2018 Nissan Rogue SV AWD Midnight Edition Detailed Walk Around Review

Hello ladies and gentlemen it's Christopher here from Cars Unlocked. Today we'll be checking out the 2018 Nissan Rogue Midnight Edition. So we are presenting to you the 2018 Nissan Rogue SV Midnight Edition. It's the middle package. Comes in the SV and the SL but this is right here in the middle. This specific model is going to come also with a technology package which gives you the GPS navigation, the around view monitor. It does come with our halogen headlights and our LED daytime running lights. Our LED fog lights are down below. You get these black accents. You get the black black wing grille which is normally chrome and the lower front bumper accent is black which is also normally chrome. You can see in this 18 package they did flatten out the Nissan emblem. That is because there is a sensor behind there for the forward intelligent emergency braking. So it's going to stop for you. All of our badging is blacked out as well. You can see our Rogue badging and our SV all-wheel drive badging is all blacked out and you do get the exclusive Midnight Edition badging right there. Our backup camera is right below our Nissan symbol. Again with the Midnight Edition you do get the black mirrors as well. They are breakaway mirrors and our LED turn signal indicator is on the mirror as well. It also has a little dimple there that is for the around view monitor. So there's cameras on each side of the vehicle which is going to make it easier for you when you're parking and I'll get to that in a second. The rims on this are 17 inch black aluminum alloy wheels. You only get the black when you go into the Midnight Edition. It's going to come with four wheel vented disc brakes and the four wheel anti-lock braking system. A couple safety features, the electronic brake force distribution and the brake assist, intelligent trace control and Nissan's active ride control. Okay checking out under the hood. They didn't change much under the hood in the 2018 models. It's got Nissan standard 2.5 liter 16 valve four cylinder engine which is going to pump out about 170 horsepower at 6,000 rpms and the torque is 175 pounds feet at 4,400 rpms. You can choose front wheel drive or all-wheel drive but this SV Midnight Edition comes in the intelligent all-wheel drive which a bunch of features like the hill start assist. It is the Nissan CVT Xtronic and you do have that sport mode shifter so you can shift through your gears if you want to select it manually. What people love about the Rogue is that it's good on fuel. It's a 55 liter fuel tank. You're going to be looking at 9.7 liters per every 100 kilometers in the city and 7.4 liters per every 100 kilometers on the highway. Okay so let's take a look at the key. When you get the technology package on this SV Rogue you do get the remote starter so I just need to lock the vehicle here and click and hold the remote start button and it will automatically start up there for me. I also have our lock, our unlock and our trunk release button as you can see and then our panic is down below. You can turn off the remote starter just by pressing the button there. Nissan's intelligent system is here with the key fob. I just need to push the button on the door and I can unlock and lock the door. Checking out the interior. Right away when I get in I do see the nice Rogue kick plates. Those are an accessory. They don't come standard. It is an eight-way power adjustable driver's seat. With this SV package you do have the cloth. It's a nice two-tone cloth and Nissan's patented zero gravity seats are present. They also come with these rubber mats as well. This is exclusive to the midnight edition so it's almost like a weather tech mat. It's going to help keep the vehicle clean. Very great in the Canadian winter. Okay now we're checking out the steering wheel. Nice d-shaped wheel as you can see makes for a lot more legroom. Nissan symbol is right there hitting you and then we do have our radio controls. These controls will control the vehicle information screen which you can see is in between our instrument cluster and then we have our bluetooth for our phone and our cruise control which is right here. This button is for the intelligent cruise control so it comes with this technology package. You just set the car lengths that you want to be from the vehicle in front of you and it will automatically adjust the cruise control. Down by my left knee there are a few controls here. Our vehicle traction control I can turn on and off. Our power lift gate I can open and close. I can lock and unlock the fuel tank. Our heated steering wheel is here and I can lock it in all-wheel drive and then our sport and economy controls are here. There's three different drive modes, sport, normal and eco mode and I can toggle them on and off using those switches. Our vehicle information screen is the same as last year's model. I can see my average speed, my fuel economy, my navigation, our radio and then those are our driving assistance for the blind spot warning and that intelligent emergency braking, tire pressure guide and then our main menu there. So not too many changes to the infotainment system. Very standard same shifter knob. Okay it's got the nice leather here and then as I said I can slap it to the left if I want to use the sport mode. USB is down below and then we have this pretty standard Nissan heating system. Our digital climate control it's going to come on just like the thermostat in your house and then I can control my left and my right side of the vehicle using each knob here. I'm just going to turn that down and let's take a look at the screen. Very large it is the seven inch touchscreen here. I can adjust it and I can choose which shortcuts I have. This being the technology package it does come with the GPS navigation. Very easy to use. You can enter your addresses manually using the buttons here or I can use the voice commands. It also being the technology package comes with this 360 camera. So you can see I get a bird's eye view of the vehicle on the right hand side and then I have my forward facing camera and if I put it in reverse the backup camera comes on automatically. What's included in the technology package is that 360 camera which you can see there and it also comes with the front end moving object detection. So you can see where it says MOD there that's going to tell us if someone is walking by or another car goes through the front side of the vehicle. Overall I do really like the interior of these Rogues. You do get the nice two-tone cloth, the zero gravity seats, the quick comfort heated seats are very very comfortable and I'm going to hit you with my favorite part which is right there. Bam! The panoramic moon roof. This is something you get when you go up to the SV package. It's all power and I just need to push a button I can open it and stop it. I can keep it as far open or as far closed as I like. Everybody's favorite part if you don't like it it tucks away and you can barely notice it but it is a super large panoramic roof that you get when you go up to this SV package. Moving on to the rear very large back seat. It is an elevated back seat as you can see it is higher up than the front seats so our passengers can still see out above. There is ventilation in the back and again those midnight edition rubber mats are included with this package to help keep the vehicle clean. So another added piece of technology package you get when you go up to the technology package is the motion activated lift gate. So I just need to kick my foot below there and it should open up. You got to be pretty close and you just have to have the key fob in the pocket and here is your cargo area. In the SV you get the privacy cover and then Nissan's divide and hide storage. I can adjust the shelves any way I like to fit whatever I have. That's just your regular cargo area there you can add and remove any of those shelving units and then the seats fold down. You just got to pull the levers there and you can see there's lots of space now if you do your Ikea shopping or whatever you need to fit back there.
