I noticed that the gas filler door on my 2023 Rogue appears to be some type of plastic. I started checking and found that the hood, front fenders, doors and rear liftgate are all non-ferrous. Can someone tell me what are they made of?

Nissan says the hood and doors of the 3rd generation Rogues are stamped from aluminum alloy, reducing vehicle weight and helping to improve fuel efficiency and power performance.

Nissan Rogue makes greater use of AHSS, aluminum body panels to reduce mass

The front fenders appear to be non-ferrous as well, though though a magnet will stick to the rear fenders and roof. The screws used to connect the door latches are magnetic, I hope they used an alloy compatible with aluminum.

I did notice that the hood seemed kind of light when I lifted it up to check the oil.
