        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/mr-nissan-rogue-hybrid">The all-new 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid</a> is almost here, and it is the first Rogue ever built around Nissan's e-POWER hybrid system. Nissan expects the launch trim, the SR with Technology Package, to arrive in limited quantities in November 2026, with the rest of the lineup following in January 2027.</p><p>At Raceway Nissan of Freehold, we have been counting down to this one. The 2027 Rogue Hybrid pairs the space and practicality drivers already love about the Rogue with standard Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive, a whisper-quiet cabin, and fuel economy of up to 41 MPG city. Best of all, there is no plug and no charging routine. You simply fill up with gas and go.</p><p>Here is everything you need to know about the 2027 Rogue Hybrid before it rolls onto our lot in Freehold, NJ.</p><h2>A New Kind of Hybrid: How Nissan e-POWER Works</h2><p>The 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid runs on the third generation of Nissan's e-POWER technology, and it works differently from most hybrids you have driven. The wheels are turned entirely by two electric motors. The gasoline engine never drives the wheels directly; instead, it acts as a generator that supplies electricity to the battery and motors.</p><p>That design brings some real advantages on the road:</p><ul><li><b>Instant acceleration.</b> Electric motors deliver torque the moment you press the pedal, so pulling away from a light or merging onto Route 9 feels quick and effortless.</li><li><b>No transmission.</b> With no gears to shift, the drive is smooth and seamless from a stop to highway speed.</li><li><b>A remarkably quiet ride.</b> Because electric motors do the driving, the cabin stays hushed even under hard acceleration.</li><li><b>Standard Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive.</b> Every trim of the 2027 Rogue Hybrid comes with Dual Motor AWD, giving you extra confidence through New Jersey rain, sleet, and snow.</li></ul><p>e-POWER is not an experiment, either. Nissan reports that close to 2 million vehicles equipped with the previous two generations of e-POWER have been sold worldwide since 2016.</p><h2>Nissan Rogue Hybrid Fuel Economy</h2><p>When it comes to Nissan Rogue Hybrid fuel economy, the headline number is up to 41 MPG city on the SR AWD trim. That city rating is where e-POWER shines, since stop-and-go driving is exactly where electric motors are most efficient. For drivers commuting through Freehold, Manalapan, Marlboro, and the rest of Monmouth County, that means fewer stops at the pump.</p><p>Nissan also adds first-in-class Smooth Stop technology. Intelligent brake software and predictive calibration work with the e-POWER system to soften the end of every stop, which makes rush-hour traffic far less jerky for you and your passengers.</p><p>The battery pack is backed by an 8-year/100,000-mile limited battery warranty, whichever comes first, so you can enjoy hybrid efficiency with peace of mind.</p><h2>Inside the 2027 Nissan Rogue Interior</h2><p>The 2027 Nissan Rogue interior is designed to feel like a calm, upscale retreat. Quality touches include LED interior lighting and leatherette-wrapped front door inserts, along with available quilted TailorFit seating and an available Panoramic Moonroof that floods the cabin with natural light.</p><h3>Comfort for every seat</h3><p>The 2027 Rogue interior seats up to five and is built with families in mind:</p><ul><li><b>Five LATCH points</b> for flexible child-seat placement</li><li><b>Two standard rear USB Type-C charge ports</b> to keep passengers' devices powered</li><li><b>Standard heated front seats</b>, with available ventilation for hot summer days at the Jersey Shore</li><li><b>Standard heated TailorFit leatherette-wrapped steering wheel</b></li><li><b>Dual Zone Automatic Temperature Control</b> and an available 4-way power front passenger seat</li><li><b>Available memory driver seat and outside mirrors</b></li></ul><p>When it is time to haul more than people, you get 39 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats.</p><h3>Your command center</h3><p>Dual 12.3-inch displays come standard, and higher trims step up to available dual 14.3-inch screens that blend together for crisp, customizable control of navigation, music, and vehicle information. The available NissanConnect 14.3-inch HD touchscreen includes Google built-in, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are on board as well.