2017 Nissan Rogue SL: The Ultimate Crossover for the St. Louis Suburbs

The 2017 Nissan Rogue SL represents the pinnacle of versatility for drivers who demand a vehicle that can keep up with a fast-paced Missouri lifestyle. Imagine starting your morning in the quiet, tree-lined streets of Oakland, MO, where the refined silhouette of this crossover fits perfectly among the well-maintained homes and manicured lawns. As you pull out of your driveway, the sophisticated Caspian Blue exterior catches the early light, signaling a professional yet adventurous tone for the day ahead. Whether you are heading to a corporate office in the bustling corridors of Creve Coeur, MO or preparing for a weekend getaway at the lake, this vehicle provides the ideal balance of luxury and utility.

Living in the St. Louis metropolitan area requires a vehicle that transitions effortlessly from the daily school run to high-end shopping districts. The Rogue SL is designed for the modern professional who values a serene cabin environment during a hectic commute. Its crossover stance offers the elevated visibility needed for navigating suburban traffic, while its compact footprint ensures that parking in tight commercial centers is never a chore. This is more than just a means of transportation; it is a mobile sanctuary that complements the upscale character of our local communities, providing a seamless link between your home life and your professional ambitions.

Performance and Capability for Every Missouri Season

Under the hood of this Rogue SL lies a dependable 2.5L I4 DOHC 16V engine, a powerplant specifically chosen for its balance of efficiency and responsiveness. Delivering 170HP, this engine is paired with a CVT with Xtronic transmission, which provides a smooth, shiftless driving experience that is particularly appreciated during stop-and-go traffic on Watson Road. The Lock-up transmission and Overdrive transmission features ensure that your highway speeds remain efficient, contributing to the impressive 32 HWY MPG and 25 CITY MPG ratings.

What truly sets this crossover apart for residents of Sappington, MO is the Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system. This Automatic full-time AWD setup is designed to monitor road conditions constantly, distributing power between the front and rear wheels to provide maximum traction. Whether you are dealing with a sudden Midwestern rainstorm or a light dusting of snow on a rolling suburban hill, the Driver selectable drivetrain mode allows you to tailor the vehicle's response to the environment. The Four wheel independent suspension, featuring a Strut front suspension and a Multi-link rear suspension, works in harmony with Gas-pressurized shock absorbers to soak up road imperfections, ensuring that your drive remains composed and comfortable regardless of the terrain.

The mechanical sophistication continues with the Intelligent Trace Control, a brake-actuated limited slip differential system that helps you navigate corners with confidence by applying subtle braking to individual wheels. Combined with Speed sensitive power steering and an Aluminum engine block for better weight distribution, the Rogue SL feels nimble and planted. For those early morning starts, the Intelligent Key with push button start and fob engine controls mean you can get moving without ever fumbling for your keys, a small convenience that makes a world of difference during a busy week.

Advanced Technology and Seamless Connectivity

In today's world, staying connected is not a luxury—it is a necessity. The 2017 Nissan Rogue SL is equipped with an Integrated navigation system with voice activation, ensuring you can find the quickest route to a new restaurant or a local park without taking your eyes off the road. The 7 inch primary display serves as the hub for your media and vehicle settings, featuring a Primary monitor touchscreen that is intuitive and easy to use. Complementing the main screen is a 5.00 inch gauge cluster display, which provides vital trip information directly in your line of sight.

Communication is handled safely through Bluetooth® handsfree wireless device connectivity, allowing you to take important calls or dictate messages while maintaining focus on your surroundings. For those who prefer voice commands, the Siri Eyes Free voice activated audio controls provide a familiar interface for smartphone users. Entertainment is never in short supply thanks to Bluetooth® wireless audio streaming and a dedicated USB port for physical connections. The Steering wheel mounted audio controls put the power of the AM/FM/SiriusXM radio at your fingertips, allowing you to cycle through your favorite stations or adjust the volume of the premium Bose speakers without distraction.

The technology in the Rogue SL also extends to environmental awareness. An Outside temperature display and Exterior temperature display keep you informed of changing weather conditions, which is particularly useful during the unpredictable transitional seasons in the St. Louis region. With NissanConnect with Mobile Apps, your vehicle becomes an extension of your digital life, offering Smart device integration that keeps you informed and entertained throughout your journey.

