'21 Silver/Charcoal SV purchased 12/2021
'22 Silver/Charcoal SV purchased yesterday 2/23/22

No difference in ride or steering

The '22 gives up the surround view camera and the front cam function for parking.

I like the '22 brake pedal a bit better, it is a bit firmer.

22 lane departure is different with 3 pulses rather than the continuous pulse of '21. I like '21 better.

Cold start up: the 1.5 3cyl turbo '22 is noisier. No significant difference once warm or on the roll.

Eventually, I'm going to have my wife drive me around with a blind fold on and see if I can tell which is which.

In reverse with low revs, 1.5T has more vibrations

The initial throttle tip in is snappier on the 2.5L.
I'm currently granny driving with only 60 miles on the '22 but when both are granny driven the, 21 seems more responsive at the initial throttle tip in.
The 3cyl 1.5T needs more revs to match the low end snap of 4cyl 2.5. Otherwise, they seem very similar.

3cyl seems to be getting 2-3 mpg more but it's way too early to tell.

It's also way too early to tell if I can appreciate the 0.5 seconds quicker to 60 with the 1.5T.
I predict that if the 1.5T is driven to beat the 2.5, one can kiss those extra MPGs goodbye.

Time will tell which one I decide to keep when my 2024 Silverado EV arrives Summer 2024. It may boil down to presumably better MPG for the '22 vs Surround View camera for the '21 as a deciding factor. Other factors will manifest themselves in time. I don’t think the 1.5 is a game changer. Great but so is the 2.5

So the base SV trim on the 22 losses the 360 camera?

Yes. 360 is no longer on base SV. I don’t know if the premium pkg has it or you need to move up to SL. It’s an incredible feature only Rogue had for this class vehicle and not even the base MDX at $50k has it.

Having it on the base SV is a game changer. I was really hoping on getting a base SV (a beater/daily for me if I ever have to commute to work) after learning it came without the premium package. For the 2nd gens, you need to get the premium package for the 360. Now, I have a grip with Honda. Only the fully loaded Advance package trim level in Acura gets this feature, and everything else, well its good luck and wing it when parking head in.

After looking at several 2009 to 2014 highlanders with 130-160k miles for $12-17k that felt “old driving” and a couple AWD Venza that drove great, one with stained light cloth seats etc. The straw that broke the camel’s back was a nice looking copper brown on tan (faded passenger seat) leather with only 74k miles. I did an Avis one way rental, drove 2 hours and discovered several rust bubbles in the paint under the hood, inside the doors and something I’ve never seen before: the front subframe/engine cradle looked like a plate of nachos with massive scales of rust. I carried my behind home and decided to spend an extra $13k on a new rogue rather than $17k on some overpriced POS. While I complain about overpriced used cars as a buyer, I am grinning like the Cheshire cat as a seller. Almost 5 years ago, I bought a brand-new 17 Chrysler Pacifica and it was discounted at 9000 off MSRP. It was priced at $32.5 and I got it for $23.5. Nearly 5 years and 60,000 miles later, Carmax gave me $23,000 for it. Similarly, I bought an 2013 X5 off of my associate at work for $20k 3 years ago and Carvana gave me $17.5 for it. Sold both in December ’21.
So yeah, you’re right “I think I’ll go buy a new car today”. I’m all good until Summer 2024.

If it was a chess match, all I'd say is, "Well played."

Thanks, I won here but the universe will get it's money back some day. The house always wins.
