Nissan updated the Rogue partway through the 2026 model year, and the updated lineup is the one on sale now. That update is what brought in the Dark Armor grade. At launch the range ran from $29,490 for a front-drive S to $39,390 for a Platinum, before the $1,545 destination charge. Fuel economy is rated 32 mpg combined on a front-drive Rogue, 31 on one with all-wheel drive (AWD), and 29 with the Rock Creek's all-terrain setup.

The 2 figures in the MSRP row are the manufacturer's suggested retail prices set for the 2026 model year at launch, before the $1,545 destination charge. They are the figures the grades were introduced at, and they are the right way to see how the grades sit against each other. What an individual car costs is on that car's own listing.

Grades and Prices

Line the 5 grades up with all-wheel drive, which every grade offers, and they spanned $8,500 at launch, from $30,890 for an S to $39,390 for a Platinum.

Grade MSRP at Launch, Front-Wheel Drive MSRP at Launch, All-Wheel Drive Best For
S $29,490 $30,890 Getting the standard safety suite and the full 201 hp at the lowest entry price
SV $30,490 $31,890 Drivers who want ProPILOT Assist, Intelligent Lane Intervention and Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention fitted as standard
Dark Armor $33,340 $34,740 Blacked-out looks, with heated front seats and a heated steering wheel
Rock Creek Not offered $34,390 All-terrain tires, extra traction hardware and a roof rack
Platinum Not offered $39,390 Leather-appointed seating, ambient lighting, sonar and Traffic Sign Recognition

These are Nissan's suggested retail prices for the model year. Add the $1,545 destination charge to each of them.

The all-wheel-drive premium is the same $1,400 on each of the 3 grades offered both ways, so the drivetrain decision costs the same whether you shop at the bottom of the range or the middle of it.

Grade, All-Wheel Drive, in Price Order MSRP at Launch Step Up From the Grade Below Combined MPG
S $30,890 Entry point 31
SV $31,890 $1,000 31
Rock Creek $34,390 $2,500 29
Dark Armor $34,740 $350 31
Platinum $39,390 $4,650 31

All-wheel-drive prices for the 2026 model year at launch, before the $1,545 destination charge.

Destination is charged on top of every figure above. At launch that put the least expensive Rogue at $31,035 delivered and the most expensive at $40,935 before a single option was added. What a particular car costs is listed against it in our new Nissan SUV inventory in Indianapolis.

What Each Grade Brings

Grade changes on the Rogue are about wheels, cabin materials and driver-assistance equipment. The engine and the transmission are the same on all 5.

Grade What This Grade Brings
S The starting point: the 201-hp VC-Turbo engine, Nissan Safety Shield 360, and a choice of front- or all-wheel drive
SV ProPILOT Assist, Intelligent Lane Intervention and Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention, all standard
Dark Armor Black 19-inch wheels; gloss-black grille, mirrors, pillars and roof rails; heated front seats in PrimaTex leatherette-appointed trim; a heated steering wheel; a panoramic moonroof; the HD Intelligent Around View Monitor with Moving Object Detection
Rock Creek All-terrain tires on 17-inch dark-painted alloy wheels; off-road-tuned suspension; Hill Descent Control; a tubular roof rack rated at 220 lb; a unique front fascia; Rock Creek leatherette and ballistic-nylon seats with contrast stitching; a 12.3-inch NissanConnect HD display with a 6-speaker audio system
Platinum Gloss-black exterior trim; 19-inch wheels; interior LED ambient lighting; the Divide-N-Hide cargo floor; front, rear and side sonar; the HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor; Traffic Sign Recognition

Seat material changes with the grade. Dark Armor uses heated front seats in PrimaTex leatherette-appointed trim, the Rock Creek pairs leatherette with ballistic nylon and contrast stitching, and the Platinum can be ordered with chestnut-brown semi-aniline leather-appointed upholstery.

The Platinum is the only grade with the Divide-N-Hide cargo floor. Set in its low position, it opens the space behind the rear seats out to 36.5 cubic feet instead of the 31.6 every other Rogue carries.

