you are approaching a highway exit or a turn in order to not only enhance safety, but your peace of mind behind the wheel. You will not find a vehicle in this segment that offers such advanced driver assistance feature. Give us a call today to learn more about the 2023 Nissan Rogue and how it stands out.
