Nissan is introducing a vehicle at the Detroit Auto Show in January, the Rogue. On a busy news day, this wouldn't be news. Lots of automakers introduce lots of vehicles at lots of auto shows. Since it's a slow news day, it's set the blogosphere off in wild speculation. We called Nissan, and all they would confirm is the name and that there would be more details coming. They also sent us this nifty sketch.
To us, the name "Rogue" only conjures up the sound of Patrick Stewart chiding Anna Paquin in "X-Men," but for others, it means more. Much, much more.
Automotive News says the vehicle will be a crossover, one of many in a rapidly expanding segment. They went on to say the Rogue will be smaller than the Nissan Murano and will likely be powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine.
If the Rogue is a production vehicle, expect it to be a 2008 model.