Engine, Transmission and Fuel Economy

Every 2026 Rogue uses one engine: a 1.5-liter VC-Turbo 3-cylinder rated at 201 hp and 225 lb-ft of torque, on regular fuel. There is no engine upgrade to weigh anywhere in the range. The mechanical decisions are front-wheel drive against Intelligent All-Wheel Drive; on the Rock Creek there is also an off-road-tuned suspension and a set of all-terrain tires that no other grade carries.

Mechanical Specification Figure
Engine 1.5-liter VC-Turbo 3-cylinder
Horsepower 201 at 5,600 rpm
Torque 225 lb-ft at 2,800 to 4,000 rpm
Transmission Xtronic continuously variable automatic (CVT) with manual shift mode and paddle shifters
Fuel Regular
Fuel tank 14.5 gal

The drivetrain choice also changes the drive-mode selector, and that is the part most shoppers do not find out until they are sitting in the car. Front-wheel drive carries 3 modes; Intelligent All-Wheel Drive carries the same 3 plus 2 more.

Drive Mode Front-Wheel Drive Intelligent All-Wheel Drive
Standard Yes Yes
Eco Yes Yes
Sport Yes Yes
Off-Road No Yes
Snow No Yes

Fuel economy is set by the drivetrain first, and then again by the Rock Creek's all-terrain tires and suspension.

Configuration City Highway Combined
Front-wheel drive (S, SV, Dark Armor) 29 mpg 36 mpg 32 mpg
All-wheel drive (S, SV, Dark Armor, Platinum) 28 mpg 35 mpg 31 mpg
Rock Creek 27 mpg 32 mpg 29 mpg

Size, Cargo and Towing

The Rogue is a 5-seat compact SUV with 31.6 cubic feet behind the rear seats and 74.1 cubic feet with those seats folded.

Measurement Figure
Seating 5
Length 183.0 in
Width 72.4 in
Height 66.5 in
Wheelbase 106.5 in
Ground clearance 8.2 in
Turning diameter 35.4 ft
Front head room 41.1 in
Front leg room 41.5 in
Second-row leg room 38.5 in
Passenger volume 105.4 cu ft
Cargo, rear seats up 31.6 cu ft
Cargo, rear seats folded 74.1 cu ft
Fuel tank 14.5 gal
Towing capacity 1,500 lb (tongue 150 lb)

Weight barely moves across the range, which surprises people who expect the off-road grade to be the heavy one.

Grade, All-Wheel Drive Curb Weight
S 3,607 lb
SV 3,657 lb
Rock Creek 3,713 lb
Dark Armor 3,716 lb
Platinum 3,737 lb

The lightest and heaviest all-wheel-drive Rogues sit 130 pounds apart. The Rock Creek is not the heaviest of the 5, either: the Dark Armor and the Platinum both come in above it, because equipment weighs more than all-terrain tires do.

Every Rogue is rated to tow 1,500 pounds. That 1,500 covers the trailer and everything in it, not the empty trailer, so weigh what you actually plan to pull rather than working from a dry weight. A separate limit, 150 pounds, is the most that may press down on the hitch itself. Bring the loaded weight of your trailer in and we will check it against the build sheet on the Rogue you are considering.

All-Wheel Drive and Central Indiana Winters

Driver's view of the Rogue steering wheel, gauges and center touchscreen

One recent winter dropped under 6 inches of snow on the area. Another brought more than 30. Nobody shopping for a Rogue knows which of those winters is coming.

That unpredictability is the argument for the Rogue's Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, and specifically for the 2 extra settings on its drive-mode selector. Off-Road and Snow are the modes a front-drive Rogue does not carry. Intelligent All-Wheel Drive added $1,400 at launch on each of the 3 grades that also come in front-wheel drive. The wheel choice matters here too: the Rock Creek runs 17-inch wheels with all-terrain tires, while Dark Armor and Platinum run 19-inch wheels. On a 17-inch rim there is more tire sidewall between the wheel and the road than there is on a 19, which matters more on broken pavement than on a smooth one.

To drive one for yourself, come see us. We are on Shadeland Avenue on the east side, just off I-70, and of the Nissan dealerships in the area, ours is the closest one to Cumberland, New Palestine, McCordsville, Mt. Comfort, Fortville, Shelbyville and New Castle.

