The 2026 Nissan Rogue stays right in its lane: a compact SUV with two rows, room for five, and a small turbo engine tuned for strong mpg. Every gas Rogue uses a 1.5-liter VC-Turbo three-cylinder with 201 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque, paired with an Xtronic CVT and either front-wheel drive or available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. Nissan quotes up to 33 mpg combined gas mileage.
The gas Rogue lineup splits into five trims: S, SV, Dark Armor, Rock Creek, and Platinum. All include Nissan Safety Shield 360, an 8- or 12.3-inch touchscreen, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. If you want three rows and a plug-in hybrid setup, there’s a separate Rogue Plug-In Hybrid on the way. This breakdown focuses only on the five gas trims you can shop now. Prices below reflect MSRP plus a $1,495 destination charge and don’t include tax, title, license, or dealer fees.
2026 Nissan Rogue Gas Trim Levels
2026 Nissan Rogue S: $30,585 (FWD) / $31,985 (AWD)
For budget-minded shoppers who still want modern safety and space.
The S is the value anchor. It pairs the 1.5-liter VC-Turbo engine (201 hp / 225 lb-ft) with front-wheel drive and an Xtronic CVT, delivering up to 33 mpg combined in its most efficient configuration. You get the familiar two-row Rogue footprint: seating for five, 36.5 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row, and up to 72.9 cubic feet with the rear seats folded.
Key Rogue S features include:
- 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels
- Cloth seat trim
- 8.0-inch NissanConnect touchscreen
- 7.0-inch Advanced Drive-Assist Display in the instrument cluster
- Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- 4-speaker audio system
- Nissan Safety Shield 360 (Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Rear Automatic Braking, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, and High Beam Assist)
If you’re chasing the lowest payment and want a roomy compact SUV with standard driver-assist tech and core infotainment, the S gets you into a balanced Rogue for 2026.
2026 Nissan Rogue SV: $31,585 (FWD) / $32,985 (AWD)
For drivers who want more comfort, bigger wheels, and available driver assist.
The SV builds on the S with a bit more polish. It keeps the 1.5-liter VC-Turbo drivetrain and offers both front-wheel drive and available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, with efficiency that can still reach up to 33 mpg combined in FWD form. Visually, it moves to 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, and inside it gives the driver a better seat and richer instrumentation.
Key Rogue SV additions over S:
- 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels
- Premium cloth seat trim
- 8-way power driver’s seat with 2-way power lumbar
- 6-speaker audio system
- 12.3-inch digital meter display in the instrument cluster
- Available packages that can add a power liftgate, panoramic moonroof, heated front seats, and heated steering wheel
- Ability to be equipped with Nissan’s ProPILOT Assist driver-assist system
If you plan to keep your Rogue for everyday commuting and family duty, the SV is the natural step up: more comfort, more information in front of you, and access to the extra convenience and assist tech many buyers now expect.
2026 Nissan Rogue Dark Armor: $34,435 (FWD) / $35,835 (AWD)
For drivers who want more comfort and style than the SV without jumping all the way to Platinum.
Dark Armor keeps the Rogue’s 1.5-liter VC-Turbo three-cylinder engine (201 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque) and Xtronic CVT, with a choice of front-wheel drive or available all-wheel drive. EPA estimates for Dark Armor FWD are up to 29 mpg city, 36 highway, and 32 combined on regular unleaded.
Key highlights include:
- 19-inch black aluminum-alloy wheels specific to the Dark Armor trim
- Gloss-black exterior trim on the grille, mirrors, pillars, and roof rails for a full blackout look
- Satin black roof rails that match the rest of the dark exterior package
- Dark Armor–specific exterior badging
- Prima-Tex® seat upholstery, unique to this trim in the Rogue lineup
This is the Rogue to choose if you like the SV’s size and drivability but want a factory blackout package and trim-specific upholstery that you won’t find on the other Rogue models.
2026 Nissan Rogue Rock Creek: $35,485 (AWD)
For buyers who want standard AWD with a more rugged personality.
