2022 Nissan Rogue Sport vs Subaru Crosstrek Safety Features
We won’t mince words—the safety features on the Subaru Crosstrek are abysmal. The standard suite offers only one feature, a rearview camera. On the Subaru, collision warning, emergency braking, blind spot monitoring, and rear seat alert cost extra. Features like rear parking sensors, pedestrian detection, and reverse automatic braking are standard on the Nissan but completely missing on the Subaru lineup.
In sharp contrast, the 2022 Nissan Rogue Sport makes safety a top priority. The standard advanced safety suite includes 11 features. Available for upgrades are surround-view parking camera, ProPilot Assist (to automatically steer, accelerate, and brank in semi-autonomous mode), and road sign recognition—none of which are even available on the Subaru model.

2022 Nissan Rogue Sport vs Subaru Crosstrek Interior
On features alone, these two small SUVs have similar interiors. However, there are some differences in overall feel and quality as well as functionality.
The Nissan Rogue Sport has a larger cargo space and flatter cargo floor, making it a more practical pick for many divers. The Nissan driver’s seat is also elevated for a more commanding view of the road ahead. For those picky about quality, the Rogue Sport interior far surpasses the low-rent materials and hard plastics that continue to dominate the Crosstrek’s cabin even in expensive trim upgrades.

The Subaru Crosstrek styles itself as an off-roading subcompact with roof rails and more rugged trimmings, while the Nissan Rogue Sport opts for a sleek, modern city-like sport look. Apart from these concerns, the exteriors are mainly a matter of taste.
