Where each one leads
Honda CR-V
- Against cars of the same year, the Honda CR-V comes out better in New York safety inspections (fails 25% less often than average) than the Nissan Rogue (fails 14% more often than average).
Nissan Rogue
- On Canada's official test the most frugal 2026 Nissan Rogue uses 7.4 l/100 km, the 2026 Honda CR-V 7.8.
Too close to call: NHTSA overall safety rating.
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
