Sometimes the car is the name we head scratching confusion. Take the Dodge Sprinter, airport van disguised, that is exactly Olympian Carl Lewis.
Or, more precisely, the 2008 Nissan Rogue SL AWD, a small crossover SUV based on the Sentra sedan platform. This pleasant little sport-utility, with a stylish 17-inch wheels and can AWD system. But "money"? Crime is a secret, malicious, Scamp. Someone You damn sure closely. Obviously, Nissan is trying to grab our attention.
And it should. 2008 Nissan Rogue is another entry in the segment of the small car-based crossover utility, part of the market, where new cars coming every day. This means to those who left me the first machine of the youth and students to take greater responsibility, but not yet ready to accept the family or crossover SUV.
A Little Off the Top
Nissan offers money only in two trim levels, S and SL. Both are available in either front - or all-wheel drive. All are equipped with 2.5 liter 16 valve DOHC inline solutions-4170 litres. With. , and 175 pound-feet of torque is sent via Nissan continuously variable transmission (CVT). Based on the platform before it recently expanded 2007 Nissan Sentra, Rogue running a long 105.9-inch wheelbase. There in the room for five passengers, with 126.4 cubic feet of passenger volume.
Rogue was stylish deliver the same look as the Nissan Murano, a car that inspires great loyalty among fans of Nissan. Differences in the Rogue two levels trimmings are small, with the urging of the SL sports belief that want moonroof for star gazing, and the roof rack for kayak or mountain bike.
Interior Monologue
If you are driving, you are first struck by the sheer number of plastic in the interior. Tyre as cheap at first, but soft-touch plastic makes it a pleasant, and silver-painted plastic surrounds look sharp.
Audiophiles that we, we appreciate Rogue optional Bose stereo, a key item on the Utes this class. It has seven speakers and a six-disc CD change, and even suggests steering wheel audio controls and speed-sensitive volume control. Since Incubus at Teloniusa Monk, sounds strong and full of life.
This Rogue SL optional leather-upholstered front seats are comfortable, but six Manual mode has its limitations as our satellite location (as pampered electronic control in the past) accidentally released angle, and it overturns the front and whacked her in the noggin with the headrest. Fortunately, the money is huge glovebox (half cubic feet in the building at Nissan measurement) was able to place a bag of ice, Advil box, pillow, two cheesecloth bandages and helmet accident.
The second row 60/40 split seat time helps maximize Rogue cargo capacity, and once down the front seat (only SL trim), it also gives the compressor can assume something is 8.5 feet. But passengers rear-seat, not the same attention as any place or reclines slide fore and aft.
The Final Frontier
The space, in fact, is that the designers apparently thought Rogue. Rogue maximum space efficiency with its huge glovebox and center console are scattered all with a CD of the cell phone, notepad and different size cups. In the back, touch of a button brings up the popup cargo organizer that has a plastic box and freight networks, which together hold food bags or means to travel too much. There are also optional removable tray under the rear cargo floor for wet dirty clothes or sports equipment.
Rogue cargo area very high mark, but the potential is actually only 56.9 cubic feet, about 14 cubic feet less than the competition. Under the deck organizer and gear compartment to steal a few critical inches capabilities, as well as increasing liftover height, and the spare wheel is also on the floor.
In any case, Chevy Suburban Rogue not. It is not designed to transport a driver, a passenger and two full-size adults (or perhaps two adults and one Roebuck) in the back. SL models maximum tow rating of 1,500 pounds may well be Jet Ski or a couple of dirt bikes.
It's the Economy, Stupid
To distinguish it from Murano with a 3.5-liter V6, Nissan has limited money for the four cylinder engine. Fortunately, it is in Perky Nissan 2.5-liter four, which delivers 170 million. With. in 6000 min -1 and (more importantly) 175 pound-feet of torque at 4,400 revolutions per minute. Balance shafts help the engine remarkably smooth delivery work.
While the combination of four cylinder engine and 3,544-pound, with the all-wheel-drive crossover does not accelerate, it is stunning, money gets up to 60 miles per hour in 9.2 seconds on the way to the quarter-mile mark in 16.9 seconds at 83 mph. Rogue also ingratiates himself respectable EPA rated fuel economy, 21 galleries in the city and 26 mpg on the highway.
Rogue CVT allows for maximum fuel economy, and the combination of CVT and torquey Banner-4 provides a quiet, carlike refinements in urban transport. Once your legs to ask for more, however, CVT to be done on the basis of the parameters to get the power you want, and the sluggish response then a lot of engine noise. In these circumstances, Rogue SL optional steering wheel mounted on a shift premium is required.
Stop or My Rogue Will Shoot
While Explorer rollover terror is largely forgotten, Nissan still wants you to know that sports can be useful safe driving on the highway. Stability control comes as standard equipment, and there is no protection curtain airbags with rollover sensor.
Rogue also has four-wheel disc brakes, brake distribution system, and even help. Although money is not restricted great grace, diving deeply and its long travel suspension hint of wheel hop, it is a stop from 60 mph in 123 feet surprisingly, their impressive class.
Rogue body of a very large Beltline, and the overthrow of the line so high in the back, making the rear view angles. Rogue rear window also extremely small. Therefore, despite the compact size, Rogue really difficult park. Of course, we can not think of those disks back for long periods of time, except protagonist Bronx Tale.
Processing is another story. Rogue relatively long 105.9-inch wheelbase allows feel relatively secure leg. As compressor (though an all-weather soft roader rather than off-road vehicles), Rogue has numerous suspension travel, and this makes high Nissan bit clumsy rapidly towards transition. However, noticeably more comfortable ride, and we have no limits down the road-feel that makes other small sport Utes seem cheap and unpleasant. Dunlop Grand Trek 225/60HR17 tires help Rogue delivery 0.79g slippery mat.
As carlike as money is all that suspension travel also has a sense of the steering is very precise, and you will constantly make adjustments to the wheel, especially when the narrow road that try his new mountain bike. Even a power-assist rack-and-pinion is one of the best we sampled, and it feels natural and intuitive.
Since then, off-road, in the Rogue long wheelbase do not encourage any of this rough terrain, but the 8.3-inch ground clearance, combined with the angle of 21.8 degrees and 19.9 degrees breakover angle allowed to Nissan manoeuvre around rocks at the camping trip.
The Name of the Rogue
Nissan set out to make a little brother to Murano, and he made this very point. 2008 Nissan Rogue better everyday car, a car that just happens to be big enough for all your stuff, but small enough to keep your monthly gasoline bill check.
But there is nothing that really sets Rogue than competition. Well, maybe a combination of CVT and four engine is to give money unique ability to provide power and fuel economy, but we still find CVT divert facility, when only four engine power with which to work.
We simply do not think that is false, rebels coordination. At this point, money is indeed a Ferret ", or badger. Of course, this kind of novelty, but it takes more than that buyers look past the standard bearers in the class, Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4.Стоматология протезирование зубов цены Реставрация зубов,
