Compact SUVs are for everyone. Families enjoy the extra space, while commuters enjoy the streamlined and fuel-efficient design. The Nissan Rogue Sport and the Honda HR-V are two of the more popular compact SUVs in Cherry Hill, Mount Laurel, and Collingswood, NJ, which may leave you wondering which one is right for you.
Our team at Cherry Hill Nissan is here to help you decide. We’ve created this Nissan Rogue Sport vs. Honda HR-V comparison so you can decide which SUV will better fit into your lifestyle. Let’s see which one comes out on top!
Don’t let the compact frames of the Nissan Rogue Sport and the Honda HR-V fool you. Despite their small size, these crossovers have ample space for you and your friends, as evidenced by their almost identical headroom measurements in the front and back seats. Plus, you’ll have seating for up to five passengers in both models.
We’ve already noted the headroom is similar throughout the vehicles, but why don’t you take a look at the measurements for yourself:
ROGUE SPORT | HR-V | |
FRONT HEADROOM | 39.6" | 39.5" |
REAR HEADROOM | 38.3" | 38.3" |
However, when it comes to having enough space for your legs, the Rogue Sport has 42.8 inches in the front for you to stretch out in, while the HR-V only has 41.2 inches. Taller drivers will be especially grateful for the extra room.
In addition to more driver leg space, the Rogue Sport also has a maximum of 61.1 cubic feet to keep your weekend luggage and groceries in. It may be a tighter fit in the HR-V with a maximum cargo space of only 58.8 cubic feet.
Connectivity is key to an exciting journey. Whether you’re playing your favorite tunes or calling your loved ones, both vehicles have intuitive infotainment systems that will help you stay in touch with the world around you.
So, which model will prove to have the right entertainment to keep you engaged? Coming standard in the Rogue Sport is a NissanConnect® 7-inch touch-screen display with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration. Simply plug your comparable device into the USB port to open up a whole world of entertainment, such as your curated music library.
The Honda HR-V, on the other hand, comes standard with a 5-inch LCD screen and an infotainment system that does not offer smartphone integration. You can upgrade to a comparable 7-inch system in this crossover, but it’s not a baseline amenity.
Peace of mind is paramount with your family in tow – and that’s why both vehicles come with an advanced safety suite to provide more confidence. After all, safety is one of the most important aspects of choosing your next crossover.
To help keep you firmly out of harm’s way, the Nissan Rogue Sport comes standard with Safety Shield® 360. It includes the following:
Want a system that will bring your vehicle to a complete stop if a frontal collision seems imminent? Then, you’ll need to choose a higher trim level in the Honda HR-V since those systems don’t come standard.
Additionally, the Rogue Sport offers a unique ProPILOT Assist. The HR-V has available Adaptive Cruise Control to maintain a preset following speed and distance between your vehicle and the one ahead as well. However, the feature that keeps your ride centered within its lane is unique to ProPILOT Assist.
While it was a close race in this Nissan Rogue Sport vs. Honda HR-V comparison, the Nissan Rogue Sport goes the extra mile over the Honda HR-V. Come see the added space and technology for yourself at Cherry Hill Nissan.
