 Why choose a model with AWD? AWD, or all-wheel drive, helps improve traction and handling in rough The Woodlands road conditions. The new Nissan Rogue, and all of its trim levels, is available with all-wheel drive. This Intelligent AWD system automatically adjusts traction as needed if it senses a loss in grip.

How Does Nissan Intelligent AWD Work?

This state-of-the-art drivetrain distributes power as needed to maximize traction. The new Nissan Rogue Intelligent AWD system adds more peace of mind and stability to your Spring drives. The Rogue starts off in AWD mode to enhance grip until the model gets up to speed. Then the Rogue conserves power, redirecting the torque to the front wheels to improve efficiency. If there are any slips, the Intelligent AWD system redistributes the power to the wheels needed to maintain control.

Nissan Rogue AWD Configurations

The Nissan Rogue offers Intelligent AWD throughout the lineup with models, including: 

  • Rogue S AWD
  • Rogue SV AWD
  • Rogue SL AWD
  • Rogue Platinum AWD

Nissan Rogue AWD Lock Button

What is the Nissan Rogue AWD Lock Button? This is a unique feature that provides a low-speed regulator button that can lock all four wheels for better traction in snow or when off-roading near Conroe. The way it works is that the system splits the power between the front and rear wheels for better control.

AWD Error on Nissan Rogue

Notice an AWD error on the Nissan Rogue? This could indicate a range of issues that all would require a service appointment with our Nissan service center. See what each Nissan Rogue AWD error light message means below:

  • Illuminated Without Blinking: There’s a malfunction in the AWD system. Schedule time for service at a local service center.
  • Blinking Rapidly: The powertrain oil temperature is rising exponentially out of range. Pull your vehicle over and put your car in park to idle your engine and allow it to cool down. If the blinking stops after a while, you can resume driving. If not, you should call a local service center. 
  • Blinking Slowly: There’s a large difference between the diameters of the front and rear wheels. Pull your vehicle over and allow the car to idle in park. The blinking may stop after a while and you can resume driving. If it doesn’t, you should contact a local service center. 

If you see the AWD error on the Nissan Rogue, make sure you schedule maintenance with your local Nissan dealer. Even if the light turns off, it’s worth having the professionals take a look in the event something is wrong with the system.
