For 2020, the Rogue, Nissan Canada's best-selling vehicle consecutively since 20121, continues to embody Nissan Intelligent Mobility – Nissan's commitment to reinventing every part of the drive with advanced driver assistance systems. Available technology includes ProPILOT Assist2, Nissan Safety Shield 360 and Intelligent All-Wheel Drive.
Rogue also offers a highly desirable combination of compact overall size and ample interior roominess – along with features such as Rear Door Alert (RDA)3, the innovative Divide-N-Hide® Cargo System and available Motion-Activated Liftgate – making Rogue the perfect vehicle for everyday use and family adventure getaways.
Advanced ProPILOT Assist and Nissan Safety Shield 360
Introduced in the 2018 Rogue, the ProPILOT Assist2 system can help ease driver workload by reducing the amount of driver acceleration, steering and braking input under certain driving conditions.
Tuned specifically for Canadian roads, ProPILOT Assist is intuitive and user-friendly. It can potentially help lessen driver fatigue and create a more confident driving experience – especially for drivers who experience heavy highway traffic on a daily basis. The driver's input always takes priority, overriding the system when the steering wheel is turned or the turn signal is operated (steering assistance goes into a temporary standby mode). For 2020, ProPILOT Assist is standard on the SL Platinum grade and optional on Rogue SV.
Nissan Safety Shield 360 – which features Intelligent Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Rear Intelligent Emergency Braking, Lane Departure Warning (LDW), radar-based Blind Spot Warning (BSW), Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) and High Beam Assist (HBA) – is optional on Rogue SV and standard on SL Platinum grades.
Another innovative driver assistance technology, which is standard on all 2020 Rogue models, is the Rear Door Alert2 (RDA) system. Rear Door Alert can help remind customers of items that may be forgotten in the rear seat – valuables, dry cleaning, groceries and more. If the system detects that a rear door was opened/closed prior to a trip, but then was not re-opened again after the trip was completed, given the vehicle was put in park and the ignition cycled off, the system responds with a series of notifications, starting with a display in the instrument panel and progressing to subtle but distinctive chirps of the horn.
Also offered as available on the 2020 Rogue are Intelligent Around View® Monitor (I-AVM) with Moving Object Detection, , and Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI).

Intelligent AWD initially delivers power to both front and rear wheels for improved grip.
