“The only issue I have is that the safety airbag sensor light has come on, and the extended warranty is saying that isn't covered...doesn't make sense to me.”
2015 Nissan Rogue: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2015 Nissan Rogue is mostly a carryover, with Eco Mode added to the automatic transmission on redesigned Rogue models. The older Rogue Select remains unchanged.
About the 2015 Nissan Rogue
Primarily 2nd generation Rogue (T32), second model year after the 2014 redesign; the cleaned S trim also overlaps with the older 1st-generation Rogue Select sold alongside it in 2015.
Nissan positions the 2015 Rogue family as a practical compact SUV built around daily use, not sporty driving. The redesigned Rogue leans on a roomy cabin, flexible seating, clever cargo storage, and a more polished interior feel, while the overlapping Rogue Select serves as the simpler, lower-frills budget version. Across both, the shared appeal is straightforward family usefulness, comfortable seating, and the choice of front- or all-wheel drive.
The S is the simple, practical choice, while the SV adds everyday conveniences such as dual-zone climate control, push-button start, and a power driver’s seat. The SL has a more upscale cabin with leather seating, heated front seats, navigation, a surround-view camera system, Bose audio, and a power liftgate.

2015 Nissan Rogue
(3,527 reviews)
“My Nissan Rogue handles incredibly well and acceleration is fantastic. No air gaps or whistling noises, completely sealed interior. There's a sensor problem but I anticipate getting that fixed.”
“Previous experience with Nissan Rogue and loved every minute driving it. Lack of maintenance and ease of driving along with features were main reasons for my opinion.”