</p><p>Other tech highlights in the 2027 Rogue interior include:</p><ul><li><b>Next-generation Qi2 wireless charging</b> with built-in magnets to hold your phone in place and fans to keep it cool for faster charging</li><li><b>Available 10-speaker Bose Premium Audio System</b></li><li><b>Available ambient lighting</b></li><li><b>Available NissanConnect WiFi Hotspot</b></li><li><b>Available 3D HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor</b>, which gives you views from the front, rear, sides, and even underneath the vehicle, plus a rotating 360-degree view for tight parking spots</li></ul><h2>2027 Rogue Hybrid Trims and Pricing</h2><p>The 2027 Rogue Hybrid lineup offers five configurations, all with Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive.</p><ul><li><b>SV – Starting at $35,490 MSRP:</b> Dual 12.3" screens, heated front seats, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Expected January 2027.</li><li><b>SR – Starting at $37,490 MSRP:</b> 19" sport aluminum-alloy wheels, quilted TailorFit seating, and gloss black exterior accents. Expected January 2027.</li><li><b>SV + Premium Package – Starting at $37,590 MSRP:</b> Quilted TailorFit seating, gloss black roof rails, and a Panoramic Moonroof. Expected January 2027.</li><li><b>SR + Technology Package – Starting at $41,490 MSRP:</b> 14.3" HD touchscreen with Google built-in, memory driver seat and mirrors, and the 3D HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor. Expected in limited quantities November 2026.</li><li><b>Platinum – Starting at $43,490 MSRP:</b> Panoramic Moonroof, dual 14.3" displays, and the 3D HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor. Expected January 2027.</li></ul><h2>How the Rogue Hybrid Fits the 2027 Rogue Family</h2><p>The Rogue Hybrid joins a lineup that already gives Rogue shoppers plenty of choice. The gas-powered Rogue continues with its VC-Turbo engine and available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, and the Nissan Rogue Plug-in Hybrid remains available for drivers who want to charge at home and run short trips on electric power.</p><p>The key difference is simple. The Nissan Rogue Plug-in Hybrid is designed to be plugged in, while the 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid never needs to be. If you want hybrid efficiency without changing your routine, the Rogue Hybrid is the one to watch. If you want to drive a Rogue home today, our team can show you the <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/mr-nissan-rogue-phev">2026 Rogue Plug-in Hybrid</a> and current <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/vehicles?new=true&amp;make=Nissan&amp;model=Rogue">Rogue models in stock right now</a>.</p><h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2><h3>How much will the 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid cost?</h3><p>The 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid starts at $35,490 MSRP for the SV trim. Pricing climbs to $37,490 for the SR, $37,590 for the SV with Premium Package, $41,490 for the launch SR with Technology Package, and $43,490 for the top Platinum trim. Contact Raceway Nissan of Freehold for a personalized quote.</p><h3>Will all 2027 Nissan Rogues be hybrid?</h3><p>No. The Rogue Hybrid is a new addition to the lineup, not a replacement. Gas-powered Rogue models with the VC-Turbo engine remain available, as does the Nissan Rogue Plug-in Hybrid, so you can choose the powertrain that fits the way you drive.</p><h3>Is the 2027 Nissan Rogue a plug-in hybrid?</h3><p>The 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid is not a plug-in hybrid. Its gasoline engine generates all the electricity the motors need, so it never needs to be plugged in. Nissan does offer a separate Nissan Rogue Plug-in Hybrid for drivers who want home charging and electric-only driving on short trips.</p><h3>When did the Nissan Rogue Hybrid come out?</h3><p>The all-new 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid launches in November 2026, starting with the SR with Technology Package in limited quantities. The remaining trims are expected in January 2027. It is the first Rogue to use Nissan's e-POWER system, though Nissan previously offered a conventional Rogue Hybrid in the U.S. for the 2017 through 2019 model years.</p><h2>Reserve Your 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid at Raceway Nissan of Freehold</h2><p>With limited quantities of the launch trim expected this November, now is the time to get on the list.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/vehicles?new=true&amp;make=Nissan&amp;model=Frontier&amp;filter=make-Nissan.model-Frontier.year-2026.new-true">The 2026 Nissan Frontier </a>combines V6 power, practical truck capability, modern technology, and a choice of configurations designed for work and everyday driving. For drivers looking for a midsize pickup in Freehold, NJ, the Frontier offers a range of trim levels, cab and bed configurations, and available four-wheel-drive capability.</p><p>Whether you need a truck for hauling equipment, towing a recreational trailer, commuting, or weekend adventures, understanding the 2026 Nissan Frontier specs can help you determine which configuration fits your needs.