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.

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.

About the small overlap front test

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. 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.

Driver restraints and dummy kinematics

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.

About the original moderate overlap front test

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.

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.
