2021 Nissan Rogue

2021 Nissan Rogue

The 2021 Nissan Rogue has recently been unveiled! It has been expertly redesigned and reengineered to make family life easier. The Rogue is Nissan’s best selling model in the industry’s largest segment. Here at Fort Collins Nissan, we are so excited about the new design and can’t wait to bring it to you! The new 2021 Rogue is one of five new or redesigned vehicles entering production over the next year. This first look at it proves that Nissan has some very exciting things in the pipeline!

The Rogue was designed with families in mind.  “The all-new Rogue was purposefully designed to meet all of the needs of today’s young families,” said Mike Colleran, senior vice president, Nissan U.S. Marketing and Sales. “Rogue is playing to win in the midsize crossover game with the ideal mix of expressive design, advanced technology, safety, comfort and versatility.” The Rogue will deliver functionality, flexibility, technology and safety, all aimed at making life easier.

The Rogue “Family Hub”

2021 Nissan Rogue

Inside, the 2021 Nissan Rogue is a “family hub,” providing comfort and utility to both the front and rear passengers. All four doors now work with the Nissan Intelligent Key. When the key is in proximity to the vehicle, the driver or passengers can now lock or unlock any door using the press button on the handle.

The rear doors are now wider and open to almost 90 degrees, making car seat install or removal much easier. This also provides less cumbersome entry and exit for all passengers, whether the be two legged or four! Car seat installation is a breeze, with the added flexibility of install in all 3 rear seating positions. Anyone who has ever had a car seat and two additional adult or older children passengers understands how great it will be to have a center positioned car seat.

NASA inspired zero gravity seats and available heated back seats offer added comfort for rear passengers. Pull up shades block intense sun for rear passengers. They’ll also be able to control their climate separately from the driver and front passenger with Tri-Zone Climate Control!

The center console opens “butterfly” style, allowing both front and rear passengers to easily access what’s inside. Remote start with Intelligent Climate Control is available, allowing drivers to set the perfect temperature before getting inside. This is especially beneficial when traveling with small children or pets!

Large cargo space with new organization compartments make hauling whatever you need a breeze! Whether you’re getting ready for your next family camping trip, or simply running to the grocery store, the new Rogue is ready to haul it all

Safety First

2021 Rogue Safety

This new Rogue is the latest Nissan model to offer Safety Shield 360, providing the most standard safety technologies in its class. Safety Shield 360 includes Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, High Beam Assist and Rear Automatic Braking. The all-new Rogue also offers 10 standard supplemental air bags. Extended crumple zones help protect the precious cargo inside.

Additionally, the 2021 Nissan Rogue now comes standard with Intelligent Driver Alertness technologies. Models equipped with ProPILOT Assist, a hands-on driver assist technology, feature Intelligent Cruise Control. Other available safety features include Blind Spot Intervention and Traffic Sign Recognition, which will reset cruise control speed based on the signs posted. ProPILOT Assist makes long drives on the open highway less tiresome. It also reduces the hassle of stop and go traffic. Steering assistance is combined Intelligent Cruise Control to automatically accelerate and brake in order to keep a steady pace behind the car ahead of you.

ProPILOT Assist is enhanced with next generation radar and camera technologies. ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link introduces several new features. By linking to the vehicle’s navigation, map data can help proactively reduce speed for upcoming curves, junctions or exits.

Connected Technologies

2021 Rogue Tech

The 2021 Nissan Rogue now offers available wireless Apple CarPlay and allows the driver to initiate the system without removing their phone from their pocket or purse, allowing for a seamless transfer of music from phone to vehicle. Android Auto is also available. You’ll still get the USB charging ports, but the Rogue now also offers a wireless smartphone charger under the center console.

Another new addition is the 10.8 inch heads up display. This new display allows the driver to access a range of information without taking their eyes off the road. The instrument panel features an available advanced digital meter display. It is fully customizable for personalized appearance and information display. The third digital screen is a 9 inch floating touchscreen for navigation, audio display, climate control, RearView Monitor and Intelligent Around View Monitor.

Voice commands control both Google Maps and Waze. The driver can seamlessly switch between apps to access their preferred view of route and driving conditions.

Commanding Design

2021 Rogue Design

Every design aspect of the Rogue reflects the spirit if the vehicle – fun, versatile and adventurous. It features the newest signature Nissan design elements, such as the floating roof and a new V-motion grille. The unique multi-level LED headlights with expanded illumination are standard on all trim levels. LED fog lights are standing on the SL and Platinum trim levels.

