The 2022 Nissan Rogue Gets A Techy New Powertrain. Does It Work?

Better power with increased efficiency. To see how well it works, Tom Voelk road trips from Seattle, WA to Bend, OR to check out the power delivery and fuel economy. He’s driving a fully loaded Platinum AWD model in Caspian Blue Metallic.
