'On behalf of all of our Nissan families, it's an honor to receive this award from Parents and Edmunds.com for the all-new 2014 Rogue,' said Fred Diaz, senior vice president, Nissan Sales & Marketing and Operations. 'With its combination of innovative features and a strong value equation, the Rogue allows families to ride in comfort and style without burning a hole in the pocket book.'

The Nissan Rogue, which was completely redesigned for the 2014 model year, features bold, emotive styling, a premium interior created with comfort and multi-tasking in mind, and an array of available affordable technologies. Rogue offers optional 3-row/7-passenger seating, along with exceptional passenger and cargo flexibility.
