2022 Volkswagen Taos vs. Nissan Rogue

The new 2022 Volkswagen Taos is the stylish, fun, and versatile choice for all of your commutes and errand runs. While the Nissan Rogue has been a popular option for some time, even the 2021 model doesn’t match the same level of excitement that the new Taos does. Check out why the Taos is now the superior SUV in this Rogue and Taos comparison.

Better for your wallet

The 2022 Taos is the more affordable option for a few key reasons. When comparing the trim levels of the Taos to those of the Rogue, the Taos trims all have lower starting prices. Whether you choose the base S trim or the premium SEL trim of the Taos, you won’t have to break your budget to get the features you want.

The Taos also is more efficient than the Rogue, getting an EPA-estimated 28 mpg in the city and 36 mpg on the highway.* This means trips to the gas station are fewer and farther between. In addition, the VW provides some better warranties than the Nissan, so you won’t have to pay for certain repairs. For instance, its New Vehicle Limited Warranty lasts for four years or 50,000 miles, while the Nissan only has basic coverage for 36 months or 36,000 miles.

More enjoyable rides

Even with the cost savings it offers, the Taos still makes for a better driving experience than the Rogue. The Taos comes with a 1.5-liter engine that delivers 158 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque — more than the Rogue engine produces. And the Taos has a smaller build, with a length of 175.8 inches and a height of 64.4 inches. This means you can expect easier handling, better acceleration, and a greater feel of power in the Taos.

To make the most of each commute without paying a fortune, choose the 2022 Taos for your next daily driver. Check out the SUV at Lewisville Volkswagen in Lewisville, Texas.
