The consequences of reserve use for sellers are not to be taken lightly. 1  Fewer bids and lower closing values. Because of the uncertainty and hassle involved in reserve bidding, reserve auctions draw fewer (and thus lower) bids than similar non-reserve items. 2  Fewer sales overall.
We think it's one of the better handling small SUVs. Ride quality is improved over the previous generation, and the 2014 Rogue is quieter, although we noticed moderate tire noise. Towing capacity on the 2014 Nissan Rogue is now 1,000 pounds, down from 1,500 on the previous generation vehicle, both small numbers. If towing is one of your requirements, we'd suggest you look elsewhere. With relatively low ground clearance, the Rogue is not suited for off-roading.
There is little physical evidence to suggest that the Rogue is sporty in nature â it's an economy-oriented family hauler. Common across all three trim levels is the automaker's familiar 2.5-liter QR25DE four-cylinder engine, which is tuned to deliver 170 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 175 pound-feet of torque at 4,400 rpm. Also shared with both the front-and all-wheel drive models is Nissan's Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT).
