Hello all,

recently moved into a 2019 Rogue SL AWD Hybrid, so far the car is great but lack of power from stand still bugs me every day. I always have to manually switch to SPORTS.... is there a hack or easy way to keep it on SPORTS all the time? I tried duct tape... no luck

The Rogue has always received criticism for it's lack of power (which is common for most CUV's). The entire point of the Hybrid model is to provide better fuel economy vs the standard model. Hacking the system to get more "power" defeats the entire point of having a hybrid vehicle.

The short answer to your question is no. You also should ask if doing this hack could possibly cause unforeseen problems or permanent damage.

Um... you got the wrong model my man. You choose the Hybrid to have a gas sipper. If you choose the regular Rogue, then you can hack it to have sport mode on, but do it at your own risk. Plus the hybrid has +5 more HP than the standard Rogue, so be happy you got a hybrid that has +5 more HP than the regular one.
