Until 2017, the Qashqai was not offered in North American markets. Instead, Nissan offered the Nissan Rogue. Although larger and appearing to be a completely different model it is based on the same basic platform as the Qashqai / Xtrail with some visual similarities. In Mexico, the X-Trail and Rogue are both sold and the Qashqai is about to be offered in the Mexican Market. In January 2017, Nissan announced the second generation Qashqai will be sold in the United States and Canada (called the "Rogue Sport" in the United States).