The body measures 1.5 inches shorter and 0.2 inches lower than the previous model year. This change enhances the aggressive look, while increasing maneuverability. A wide range of color combinations will be available, including five two-tone combinations, a Rogue first.

The design inside is equally impressive. All of the Family Hub features mentioned above make the interior as practical as it is beautiful. The quilted semi-aniline leather seats standard on the Platinum offer a look of luxury. The newly designed electronic shifter reduces the need for mechanical equipment beneath the console, allowing for additional storage space and a unique floating design.

Premium Driving Experience

Rogue Driving

While we look forward to all of the exiting features above, an important part of considering any new vehicle will always be driving experience.

On top of the improved MPG and overall performance, the 2021 Nissan Rogue features a new Vehicle Motion Control system. “This is technology that does what a human can’t,” said Chris Reed, senior vice president, Research and Development, Nissan Technical Center North America. “The all-new Vehicle Motion Control predicts what the driver is trying to do to do by monitoring steering, acceleration and braking. It can then step in and help to smooth things out.”

Vehicle Motion Control works with the Intelligent AWD system and Drive Mode Selector to provide individual wheel control. It can even apply a single brake when necessary to smooth out sharp corners.

The Rogue with AWD features 5 different drive modes – Off-road, Snow, Standard, Eco and Sport. The Vehicle Motion Control system is particularly useful when driving on snowy slopes, deep snow, and off-road conditions. This makes the Rogue better than ever before for adventurous Colorado drivers!

Every 2021 Rogue features a standard 2.5-liter DOHC inline 4-cylinder engine with Nissan’s Direct Injection Gasoline system. Horsepower comes in at 181 with 181 lb-ft of torque.

Do you need new tires? Are you unsure? There is an extremely simple way to check your tire tread depth at home with no special tools! All you need is a quarter and a penny to get started.

Before using the coin, you check your tires for the “wear indicators” as seen in the video above. Look for these rubber notches between the tread of your tires. They are raised to indicate tire tread depth of 2/32 of an inch. At this point, your tires are completely worn to an unsafe level. Once the indicator is flush with the tread, that means it’s time to replace your tires right away. If your tires do not have these indicators, or if you want to be proactive and get an idea of how much tread you have left before it’s too late, it’s time to use your coins.

Using Coins to Check Tire Tread Depth

First, grab your quarter. Insert it in the space between your tire tread, with George Washington’s head facing down. If your tread surpasses the top his head, you are above 4/32 of an inch and are in good shape. Once the tread comes flush with the top of Washington’s head, that means you are at 4/32 of an inch. While still safe, it’s time to start planning ahead. Depending on how much you drive and on what terrain, you’ll need to replace your tires soon.

If you find that your tread is not even touching Washington’s head, you can grab your penny. Insert the penny in the same way, with Lincoln’s head facing down. When your tread is flush with the top of Lincoln’s head that means you are at 2/32 of an inch. As with the wear indicator, this means it’s time to replace your tires. Regardless of season, low tread is unsafe, reducing traction, increasing stopping distance and increasing chances of getting a flat.

Other Considerations

Make sure you check your tread on all four tires and in more than one spot. If you find that the center of your tires is wearing more than the outer edges, your tire is likely over inflated. On the other hand, if the edges are wearing more quickly than the center, your tires are likely under inflated. When certain tires are wear more quickly than others, you might need a tire rotation or alignment. In this case, we’d be happy to help you figure out what needs done to ensure even wear to not only increase the lifespan of your tires, but also keep you driving safely!

If you do need new tires, take advantage of our $70 rebate on a set of four eligible tires though July 31, 2020! Start shopping new tires here.

It’s the spookiest time of the year! Tynan’s Nissan Fort Collins wants to wish our customers near Fort Collins, Greeley, Longmont, Loveland, CO; and Cheyenne, WY a Happy Halloween! There’s no bad way to celebrate the holiday, so whether you’re trick-or-treating with the kids, staying in to watch some scary movies, or dressing up for a Halloween party, we hope you have a scary-good time!

Happy Halloween from your friends at Tynan’s Nissan Fort Collins! Lucky those of us living near Fort Collins, Greeley, Longmont, Loveland, CO; and Cheyenne, WY, we don’t have to travel very far to experience some of the scariest places in the country! In order to celebrate Halloweekend, we’ve put together a special haunted road trip for our customers – Colorado Edition! Hop in your New Nissan Vehicle and prepare for some scares!