Premium Comfort and Versatile Interior Design

Step inside the cabin, and you are greeted by an inviting Almond Leather interior that exudes a sense of warmth and sophistication. The Leather front seat upholstery and Leather rear seat upholstery are not only durable but also incredibly comfortable for long drives. The driver is treated to a Power driver seat with 2-way power lumbar support, allowing for a truly customized seating position. During those chilly Missouri winters, the Quick Comfort Heated Front Bucket Seats and the Heated steering wheel provide immediate warmth, ensuring that your commute starts comfortably even when the temperature drops.

Versatility is a hallmark of the Rogue SL interior. The 60-40 folding rear seats feature a manual fore and aft adjustment, allowing you to prioritize passenger legroom or cargo space as needed. The Divide-N-Hide multi-level cargo floor is a game-changer for organizing your belongings, providing concealed cargo storage for valuables and cargo tie downs for larger items. Whether you are hauling groceries or sports equipment, the Power Liftgate with proximity cargo area access makes loading and unloading effortless, especially when your hands are full.

The environment inside is always just right, thanks to the Dual-zone front climate control and Rear under seat climate control ducts. Passengers in the back will also appreciate the Rear seat center armrest with trunk pass-thru and Height adjustable rear seat head restraints. Small details, like the Leather and metal-look gear shifter, Chrome and metal-look interior accents, and Fade interior courtesy lights, elevate the overall feel of the cabin. With 3 12V power outlets and Retained accessory power, your devices stay charged and ready for use even after the engine is turned off.

Comprehensive Safety and Driver Assistance

Safety is paramount in a family-oriented crossover, and the Rogue SL is engineered with a suite of advanced features designed to protect you and your passengers. The Around View Monitor is a standout feature, utilizing a front mounted camera, rear mounted camera, and side cameras to provide an Aerial view camera perspective of the vehicle. This makes navigating tight parking spots in Crestwood, Mo much simpler and safer. Furthermore, the Moving Object Detection system alerts you to obstacles that might be out of your direct line of sight.

Active safety technology includes the Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system, which acts as an extra set of eyes when changing lanes on busy highways. The Forward collision mitigation with pedestrian impact prevention system can identify potential hazards ahead and even apply the brakes if necessary to avoid or lessen the severity of a collision. When backing out of a driveway or parking space, the Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) monitors for approaching vehicles, providing an essential layer of protection in busy suburban environments.

The physical safety structure is equally impressive, featuring 6 airbags, including Dual front impact airbags, Dual front side impact airbags, and Curtain first, second and third-row overhead airbags. The 4-Wheel Disc Brakes with 4-wheel antilock (ABS) and Brake assist ensure consistent stopping power, while Electronic stability control and Traction control keep the vehicle on its intended path during emergency maneuvers. For those with young children, the Manual rear child safety door locks provide peace of mind on every trip.

Sophisticated Exterior and Design Elements

The exterior of the 2017 Nissan Rogue SL is finished in a striking Caspian Blue metallic paint that highlights the vehicle's aerodynamic lines and bold styling. The front end is anchored by a Black grille with chrome surround and Projector beam headlights with LED low and high beam capabilities. LED daytime running lights and Front fog lights ensure that you are visible to others while providing excellent illumination of the road ahead. The Auto high-beam headlights and Auto on/off headlight control add a layer of convenience by automatically adjusting to ambient light levels.

The Rogue SL sits proudly on 18 x 7-inch machined aluminum wheels with painted accents, wrapped in P225/60VR18 AS BSW tires that provide a quiet and stable ride. Practical design elements include Roof rails with Roof Rail Cross Bars, allowing you to carry up to 150 lbs of additional gear for outdoor adventures. The Power door mirrors are not only body-colored for a seamless look but are also Heated door mirrors with Turn signal indicators, ensuring clarity and visibility in all weather conditions.

Visual flair is added by the Rear lip spoiler, Chrome side window trim, and Chrome front bumper rub strip. The Deep tinted windows provide privacy for passengers and help keep the interior cool during the summer months. For those who enjoy an open-air experience, the First and second-row sliding and tilting glass sunroof with a power sunshade allows you to flood the cabin with natural light. Every detail, from the Black wheel well trim to the Chrome door handles, has been carefully considered to create a cohesive and premium appearance.
