The third-generation 2021 Nissan Rogue / X-Trail SUV has been spotted once again undergoing testing in the United States.
Our photographers snapped three prototypes featuring less camouflage than before, thus giving us a better look at the new SUV. As we anticipated the last time we saw it, the 2021 Nissan Rogue features split headlights that give it a similar face to the all-new Juke.
The redesigned front also features the brand’s V-Motion grille that reaches deeper towards the bumper, and a horizontal lower grille. Seen from the side, the all-new Nissan Rogue looks like a more dynamic evolution of the current model thanks to the belt line that rises towards the rear, but also the gently sloping roofline.

The rear end brings significant updates as well, with the 2021 Rogue adopting new horizontal LED taillights and a bigger roof spoiler that embraces the rear screen on each side.
The interior shots are the same from the previous set, revealing a sizable infotainment touchscreen display at the top of the center console and a fully-digital instrument panel. On the center tunnel, we can also spot a thick electronic shifter and a Terrain Selection dial to navigate through the different off-road settings. Its dashboard clearly looks cleaner and more high-tech than that of the current Rogue.
For now, we don’t know whether the new-generation model will gain a new engine or will carry on with the existing 170 HP 2.5-liter four-cylinder unit. However, a CVT gearbox looks like a safe bet. Expect a significant safety tech update as well when the all-new Rogue debuts some time next year.
