We built a brutal course with one pothole after another. Engineered to push the Rogue's suspension to the limits, with grueling turns, treacherous terrain, and relentless impacts. Because if it can endure all of that here, it's ready for you out there.
Now, discover the features that contribute to making Rogue durable—so you can drive with confidence.
Rogue's suspension components help you take the ride in stride with independent, twin-tube steel and aluminum struts with coil springs up front, and twin-tube shocks with frequency damping in back.
Rogue's Xtronic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)® has been durability tested on more than 2.6 million miles of public roads. These next-gen, heavily tested CVTs help provide smooth and effortless acceleration, climb uphill with ease and offer a quiet ride.

NISSAN TESTING CENTER | ARIZONA, USA
At the Nissan Testing Center, we subject our vehicles to the equivalent of 15 years wear on the drivetrain, powertrain and chassis components in just 5 months. It’s called a Drive Load Test, and failure is not an option.
