There’s no question that the Nissan Rogue has been a smashing success for Nissan engineers, and every model year it seems as if the popular crossover outdoes itself. For the 2021 model year, we are looking forward to even more updates, many of which improve the quality of life for those using the 2021 Nissan Rogue as a “family hub.” With loaded and modern tech, standard advanced safety features, and a premium, comfortable interior, the Nissan Rogue looks to be better than ever.

While there are plenty of fantastic vehicles available for purchase here at Hall Nissan Chesapeake, there may not be a more popular model among our customers in and around Chesapeake, VA than the Nissan Rogue. That’s why it is always exciting to receive updates about the future of this SUV, such as the tidbits that leaked in April about what the 2021 model year iteration of the popular crossover might look like.

From the moment iPhones were introduced to the public, automakers began figuring out way to bring their many and varied conveniences into automobiles. Originally, that started off as an auxiliary input to stream music, and then Bluetooth® allowed wireless connectivity for certain infotainment features. Now, there’s Apple CarPlay™, which allows drivers to link up their iPhones to their vehicles in the most practical way yet. In other words, it’s never been easier (or safer) to make use of your smartphone in conjunction with Nissan autos.

Using a child’s car seat in Nissan autos seems like it should be easy enough. Drop the booster into the seat, strap the kid in, and off you go. The reality, though, is that entirely too many parents and caregivers are using their car seats incorrectly, which is why Nissan recently put out a list of tips for people using car seats.

These days, it often seems as though there are more internet automotive publications than any reasonable human being can keep track of, and while it is nice when they all give out their various accolades, the truth is that only a handful of awards from respected publications really matter. J.D. Power & Associates and its Initial Quality Study (IQS) certainly is one of them.

Perhaps ten years ago, the idea of buying an electric vehicle would have been met with eye rolls, in large part because those early EV models were focused first and foremost on fuel efficiency with little regard for performance.

Somewhere along the line, the American car-buying public decided that sedans no longer were their familial car of choice. Instead, the crossover/SUV has slowly taken over the automotive landscape this last decade or so, and with good reason. They are attractive, maneuverable, and utilitarian. However, we here at Hall Nissan Chesapeake contend that the sedan is far from dead, even as competing automakers cull their lineup in favor of SUVs.

By June, many of the nation's college graduates officially have started their adult professional lives, and for a significant number of those people, that may require the purchase of a new automobile. While plenty of college students get along without a car just fine (and the ones that do have vehicles often get by with whatever was cheapest to purchase at age 19), adult professionals can afford something newer and nicer to serve as an extension of their adult selves.

The Nissan Kicks is still the newest edition to the family here at Hall Nissan Chesapeake, but in just a short time, it certainly has made an impressive impact, both on the dealers here and the customers that have proven so eager to test drive and ultimately purchase this sporty little crossover.
