2012 Nissan Rogue Now Available at Wilkes Nissan

Online, February 11, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Wilkes Nissan is pleased to announce the arrival of the all-new 2012 Nissan Rogue. With its utility and space, impressive performance and power, and standard safety features the 2012 Rogue is the ultimate crossover.

The 2012 Nissan Rogue has seating for five and offers up to 28.9 cubic feet of cargo space for everyone's gear. The rear seat folds down in a 60/40 split for even more room and a fold-down front passenger seat is also available. With all seats down there is nearly 58 feet of cargo space. A gigantic glove compartment and roomy center console allows everything to be within each reach of the driver.

The 2012 Rogue's light-weight 2.5-liter engine allows a fuel efficiency of 28 miles per gallon on the highway and 23 miles in the city. Nissan's continuously variable transmission allows the Rogue to maintain engine rpm, with no need to shift, so the vehicle is always in the most efficient part of the power band. This transmission makes for a smooth and quiet ride.

Safety is one of Nissan's top priorities and this is evident in the long list of standard features available on the 2012 Rogue. Nissan's Advanced Air bag system includes dual-stage supplemental front air bags equipped with seat belt and occupant-classification sensors. The Rogue also has front side-impact air bags building into the seats so they move with the occupant. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact air bags with roll over sensor help provide head protection for front and rear passengers in side-impact collisions. Front-seat active head restraints help reduce whiplash-type injuries to both the driver and front passenger by moving the head restraints up and forward during rear-end collisions. This long list of standard safety features helped the 2012 Rogue earn five-stars for side-impact crash safety from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
