2020 Toyota RAV4 vs. 2020 Nissan Rogue
Take one drive through your neighborhood and you’re sure to see plenty of SUVs in various shapes, sizes, and colors. When you’re researching which model to park in your driveway, you’ll come across two popular choices - the
2020 Toyota RAV4 and the 2020 Nissan Rogue. Drivers love both, but in the matchup between the two, only one comes out on top. Which is it? Let’s compare them to find out.
Performance Comparison
The 2020 RAV4 is powered by one of two powertrain options: a 2.5-liter with 203 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque and a hybrid 2.5-liter with 219 horsepower. Both options have incredible fuel efficiency ratings to match their power. The Rouge, on the other hand, only offers a 2.5-liter with 170 horsepower and 175 pound-feet of torque, and it’s rated worse than the RAV4 for fuel efficiency.
The RAV4 offers more potent powertrains, is more fuel efficient, and it’s more off-road ready than the Nissan Rogue. Any trim level of the RAV4 is suited for off-road adventures, but there’s also a TRD (Toyota Racing Development) trim that offers performance upgrades to make the RAV4 even more trail-ready. The Nissan Rogue does not offer any off-road capabilities.
Interior Comparison
The RAV4 recently underwent a redesign where the interior was freshened up with a new design and lots of modern technology, while the Rouge hasn’t seen a refresh in a few too many years. While the RAV4 offers a large central touchscreen, a waterfall console, Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto, Amazon Alexa, and Wi-Fi connectivity, the Rouge only manages a small touchscreen and outdated center console design. Though Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are offered, Amazon Alexa and on-board Wi-Fi are not.
Safety Features
As more and more vehicles come with driver assistance suites, it’s important to think about what each car offers. The 2020 RAV4 comes standard with the Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 driver assistance suite, which includes:
Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection
Lane-Tracing Assist
Adaptive Cruise Control
Lane-Departure Alert with Steering Assist
Automatic High Beams
Road Sign Detection
The 2020 Nissan Rogue has:
Lane-Departure Warning
Forward Collision Warning with Pedestrian Detection
Automatic Emergency Barking
Blind-Spot Monitoring
Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
Automatic High Beams
Though both SUVs have the same number of standard features, the Rogue does not offer lane-tracing assist or road sign detection in any trim, while rear-cross traffic alert and blind-spot monitoring are available in several upper RAV4 trims.