Rock Creek is the adventure-themed Rogue. It uses the same 1.5-liter VC-Turbo engine and Xtronic CVT, but all-wheel drive is standard, paired with a more trail-ready wheel and tire setup. Nissan estimates up to 28 mpg combined in its more aggressive configuration, which is solid for an AWD compact SUV with all-terrain tires.
Key Rogue Rock Creek elements:
- Standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive
- 17-inch dark-finished aluminum-alloy wheels
- All-terrain tires
- Rock Creek leatherette-appointed seats
- 12.3-inch digital meter display
- 8.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Drive-mode dial with additional terrain-oriented modes when equipped
If you like the SV’s basics but want standard AWD, tougher-looking wheels and tires, and a darker, more outdoorsy vibe, Rock Creek is the Rogue that feels most at home on gravel roads and bad-weather days.
2026 Nissan Rogue Platinum: $40,485 (AWD)
For shoppers who want the most tech, leather, and screen real estate.
Platinum is the top gas trim, aimed at buyers who want near-luxury features in a compact wrapper. It keeps the 1.5-liter VC-Turbo engine and Xtronic CVT, with a choice of front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. In front-wheel drive form, Platinum is rated up to 32 mpg combined; all-wheel drive versions can reach up to 31 mpg combined.
Where the Platinum trim really separates itself is in the cabin. The seating, screens, and sound system all move up a class, and this is the only gas Rogue with a 12.3-inch NissanConnect touchscreen paired to a Bose Premium Audio system.
Key Rogue Platinum upgrades:
- 19-inch unique aluminum-alloy wheels
- Quilted semi-aniline leather-appointed seats
- 12.3-inch NissanConnect touchscreen display
- 12.3-inch digital meter display
- Bose 10-speaker Premium Audio system (including subwoofer)
- Wireless Apple CarPlay, with Android Auto capability
- Available panoramic moonroof
- Available tech package with ProPILOT Assist 2.1 and additional driver-assist enhancements
If you want your Rogue to feel as modern and upscale as possible, Platinum is the one that brings the largest screens, richest leather, and premium sound together in a single trim.
2026 Nissan Rogue Plug-In Hybrid Preview
Alongside the gas Rogue, Nissan has announced a separate Rogue Plug-In Hybrid arriving in early 2026. It’s a three-row, seven-seat model with a plug-in hybrid system combining a 2.4-liter gasoline engine, twin electric motors, and a 20-kWh battery. Nissan targets 248 horsepower, 332 lb-ft of torque, up to 38 miles of all-electric driving, and up to 420 miles of total range, with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive standard and multiple drive modes.
The Rogue Plug-In Hybrid also adds features like three digital displays, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless charging, and premium interior trims. Nissan hasn’t published trim names or pricing yet, so consider it a separate, upcoming option rather than part of the four-trim gas lineup above. Watch a preview of the Nissan PHEV below:
What 2026 Nissan Rogue Trim Is Right for Me?
Best for the lowest possible price
Choose the Rogue S if you want the most affordable way into a new Nissan crossover with strong fuel economy, a full Safety Shield 360 suite, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It’s ideal if keeping costs down while enjoying a spacious, efficient SUV is your goal.
Best for comfort and value
Go for the Rogue SV if you want a better driver’s seat, larger wheels, and the option to add more comfort and driver-assist tech. It’s the all-rounder of the lineup and a natural fit if the Rogue will be your main commuter and family car.
Best for all-weather and light adventure
Pick the Rogue Rock Creek if you want standard all-wheel drive, all-terrain tires, and a more rugged look. It’s great for drivers who see a lot of rain, snow, or dirt roads but it still drives comfortably on pavement.
Best for near-luxury tech and trim
Target the Rogue Platinum if you want the most screen, the best audio, and the fanciest seats. The leather, dual 12.3-inch displays, and Bose system give it a more premium feel while staying in a compact footprint.
If you’re willing to wait and want three rows plus plug-in capability, keep an eye on the upcoming Rogue Plug-In Hybrid, which will sit alongside these gas trims as a separate, electrified choice.
