Which Crossover SUV is the Right Fit for Me? The 2018 Nissan Rogue vs. the 2018 Toyota RAV4

When it comes to selecting your next mid-size SUV, there are plenty of options to choose from. With so many options, it can be tough to see what sets them apart. That's why we've put together this comparison of the 2018 Nissan Rogue and the 23018 Toyota RAV4. The 2018 Nissan Rogue is one of the best options available, but some buyers choose to consider the 2018 Toyota RAV4 as well. Here are a few ways the two SUVs differ:

Rogue vs. RAV4 Price

When purchasing a new SUV, price is usually one of the top considerations. Which vehicle gives you the features you want and the price you want? Whether you're looking for a top-of-line model with all the options or just want one with the hands-free motion-activated power liftgate you've been dreaming of, the 2018 Nissan Rogue MSRP is thousands of dollars less than the MSRP for a comparably equipped 2018 Toyota RAV4.

Fuel Efficiency

The purchase price isn't the only difference when it comes to cost--many vehicles save you money on the lot, but lose you money at the pump. The 2018 Nissan Rogue gets up to 33 MPG highway vs the 2018 Toyota RAV4 rating of up to 30 MPG highway. If you prefer all-wheel-drive, the 2018 Nissan Rogue AWD model still gets up to 32 MPG highway, but the all-wheel-drive 2018 Toyota RAV4's fuel economy drops all the way down to 28 MPG highway.

Safety
