Hyundai Tucson vs. Nissan Rogue | Andy Mohr Hyundai

Find the Performance To Suit Your Lifestyle Needs

First up is the Rogue, the standard engine in this SUV puts out 181 horsepower. While this powertrain is well-equipped to create a sleek and bold performance on the open road, this is, unfortunately, the only powertrain option in this car. On the other hand, the Tucson has a two-engine lineup, allowing you to choose the one that fits your action-packed lifestyle best.

In addition to a refined baseline motor, this vehicle offers an available 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder engine generating 181 horsepower and 175 lb-ft of torque for either a quick and controlled morning commute or a family road trip. Although they boast matching power outputs, the Tucson offers two engine options compared the Rogue’s single-engine configuration.

Hyundai Tucson vs Nissan Rogue: Interior Dimensions and Comforts

A comfortable and roomy interior allows you to enjoy the commanding performance of your SUV even more. Fortunately, the Hyundai Tucson and Nissan Rogue offer more than 39 inches of front headroom and over 41 inches of front legroom for you to stretch out.

An 8-way power driver’s seat with power lumbar support is also available in the Tucson and Rogue, allowing you to find your ideal seating position to combat fatigue throughout your drive. Your passengers may prefer the Tucson, though, since it offers an available 8-way power passenger’s seat while the Rogue only has a 4-way seating option available.

The Tucson is also much roomier in the rear with, 54.5 inches of hip room. Meanwhile, the Rogue only offers 53.4 inches of hip room. So, if your rear passengers enjoy a little bit more wiggle room, the Tucson may be the better choice.

Hyundai vs Nissan Technology

As you relax in your expansive cabin, you’ll enjoy entertainment from your 7-inch infotainment display packed with premium features designed to engage you during the ride, like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Simply plug your phone into the USB port, and you’ll gain instant access to select applications along with your customized library and playlists.

You may have an easier time hearing your favorite tunes in the Hyundai Tucson, though, since it offers six speakers on its baseline trim while the Rogue only has four. No matter which entertainment system you select, your smartphone is an integral part of staying connected and entertained during your ride.

Safety First: Tucson vs. Rogue

Nothing is more important than keeping you protected on the unpredictable road, so we’ll end our comparison of the Tucson and Rogue by looking at the advanced safety systems they offer to help keep you protected at all times.

Both the Hyundai Tucson and Nissan Rogue are armed with standard Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) to make highway driving more secure.

However, if you’re looking for the ultimate in safety systems, the Tucson comes standard with Driver Attention Warning as well. This feature detects distracted or drowsy driving and provides you with an alert to keep you on track. While the Rogue offers a similar feature, it does not come standard.

Is the 2021 Hyundai Tucson or Nissan Rogue Better for You?

The competition was close at times, especially with similar front headroom and legroom and standard entertainment systems. However, after careful review, we think our neighbors in the Bloomington, Martinsville, and Ellettsville, Indiana, area will prefer what the Hyundai Tucson has to offer over the Nisan Rogue.

With more rear wiggle room, passenger comforts, premium safety systems, and engine options, the Tucson sailed ahead of the competition, making it an ideal ride for you.
