While you might be dropping off the kids at football practice, you’ll still want some extra power in the engine. Both the RAV4 and the Rogue have 2.5L 4-cylinder engines under their hoods, but the RAV4 offers a bit more oomph, producing 203 horsepower. The Rogue lags behind, achieving just 181 horsepower.
Additionally, the 2022 Toyota RAV4 offers six hybrid trims to help drivers charge towards an eco-friendly future. These hybrid SUVs are great for errands, taking the kids to and from school, or driving long stretches of highway – all on a single tank of gas.
If you’d like to hitch up a boat or trailer for your next family vacation, then the 2022 RAV4 is your ride. With a maximum towing capacity up to 3,500 pounds when properly equipped, you won’t have to leave anything behind. Unfortunately, the Rogue falls short here, with a maximum towing capacity of 1,350 pounds.
The Toyota RAV4 and the Nissan Rogue both offer cabins made of high-quality, soft-touch materials. Still, what you’re most likely more concerned about is how much space each vehicle offers.
Take a look at the chart to compare the RAV4 and the Rogue’s interior dimensions:

Based on their measurements, both the RAV4 and the Rogue offer ample space for the driver, co-pilot, and back-seat passengers. You’ll have abundant room to be the carpool parent for weekend soccer games or hauling all the fishing equipment, tents, and sleeping bags for your camping trip.
The 2022 Toyota RAV4 and the 2021 Nissan Rogue offer ample cargo space to carry any items you may need. In fact, both SUVs have available cargo accessories to make loading up your supplies even easier. They are:
- All-weather floor liners
- Carpet floor mats
- Cargo tote
- Cargo net
However, the 2022 RAV4 has an optional universal tablet holder, an unavailable accessory for the 2021 Rogue.
Before you embark on your next road trip or morning commute, don’t forget to sync your smartphone to your RAV4 or Rogue. Whether you pair your phone by USB, auxiliary, or Bluetooth® wireless technology, you’ll be able to stream your music or favorite podcast via the Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration features.
However, if you’d prefer to feel like you’re standing in the front row at your favorite artist’s concert, you can opt for the 11-speaker JBL® sound system in the 2022 RAV4. The 2021 Rogue offers a Bose® Premium Audio System, but it falls short by supplying only 10 speakers. For a more immersive listening experience, the RAV4 is built for every jam session.