It wouldn’t be a Colorado haunted road trip if we didn’t start at the infamous Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, CO. The hotel became famous after Stephen King released his classic horror novel, “The Shining” in 1977. The book was inspired by his stay at the hotel.

Next up is the Fitzsimons Army Hospital in Aurora, CO. Although it closed back in 1999, the angry spirits have not gotten the message. There have been many reports of unexplainable noises and many have claimed to see deceased military roaming around.

Afterward, head over to Cheesman Park in Denver, CO, which was built on top of an old cemetery. Need we say more? If you’re really brave, save this one for when it gets dark. If you dare.

You’ve survived the worst of it! Now it’s time for a nice meal at the Meeker Hotel and Cafe in Meeker, CO. If you’d like to add some guests to your dining party, we suggest Charlie Dunbar and Painted Lady? Charlie, the original owner who was killed during a gunfight, is said to lead women down long staircases, while the Painted Lady manages to wake guests up in the night with her strong perfume.

Earlier this month, we told you about the massive deal between Nissan and Mitsubishi that is waiting to be approved. The deal, in which Nissan would purchase 34% equity stake in Mitsubishi for 237 billion yen, would catapult Renault-Nissan to the world’s third-largest automotive group. We’re happy to announce that the deal has finally been approved!

This five-year alliance will bring multiple “synergies” or commonalities between the two brands, most importantly, common vehicle platforms and technology sharing.

“The combination of Nissan, Mitsubishi Motors and Renault will create a new force in global car-making,” said Ghosn. “It will be one of the world’s three largest automotive groups, with the economies of scale, breakthrough technologies and manufacturing capabilities to produce vehicles to serve customer demand in every market segment and in every geographic market around the world.”

Congratulations to Nissan on a successful acquisition!

While we are lucky enough to live in an area that is not impacted by hurricanes, many people in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia are still dealing with the devastating impact of Hurricane Matthew. Although they are lucky to have survived, many individuals and business owners have suffered damaged vehicles or a total loss because of the storm.

Nissan is helping victims get their lives back to normal by offering employee-pricing on most Nissan vehicles. Victims in the affected areas can work with their local Nissan dealership now through the end of the month to take advantage of this opportunity, which includes additional incentives and even a deferred payment plan* for qualified customers.

We are proud to work for such a generous and caring company!

*NMAC deferred payment plan does not apply to leases; interest accrues on any deferred payments; offer applies to 60-month new contracts, except for Altima and Rogue, for which 72 month terms are applicable.

Imagine never paying for gas again. Yes, we’re serious. The Nissan LEAF, which is 100% electric and 100% fun, could make that dream a reality, but we know you’re probably skeptical. And you probably have a lot of questions. How long will a charge last? How long will it take to charge? Where are the charging stations? The Nissan LEAF offers a range of up to 107 miles*, and when you purchase one from Tynan’s Nissan Fort Collins, you’ll get two years of complimentary 30-minute fast charges at participating No Charge to Charge stations. And with the largest national metro-area fast-charging network, trust us, that’s a lot. To see where the closest charging stations are to you, visit https://www.plugshare.com/, then stop by and see us for a test drive!

As you may have already heard earlier this year, Nissan and Mitsubishi entered into a strategic partnership together. Since then, we have heard very little details on what that means for both car brands. However, recently Renault-Nissan CEO, Carlos Ghosn, confirmed that they were going to announce a “massive’ business plan very shortly.

“This is not a deal where we say, ‘OK, we made the deal, now let’s think what we can do together,” [Ghosn] told reporters [at the Paris Motor Show]. “No. The day we announce the deal, we’re going to tell you exactly what we’re going to do together. And it’s massive. It’s massive between Mitsubishi and Nissan. And also, it may be very significant between Renault and Mitsubishi.”

Very little details have been released so far, but we do know that the plan will include details regarding how Nissan and Mitsubishi will grow the U.S. market and expand the electric vehicle technology. “We will have to dig more in the U.S.,” Ghosn said. “But when you talk about purchasing, engineering, platforms, engines, plug-in hybrids — it’s massive.”

As of right now, Nissan and Mitsubishi are still waiting for the deal to be approved by the government. It is expected to be approved by the end of the year. Keep checking back on the Tynan’s Nissan Fort Collins blog for updates!