Safety and Driver Assistance

Nissan Safety Shield 360 is standard on every 2026 Rogue, from the S upward, and the Rogue holds a 5-star overall rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

The systems fitted as standard right across the range, on the cheapest Rogue and the most expensive one alike, are Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Rear Automatic Braking and Intelligent Driver Alertness. What changes with the grade is the equipment fitted on top of that.

Grade What It Fits Beyond the Standard Suite
S Nothing further; the standard suite only
SV ProPILOT Assist; Intelligent Lane Intervention; Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention
Dark Armor The HD Intelligent Around View Monitor with Moving Object Detection
Rock Creek The HD Intelligent Around View Monitor with Off-Road View and Moving Object Detection; Hill Descent Control
Platinum Front, rear and side sonar; the HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor; Traffic Sign Recognition
Platinum with the Tech Package ProPILOT Assist 2.1; rain-sensing wipers; the 3D Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor

ProPILOT Assist comes as standard equipment on every grade except the S. That is why the $1,000 step from the S to the SV is the most consequential price on the sheet.

Rock Creek and Dark Armor

With all-wheel drive on both, these 2 grades sat $350 apart at launch, and they pull in opposite directions. The table sets them side by side.

Item Rock Creek Dark Armor
MSRP, all-wheel drive $34,390 $34,740
Drivetrain All-wheel drive only Front- or all-wheel drive
Wheels 17-inch dark-painted alloy 19-inch, finished black
Fuel economy 27 city, 32 highway, 29 combined 28 city, 35 highway, 31 combined
Seats Rock Creek leatherette and ballistic nylon with contrast stitching Heated, in PrimaTex leatherette-appointed trim
Camera HD Intelligent Around View Monitor with Off-Road View and Moving Object Detection HD Intelligent Around View Monitor with Moving Object Detection
Roof Tubular roof rack rated at 220 lb Gloss-black roof rails, panoramic moonroof
Grade-specific package Rock Creek Premium Package None

Prices for the 2026 model year at launch, before the $1,545 destination charge. The Rock Creek Premium Package listed at $800.

Rock Creek is the outdoor version. It is also the only grade that gives up fuel economy beyond what all-wheel drive already costs, which is what all-terrain rubber and off-road suspension tuning ask for.

Dark Armor came in with the mid-year update and goes the other way. It carries the same 28, 35 and 31 mpg ratings as every all-wheel-drive Rogue except the Rock Creek, so the blacked-out look costs nothing at the pump.

If your winter involves a gravel drive or an unpaved lane, take the Rock Creek. If it involves a parking garage and a warm cabin on a January morning, take the Dark Armor.

Options and Packages

The Rogue's option sheet is short, and most of it is tied to a single grade.

Option or Package Where It Applies Price at Launch
Cold Weather Package SV $400
Premium Paint Any grade $450
Rock Creek Premium Package Rock Creek $800
Platinum Premium Package Platinum $990
Premium Paint with Two-Tone Platinum $1,000

Option prices for the 2026 model year at launch.

Nissan lists a second Platinum package as well. The Platinum Tech Package is what brings ProPILOT Assist 2.1, rain-sensing wipers and the 3D Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor, and it is a different package from the $990 Platinum Premium Package. Which packages an individual car carries, and what each one added to its price, is printed on that car's window sticker, and we will read it off with you.

Because each package belongs to one grade, what it does to the price lands on a single line.

Grade With Its Options Grade MSRP at Launch Options at Launch Total at Launch
SV, front-wheel drive, with the Cold Weather Package $30,490 $400 $30,890
SV, all-wheel drive, with the Cold Weather Package $31,890 $400 $32,290
Rock Creek with the Rock Creek Premium Package $34,390 $800 $35,190
Platinum with the Platinum Premium Package $39,390 $990 $40,380
Platinum with the Platinum Premium Package and Premium Paint with Two-Tone $39,390 $990 plus $1,000 $41,380

Totals for the 2026 model year at launch, before the $1,545 destination charge.

Paint is priced separately from equipment. Premium Paint listed at $450 at launch on any grade, and Premium Paint with the two-tone finish listed at $1,000 on the Platinum. Whether the color you want carries one of those charges is printed on the individual car's window sticker.

Choosing Between the Grades

Most Rogue decisions come down to 3 questions: how much driver-assistance equipment you want fitted rather than added, whether you want all-wheel drive, and how the car should look and feel inside. Which trim you land on usually follows from those 3 answers, and the table below matches each one to a grade.