</p><p>At Raceway Nissan of Freehold, shoppers can explore the Frontier lineup, compare available features, and find a truck suited to their lifestyle.</p><h2>2026 Nissan Frontier Specs and Performance</h2><p>The 2026 Nissan Frontier delivers the performance and utility expected from a midsize pickup, with a standard V6 engine and nine-speed automatic transmission across the lineup. Its combination of power, towing capability, and practical dimensions makes it suitable for daily driving and a range of truck-related tasks.</p><p>The Frontier's powertrain provides consistent output across the S, SV, PRO-X, and PRO-4X trims. Buyers can choose between rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, depending on the trim and configuration. Nissan offers the Frontier in King Cab and Crew Cab configurations, with different bed lengths and seating arrangements depending on the model. This flexibility allows shoppers to prioritize passenger space, cargo capacity, or a combination of both.</p><p>For shoppers comparing midsize pickups, the Frontier's engine specifications, towing ratings, and available off-road equipment are important factors to consider. The right configuration depends on how frequently you tow, how much cargo you carry, and whether your driving involves unpaved roads or challenging terrain.</p><h3>Engine, Horsepower and Torque</h3><p>The 2026 Nissan Frontier is powered by a 3.8-liter V6 engine producing 310 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 281 lb-ft of torque at 4,400 rpm. This naturally aspirated engine is paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, which is designed to deliver smooth shifts and responsive power for everyday driving and truck duties. The standard V6 provides the same advertised horsepower and torque across the primary trim lineup. However, drivetrain, vehicle weight, and equipment can affect towing ratings and fuel economy. Rear-wheel-drive models are available for drivers who primarily travel on paved roads, while four-wheel-drive configurations provide additional traction for certain road and trail conditions.</p><p>For shoppers researching 2026 Nissan Frontier specs, the engine's consistent output makes it easier to compare trims based on features, equipment, and intended use rather than differences in engine horsepower.</p><h3>2026 Nissan Frontier Towing Capacity&nbsp;</h3><p>The 2026 Nissan Frontier offers towing capability of up to 7,040 pounds in properly equipped configurations, making it an option for drivers who need to tow compatible recreational equipment, trailers, or work supplies. Maximum towing capacity varies by cab, drivetrain, trim, and equipment. Buyers should verify the rating for the exact vehicle and ensure that the combined weight of the trailer and cargo remains within the manufacturer's limits.&nbsp;</p><h2>Explore The 2026 Nissan Frontier Trim Levels</h2><p>The 2026 Nissan Frontier trim levels provide different combinations of comfort, technology, styling, and capability. The main Crew Cab trims include the S, SV, PRO-X, and PRO-4X, allowing shoppers to choose a truck based on their priorities and budget. Each trim uses the same 3.8-liter V6 engine and nine-speed automatic transmission, but equipment, drivetrain availability, and standard features differ.</p><p>The S serves as the entry point to the lineup, offering practical equipment for drivers who want a capable truck without prioritizing additional luxury features. The SV adds convenience and technology upgrades that can make everyday driving more comfortable. The PRO-X features sport-oriented styling and equipment, along with rear-wheel drive. Drivers who want a more trail-focused configuration can consider the PRO-4X, which includes four-wheel drive, all-terrain tires, and additional off-road equipment.</p><p>When comparing Frontier trims, shoppers should consider more than the starting MSRP. Cab configuration, bed length, drivetrain, optional packages, and available inventory can all affect the final price and equipment. Reviewing the specifications of each trim can help narrow the selection before visiting Raceway Nissan of Freehold for a closer look.</p><h3>Frontier S and SV</h3><p>The 2026 Nissan Frontier S is designed for shoppers who want a practical midsize pickup with essential truck capabilities. It includes the 3.8-liter V6, nine-speed automatic transmission, and standard driver-assistance features. The S features 16-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, cloth seating, an eight-inch NissanConnect touchscreen, and Apple CarPlay integration. Its straightforward equipment makes it suitable for drivers who prioritize utility and everyday functionality.