When you are in the market for a new vehicle, it can be tough to decide which model is right for you when there are so many models that appear similar on the market today. Especially when it comes to SUVs, discerning their differences and determining which one offers more of the features and capabilities you are looking for can be difficult. That is why doing comparisons can be so helpful, because it allows you to take two models that appear very similar and put them up side by side to examine their differences and find the one that fits your needs. This comparison looks at the base models of the 2018 Jeep Wrangler vs 2018 Nissan Rogue.
While the Rogue has a lower starting price point and higher fuel efficiency estimates, the Jeep Wrangler has more comfort, convenience, and performance features that make it the better option overall for consumers. Both the Rogue and the Wrangler have sporty, athletic exterior designs. The Rogue seats five passengers, while the Wrangler seats four, but has advanced features like removable rear windows to let in the maximum amount of fresh air. Let's take a closer look at some of the key differences between these two models!
