Small overlap front: driver-side

Rating applies to 2014-20 models

Tested vehicle: 2014 Nissan Rogue S 4-door 4wd

The Nissan Rogue was redesigned for the 2014 model year. The redesigned Rogue shares no ratings with the previous design, built since the 2008 model year and renamed the Rogue Select for 2014-15, after which it was discontinued.

Driver restraints and dummy kinematics

Action shot taken during the small overlap frontal crash test.

The dummy's position in relation to the door frame, steering wheel, and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver's survival space was maintained reasonably well.

The frontal and side curtain airbags worked well together to keep the head from coming close to any stiff structure or outside objects that could cause injury.

Intrusion into the driver's space was maintained reasonably well, and risk of injuries to the dummy's legs and feet was low.

How the driver-side small overlap front test is conducted

Small overlap front: passenger-side

Rating applies to 2018-20 models built after April 2018

Tested vehicle: 2019 Nissan Rogue SL 4-door 4wd

The Nissan Rogue was redesigned for the 2014 model year. The redesigned Rogue shares no ratings with the previous design, built since the 2008 model year and renamed the Rogue Select for 2014-15, after which it was discontinued.

Beginning with 2018 Rogue models built after April 2018, the passenger door hinge pillar and door sill were reinforced to improve occupant protection in passenger-side small overlap crashes. (Information about when a specific vehicle was manufactured is on the certification label typically affixed to the car on the driver door or adjacent B-pillar.)

Overall evaluation
Structure and safety cage
Passenger injury measures
Head/neck

Hip/thigh
Lower leg/foot
Passenger restraints and dummy kinematics
The dummy’s head contacted the right side of the frontal airbag but began to move into the gap between the frontal and side curtain airbags, leaving the head vulnerable to contact with forward structure. The inflated side curtain airbag has sufficient forward coverage to protect the head from contact with side structure and outside objects.

Driver restraints and dummy kinematics

Action shot taken during the passenger-side small overlap frontal crash test.

The dummy's position in relation to the door frame and dashboard after the crash test indicates that the passenger’s survival space was maintained reasonably well.

The dummy's head contacted the frontal airbag so far to the right that it moved into the gap in coverage between the frontal and side curtain airbags.

The passenger’s space was maintained reasonably well, and risk of injuries to the dummy's legs and feet was low.

How the passenger-side small overlap front test is conducted

Moderate overlap front: original test

Rating applies to 2014-20 models

Tested vehicle: 2014 Nissan Rogue S 4-door 4wd

The Nissan Rogue was redesigned for the 2014 model year. Two moderate overlap frontal tests of the Rogue were conducted, one by the Institute and the other by Nissan as part of frontal crash test verification. Ratings are based on both tests.

The redesigned Rogue shares no ratings with the previous design, built since the 2008 model year and renamed the Rogue Select for 2014-15, after which it was discontinued.

Action shot taken during the Institute's moderate overlap frontal crash test.

The dummy's position in relation to the steering wheel and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver's survival space was maintained well (Institute test car shown).

Smeared greasepaint shows where the driver dummy's head was protected from hitting hard structures during rebound by the side curtain airbag.

Intrusion into the driver's space was minimal in both tests, and all leg and foot injury measures were low.

Side: original test

Rating applies to 2014-20 models

Tested vehicle: 2014 Nissan Rogue SV 4-door 4wd with standard front and rear head curtain airbags and standard front seat-mounted torso airbags

The Nissan Rogue was redesigned for the 2014 model year. Side ratings are assigned by the Institute based on a test conducted by Nissan as part of side crash test verification.

The redesigned Rogue shares no ratings with the previous design, built since the 2008 model year and renamed the Rogue Select for 2014-15, after which it was discontinued.

Low beams
On the straightaway, visibility was good on both sides of the road. On curves, visibility was good on the gradual right curve and fair on the sharp right and both left curves.

The low beams created some glare.

High beams
On the straightaway, visibility was good on both sides of the road. On curves, visibility was good on the gradual right and gradual left curves and fair on the sharp right and sharp left curves.

High-beam assist compensates for some limitations of this vehicle's low beams on the straightaway, on both left curves and on both right curves.