What You Are Solving For The Grade Why
The lowest entry price S Safety Shield 360 and the full 201 hp are already standard, so nothing about the engine or the core safety equipment is held back
Driver assistance without moving far up the range SV The cheapest step on the sheet, and the one that makes ProPILOT Assist, Intelligent Lane Intervention and Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention standard
Traction for a bad-weather week Any all-wheel-drive grade Intelligent All-Wheel Drive adds a 5-mode selector, with Snow and Off-Road settings the front-drive car does not carry
Rough pavement and unpaved surfaces Rock Creek All-terrain tires, off-road-tuned suspension, Hill Descent Control and the most tire sidewall in the range
Looks and cabin comfort Dark Armor Blacked-out exterior details, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel and a panoramic moonroof
A fully equipped Rogue Platinum Sonar, Traffic Sign Recognition, the enhanced camera system, 19-inch wheels, ambient lighting, the Divide-N-Hide floor and the option of semi-aniline leather

There is an honest limit to this range, and it is the same one on every grade. Every Rogue seats 5 and tows 1,500 pounds, and no amount of money moves either number. If you need a third row or a heavier trailer, no version of this car solves it.

Warranty Coverage

Silver 2026 Nissan Rogue parked at a storefront as a woman walks toward it

Every new 2026 Rogue comes with Nissan's new-vehicle warranty, which runs on 4 separate clocks rather than one.

Coverage Limit
Basic warranty 36 months or 36,000 miles
Powertrain 60 months or 60,000 miles
Corrosion 60 months
Roadside assistance 36 months

Powertrain runs 24 months and 24,000 miles past the basic warranty, which leaves powertrain and corrosion as the 2 longest clocks on the car, both at 5 years. Corrosion is the one that answers the salt on these roads through the winter.

The full terms of each coverage, including how a month figure and a mileage figure work together, are set out in the warranty booklet that comes with the car. Ask us and we will go through it with you before you buy rather than after.

Frequently Asked Questions

At launch the S listed at $29,490 with front-wheel drive and $30,890 with all-wheel drive, the SV at $30,490 and $31,890, and the Dark Armor at $33,340 and $34,740. Individual prices sit with each car among the new Nissan SUVs in Indianapolis.

Yes. All 5 grades are available with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, and 2 of them, the Rock Creek and the Platinum, are built no other way. An all-wheel-drive Rogue sends power to all 4 wheels and gives you 5 drive modes instead of 3: front-wheel-drive cars carry Standard, Eco and Sport, and all-wheel-drive cars add Off-Road and Snow. On the S, the SV and the Dark Armor, all-wheel drive added $1,400 at launch over the front-drive version of the same grade.

A front-drive Rogue is rated 29 mpg city, 36 highway and 32 combined. With all-wheel drive the same grades are rated 28, 35 and 31 mpg, while a Rock Creek is rated 27, 32 and 29 mpg.

The Rogue holds 31.6 cubic feet with the rear seats up and 74.1 cubic feet once they fold.

Up to 1,500 pounds, with a separate limit of 150 pounds pressing down on the hitch itself.

It carries a 5-star overall rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and Nissan Safety Shield 360 is standard on every grade. Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Rear Automatic Braking and Intelligent Driver Alertness are standard right across the range, so the entry S carries the same standard systems as the Platinum. What the higher grades fit is equipment on top of those.

Rock Creek is the outdoor grade and Dark Armor is the appearance grade, and at launch they were $350 apart with all-wheel drive. Rock Creek brings all-terrain tires on 17-inch dark alloy wheels, off-road-tuned suspension, Hill Descent Control and a 220-pound tubular roof rack. Dark Armor brings black 19-inch wheels, gloss-black exterior trim, heated PrimaTex leatherette-appointed front seats, a heated steering wheel and a panoramic roof. Dark Armor is also offered in front-wheel drive, at $33,340 at launch, and Rock Creek is not.

No. Everything on this page, from the 201-hp VC-Turbo engine to the grade prices, describes the gas Rogue. Nissan does also sell a Rogue Plug-In Hybrid, and it is a separate model from the gas Rogue.