</p><p>The SV builds on the S with additional comfort and technology features. The SV includes 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, premium cloth seating, a 12.3-inch NissanConnect touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, and wireless Android Auto. Additional available equipment can include heated front seats, heated mirrors, remote engine start, and convenience packages.</p><p>Both trims offer rear-wheel drive in their standard configurations, with equipment and drivetrain availability varying by model. For shoppers comparing the Frontier S vs. SV, the main differences involve interior comfort, infotainment, wheel design, and available convenience features. The SV may appeal to drivers who spend considerable time commuting or traveling with passengers, while the S offers a more straightforward approach to truck ownership.</p><h3>Frontier PRO-X and PRO-4X</h3><p>The 2026 Nissan Frontier PRO-X adds sport-oriented styling and equipment to the lineup. It features 17-inch PRO aluminum-alloy wheels, all-terrain tires, PRO-X embroidered cloth seats, and available premium equipment. The PRO-X is rear-wheel drive, making it a consideration for drivers who want distinctive styling without the four-wheel-drive system.</p><p>The Frontier PRO-4X is designed for drivers who want additional off-road capability. It includes four-wheel drive, all-terrain tires, a two-speed transfer case, and selectable terrain modes. The PRO-4X also features 17-inch PRO aluminum-alloy wheels, PRO-4X embroidered cloth seats, and a range of available convenience and premium packages. The PRO-4X offers 8.6 inches of ground clearance in the listed Crew Cab 4x4 Long Bed configuration, compared with 8.4 inches for the listed PRO-X.</p><p>For shoppers comparing the PRO-X vs. PRO-4X, the key distinction is drivetrain and intended use. The PRO-X combines sport-oriented appearance with rear-wheel drive, while the PRO-4X adds four-wheel-drive hardware and off-road-focused features.</p><h2>The 2026 Nissan Frontier Interior</h2><p>The 2026 Nissan Frontier interior combines practical truck design with technology and comfort features intended for everyday use. Its Crew Cab configuration provides seating for up to five passengers, while the folding rear bench adds flexibility for carrying passengers or storing smaller items. Interior equipment varies by trim, giving shoppers several options for balancing comfort and value.</p><p>The S includes cloth seating, a manually adjustable driver's seat, and an eight-inch NissanConnect touchscreen. The SV adds premium cloth seating, an available power-adjustable driver's seat, and a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen. The PRO-X and PRO-4X add distinctive embroidered seat designs, leather-wrapped steering wheels, and heated front seats. Available leather-appointed seating and other premium features can further enhance the cabin, depending on the selected package.</p><p>Storage is another practical consideration. The Frontier offers cabin storage solutions and a folding rear seat, while available USB connections help occupants keep compatible devices connected. Drivers who regularly commute, transport family members, or spend extended periods behind the wheel may want to compare the seat configurations and technology features in person. Visiting Raceway Nissan of Freehold allows shoppers to explore the available cabins, test the seating positions, and see how the controls and storage areas fit their everyday needs.</p><h3>Interior Comfort and Technology</h3><p>The 2026 Nissan Frontier offers technology features designed to make driving, navigation, and smartphone connectivity more convenient.</p><p>Depending on trim, the NissanConnect infotainment system includes an eight-inch or 12.3-inch touchscreen. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility are available on select trims, allowing compatible smartphones to connect without a cable.</p><p>Additional available technology and comfort features include:</p><ul><li>Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel</li><li>Power-adjustable driver's seat with lumbar support</li><li>Wireless smartphone charging on select configurations</li><li>Available Fender premium audio system with 10 speakers</li><li>Available navigation and connected services</li></ul><h3>Safety and Driver Assistance</h3><p>The 2026 Nissan Frontier includes Nissan Safety Shield 360, a collection of driver-assistance technologies designed to help drivers remain aware of certain conditions around the vehicle.</p><p>Standard safety-related features listed by Nissan include:</p><ul><li>Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection.</li><li>Blind Spot Warning</li><li>Lane Departure Warning</li><li>Rear Automatic Braking</li><li>Rear Cross Traffic Alert</li><li>High Beam Assist</li></ul><h2>Find a 2026 Nissan Frontier for Sale in Freehold, NJ</h2><p>If you're searching for a 2026 Nissan Frontier for sale in Freehold, NJ, Raceway Nissan of Freehold is a local destination to explore Nissan's midsize truck lineup.

