First-rate materials line the 2018 Nissan Rogue’s cabin. Even where there are plastic surfaces, they are nicely sculpted and soft to the touch. The styling is modern and sleek, and everything is well-assembled. – US News.com
2018 Rogue Seating and Comfort
The 2018 Nissan Rogue is now a five-seater, as the automaker has removed the cramped third row for good. With this change, the new Rogue is a comfortable vehicle for five that makes good use of its capacious cargo space. The seats are supportive and ample headroom will impress the occupants. The rear seats offer 9 inches of fore and aft adjustment, and the cabin features modern styling.
Inside, the Rogue's cabin is handsome but the base S can feel a little common with its soft-touch plastic and black cloth fabric. Moving up to SV keeps the cloth but adds a power driver’s seat. Rogue SL goes with leather and offers snazzier options.

Moreover, there are a few storage bins below the cargo floor panel. Nissan also offers a unique configurable cargo area, but the power liftgate operates slowly. For interior storage, there are enough options including several small trays and pockets, and average-sized cupholders.
