2025 Nissan Rogue vs 2025 Toyota RAV4

The 2025 Toyota RAV4 and the 2025 Nissan Rogue are both praised for their reliability, excellent safety features, and family-oriented architecture. Which, though, offers better bang for your buck and meets your requirements?

At Charlie Clark Nissan El Paso, we are committed to helping you make a smart and confident decision. We’ve compiled this side-by-side comparison of the 2025 Nissan Rogue and 2025 Toyota RAV4 to highlight how these two vehicles match up in various areas. Here’s what you need to know.

Interior Comparison

Slide in the 2025 Nissan Rogue, and you’ll instantly feel how spacious and comfortable it is. It’s a versatile, compact SUV, as easy to use as grabbing groceries on Mesa Street or as it's going out on a weekend adventure to the Franklin Mountains.

The Rogue can seat five people and provides as much as 74.1 cubic feet of cargo room at the back when you fold the seats. It offers 36.5 cubic feet of space with seats in place.

Depending on your trim, the Rogue provides you with various seating choices: easy-to-wipe-down cloth or premium semi-aniline leather. The 60/40-split folding rear seats offer plenty of utility, providing added versatility when transporting large or unusual objects. The cargo compartment is wide and level, allowing easy sliding in of boxes, strollers, or even small pieces of furniture.

The 2025 Toyota RAV4 seats five as well and offers respectable cargo room: 37.6 cubic feet with the seats in place and up to 69.8 cubic feet with the seats folded. That’s slightly less than in the Rogue, which could be important if you tend to haul bigger loads.

The RAV4 provides seating in fabric or Toyota’s SofTex material. Heated front seats and ventilated seats, as well as heated rear seats, are available on upper trims. Compared to this, Nissan offers more comfort options across its various trim levels.

Power and Performance

The 2025 Rogue’s engine is a 1.5-liter VC-Turbo 3-cylinder, producing 225 lb-ft of torque in addition to 201 horsepower. It pairs with Nissan’s innovative Xtronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) to deliver smooth and consistent power on city streets or long drives down I-10. You can also opt for intelligent all-wheel drive when you need additional control in rainy or rougher conditions.

What makes VC-Turbo special is how it adapts to your driving style. If you cruise gently on the pedal, it conserves fuel. When you need power to pass somebody who’s slower, it responds well, too. It’s this clever configuration that enables the Rogue to run more efficiently under real-world driving conditions.

The 2025 Toyota RAV4 features, as standard, a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine with 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. It has an 8-speed automatic transmission.

If most of your driving is on highways, the Rogue’s acceleration and real-time feel confer advantages to daily life in El Paso and elsewhere.

Tech and Entertainment

Both the Rogue and RAV4 are equipped with numerous technologies to keep you connected, entertained, and worry-free.

The Rogue comes equipped with an 8-inch touchscreen, as standard with the NissanConnect® system. Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ are wireless and included from the base trim level. You’ll also find wireless phone charging, voice command, cloud-based navigation, and bigger touchscreens in upper trims.

The interface is user-friendly, even while you’re driving. It is smooth in every aspect, and the design is uncluttered. You don’t have to search around to find what you require.

The RAV4 also comes standard with Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and Bluetooth®. The base screen size is 7 inches, while the upper trims get an upgrade of a 9-inch display. Wireless charging and premium sound systems are also available – but, once more, primarily on higher-priced vehicles, similar to the Rogue.

From a usability perspective, the Rogue’s interface is more user-friendly and easy to use on a daily basis.

Safety Features

In terms of safety, both SUVs score high. The 2025 Nissan Rogue features Nissan Safety Shield® 360 standard on every vehicle. It packages all the must-haves: blind spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, and more.

You can also opt for ProPILOT Assist, which includes lane-centering and adaptive cruise control, making long drives down the highway significantly less stressful. It’s like having your own personal co-pilot who adjusts your acceleration and keeps you in your lane.

The RAV4 has Toyota Safety Sense™, which offers many of the same features like cruise control, lane assist, and pre-collision alert.

Charlie Clark Nissan El Paso’s Bottom Line

El Paso, TX, is all about long drives under the sun, wide open spaces, and plenty of family outings. The 2025 Nissan Rogue is ideal specifically for this kind of lifestyle.
