Finding the right SUV can be a challenge for drivers in Ramsey. Looking for all the capability you need with plenty of main cabin amenities can be a difficult balance to strike. Two standout models are the 2024 Subaru Outback and the 2024 Nissan Rogue. But which one works best for your lifestyle? Learn more about these dynamic SUVs below, which can be purchased at Liberty Family of Dealerships.
Engine
The Subaru Outback is built with power in mind. Drivers can choose between a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, which can produce 182 horsepower and 176 pound-feet of torque. Upper trim levels like the Wilderness feature a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine making 260 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque. A continuously variable automatic transmission comes with both engine systems.
The Nissan Rogue is slightly more limited in its engine options. All trim levels ship with a 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine, which can produce 201 horsepower and 225 pound-feet of torque. This remains a strong offering from Nissan, as this engine is paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission, which can send power to front-wheel drive or optional all-wheel drive.
Performance
Capability comes in spades with the Subaru Outback. The base model powertrain is hard to deny for daily driving in Ramsey, with great amenities like hill descent control. Upper trim levels like the Onyx Edition and the Wilderness trim come with off-roading in mind. The Onyx trim features off-road-oriented driving modes and water-repellent synthetic upholstery. For a full-blown experience, the Wilderness trim features all-terrain tires, upgraded all-wheel drive with low-ratio settings, a lifted suspension, a front skid plate, and a roof rack with a 700-pound weight limit. Go wherever you want in the Subaru Outback without hesitation.
The Nissan Rogue provides plenty of power for what could be considered a routine daily driver SUV. The engine pumps out plenty of power, helping you get around in a variety of driving scenarios. While this vehicle has plenty of capability, it is not as versatile as the Subaru Outback. Off-roading would not be recommended in the Nissan Rogue, but the vehicle's all-wheel drive does mean it will be ready to handle rugged terrain at a moment's notice.
Interior and Technology
The Nissan Rogue offers a variety of plush amenities from the start. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are matched up to a handy eight-inch touchscreen. Upper trim levels feature a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto become wireless. This is complemented by a wireless charging pad, full leather upholstery, and more.
The Subaru Outback also features a great spread of tech. The base model has automatic climate control and a four-speaker sound system, while upper trim levels feature an enlarged 11.6-inch touchscreen infotainment display, wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and heated front seats. The top-of-the-line Touring trim takes luxury all the way with a 12-speaker Harman Kardon audio system, ventilated front seats, and a sunroof.
Safety
Standard safety features with the Nissan Rogue include:
- Forward Collision Mitigation
- Lane Departure Warning
- Blindspot Warnings
- Rear Automatic Braking
The Subaru Outback ships with:
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- Forward Collision Mitigation
- Lane Keeping Assistance
- Automatic High Beams
The Subaru Outback also includes Blindspot Monitoring, Evasive Steering Assistance, and Rear Automatic Braking with the Onyx Edition trim. The Nissan Rogue also features adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assistance with their mid-ranging SV trim. The Subaru Outback features a more well-rounded safety system, but the Nissan Rogue will keep you secure for routine driving.
