2016 Nissan Rogue SV ReviewĪ 2015 Nissan Rogue SV FWD edition was a recent weekly test vehicle, a five-passenger SUV with an optional third-row seat. That leaves the Armada at the top of the SUV pecking order in the Nissan range. The Xterra - a midsize traditional body-on-frame SUV - was retired at the end of 2015. The Juke is the smallest of the lot, followed by the Rogue, Murano and Pathfinder. Naming choice aside, the Nissan Rogue is a compact crossover sport utility vehicle, just one of several models this Japanese brand sells in North America. Of “rogue” Merriam-Webster describes as, “a dishonest, knavish person scoundrel.” The second dictionary definition may be more in line with what Nissan was thinking, “a playfully mischievous person scamp.” The Nissan Rogue has one of those names that slipped through the cracks, although it is doubtful whether the true meaning of the word is known by many. Most such names, including the Mazda Bongo and the Mitsubishi Pistachio, never make it to the US as marketers wisely intervene and demand changes. Car manufacturers sometimes choose odd names for their vehicles.
