Toyota has made only one change to the RAV4 for the 2021 model year: Blizzard Pearl replaces Super White on the color palette. A plug-in hybrid RAV4 Prime joins the lineup, and the hybrid model gets a new XLE Premium trim; we review the two hybrid models separately.

Pros
Truckish good looks,
car-like road manners,
driver-assistance features are standard.

Cons
Spartan entry-level model,
engine moans and groans,
top trims can be pricey.

By:

No significant changes for 2021.

Pros
Quiet interior and comfortable ride quality
Abundant cargo and passenger space
Easy-to-use controls

Cons
Lackluster power from powertrain
Uncomfortable front passenger seat
Vague steering

The 2021 Nissan Rogue Sport's #11 ranking is based on its score within the Subcompact SUVs category. Currently the Nissan Rogue Sport has a score of 7.1 out of 10, which is based on our evaluation of 28 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Ample cargo room
Numerous standard driver assistance features

Cons
High base price for class
Weak and unrefined powertrain
Tight second-row legroom
Mixed interior quality

This year is expected to the be the last before a major redesign for the Rogue Sport, so Nissan has made only slight adjustments to the lineup for 2021. The base S trim gains standard 17-inch aluminum wheels while the mid-range SV receives heated front seats, a remote start system, a heated steering wheel, fog lamps, and a leather-wrapped shift knob.

Pros
Compliant ride,
spacious cabin,
fuel efficient engine.

Cons
Poky acceleration,
low-tech infotainment system,
lacks towing capacity.

By:

For 2021 Base S trim comes with 17-inch wheels, Heated front seats and steering wheel, foglights and more now standard on SV.

Pros
Cargo space is impressive for the class
Small size means good maneuverability in tight city spaces
Lots of available driving aids and tech

Cons
Engine is underpowered and noisy
Bumpy ride when equipped with optional 19-inch wheels
Front seats aren't comfortable on long trips
