2024 Kia Sportage vs 2024 Nissan Rogue

How does our new 2024 Kia Sportage compare to the 2024 Nissan Rogue?

If you're in the market for a fresh set of wheels here in Ramsey, NJ, you can rest assured you'll find no shortage of compelling options here at Liberty Kia. With a great selection of new Kia SUVs, cars, and even EVs to pick from, our new Kia lineup is bursting with potential for Garden State shoppers. But perhaps the most compelling reason to pay a visit to our showroom these days is the availability of nameplates like the new 2024 Kia Sportage. This small SUV has big-time utility and performance potential. And if you're on the fence about buying or leasing a new 2024 Kia Sportage, come see how it stacks up against rivals like the new 2024 Nissan Rogue.

Engine

When it comes to engines, the new 2024 Kia Sportage has a streamlined lineup of powertrain options with a standard 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine. Producing up to 187 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque, the new 2024 Kia Sportage has more than enough power for day-to-day driving in the greater Ramsey, NJ area. The new Nissan Rogue may offer a bit more in the way of standard horsepower, but it's drivability leaves a lot to be desired.

Performance

One of the great things about models like the new 2024 Kia Sportage is the availability of trims like the new Kia Sportage X-Pro. This ruggedly equipped variant of the classic small SUV boasts features for Ramsey, NJ drivers who lead more active lifestyles, such as Active All-Wheel Drive with Multi-Terrain Modes, All-Terrian Tires, and more ground clearance to help you take on both winter weather travel and light off-roading with ease. By comparison, the new 2024 Nissan Rogue notably lacks a comparably equipped off-road oriented trim in its lineup.

Interior

The interior of the new 2024 Kia Sportage will never leave you and your passengers wanting. With an exceptionally roomy front row, class-leading rear seat legroom, and a variety of upscale features in its cabin such as heated and ventilated front seating and dual-zone automatic climate control, the new 2024 Kia Sportage delivers a topflight driving experience for everything from short trips around town to extended road trips. By comparison, many drivers have noted that the 2024 Nissan Rogue employs too many cheap materials in its cabin and lacks many of the upscale touches that the new Kia Sportage offers. 

Technology

Both the new Kia Sportage and Nissan Rogue are on roughly even footing when it comes to tech offerings. Both can be had with standard support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on their infotainment systems, not to mention conveniences like a wireless smartphone charging pad. However, the new 2024 Kia Sportage does offer a digital instrumentation display standard, which is notably lacking from the standard equipment list of the new Nissan Rogue.

Safety

On the safety feature front, both the new Kia Sportage and Nissan Rogue are remarkably well-equipped. With amenities like Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Assist, and even Adaptive Cruise control on their equipment lists, both of these new SUVs are great for safety-conscious New Jersey shoppers. However, the new Kia Sportage is slightly better on the safety front, given that it earned the prestigious IIHS Top Safety Pick award for 2024, while the Nissan Rogue did not.