        <description><![CDATA[See how Nissan Rogue lease deals in NJ actually work. Raceway Nissan breaks down capitalized cost, money factor, and mileage before you sign.]]></description>
        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p>If you have been searching for <span style="font-family: &quot;Source Sans Pro&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">2026 Nissan Rogue lease deals in NJ</span><span style="font-family: &quot;Source Sans Pro&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">, you have probably noticed that every dealership advertises a different monthly number, and none of them fully explain how they got there. Lease ads are built to grab attention, not to explain themselves, which leaves a lot of shoppers wondering what they are actually agreeing to before they sign anything.</span></p><p>This guide breaks down how a Nissan Rogue lease is actually built, what factors move your monthly payment up or down, and what to ask about before you commit. We will also cover why the Rogue in particular tends to lease well compared to some other SUVs in its class, and what to expect trim by trim.</p><h2>Why the Rogue Is a Popular Lease Choice</h2><p>The Nissan Rogue holds its value well relative to many competitors in the compact SUV segment, and strong resale value is one of the biggest factors that makes a lease attractive in the first place. When a vehicle is expected to be worth more at the end of the lease term, the difference between what you pay upfront and what it is projected to be worth later shrinks, and that gap is a major part of what determines your monthly payment.</p><p>On top of that, Nissan regularly runs manufacturer-backed lease incentives on the Rogue, particularly around new model year launches, which is part of why 2026 Rogue lease offers tend to be more competitive than what you will see on some rival SUVs. That combination of strong resale value and manufacturer support is why Rogue lease deals in Freehold and across Monmouth County are genuinely worth a close look right now.</p><h2>How a Lease Payment Is Actually Built</h2><p>A lease payment is not just "the price of the car divided by the months you drive it." A few specific factors go into the number you see advertised, and understanding them helps you compare offers accurately instead of just comparing headline numbers.</p><p><strong>Capitalized cost.</strong> This is essentially the negotiated price of the vehicle for lease purposes, similar to the purchase price in a traditional car loan. Just like buying, this number can be negotiated, and it is one of the biggest levers you have to lower your payment.</p><p><strong>Residual value.</strong> This is what the leasing company projects the Rogue will be worth at the end of your lease term. A higher residual value generally means a lower monthly payment, because you are only financing the difference between what the car costs now and what it is expected to be worth later. This is exactly why the Rogue's strong resale reputation works in your favor on a lease.</p><p><strong>Money factor.</strong> This is essentially the interest rate on a lease, just expressed differently. Nissan often subsidizes the money factor as part of a lease special, which is one of the main reasons manufacturer lease deals can beat what you would get financing the same vehicle through a bank.</p><p><strong>Mileage allowance.</strong> Most leases are offered at a few different annual mileage caps, commonly in the range of 10,000, 12,000, or 15,000 miles per year. A lower mileage allowance generally lowers your monthly payment, but going over your limit at lease-end triggers a per-mile overage charge, so it is worth being honest about your actual driving habits rather than picking the cheapest option by default.</p><p><strong>Money due at signing.</strong> This is the upfront amount, sometimes called a down payment or drive-off amount, and it directly affects the advertised monthly number. A lease ad with a very low monthly payment often has a larger amount due at signing, so it is important to compare the total cost, not just the monthly figure in isolation.</p><h2>What's Typically Included (and What Isn't)</h2><p>A lease payment generally covers the depreciation of the vehicle over your lease term, plus interest in the form of the money factor, plus applicable taxes and fees depending on how your state and dealership structure the deal. It does not typically include routine maintenance, insurance, or excess wear and tear charges at lease-end, so it is worth asking directly what is and is not covered before you sign.</p><p>Because exact lease pricing on the 2026 Rogue changes monthly based on current manufacturer incentives, credit tier, and available inventory, we are intentionally not listing specific dollar figures in this post since they would likely be outdated quickly. For accurate, current Rogue lease pricing, the most reliable path is to check our <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/mr-nissan-rogue">current Rogue offers</a> or our <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/newvehiclespecials">new vehicle specials</a>, or simply give our sales team a call so we can walk you through the exact numbers for your credit profile and trim preference. If your credit needs a little work before you lock in the best possible rate, our <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/blog/how-to-get-your-credit-healthy-and-drive-off-in-your-dream-car">guide to getting credit-ready</a> is a good place to start.</p><h2>Rogue Trim Levels at a Glance</h2><p>Nissan typically structures the Rogue lineup across a handful of trims, and your trim choice is one of the biggest factors in your final lease payment, since capitalized cost scales with trim level and options. You can browse the full <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-rogue-freehold-nj">2026 Rogue model overview</a> for a closer look at what each trim includes.</p><ul>
<li><strong>S trim:</strong> The base trim in the lineup, well-equipped with Nissan's core safety technology and a straightforward feature set, and typically the lowest lease payment in the range.</li>
<li><strong>SV trim:</strong> A step up in comfort and technology, often the sweet spot for shoppers who want more features without jumping to the top of the lineup.</li>
<li><strong>SL trim:</strong> Adds a more premium interior, additional driver convenience features, and a more upscale feel throughout the cabin.</li>
<li><strong>Platinum trim:</strong> The top of the Rogue lineup, typically bundling the most complete feature set Nissan offers on this model.</li>
</ul><p>Because trim availability and standard features can shift, we recommend confirming the current trim walk with our sales team, especially if a specific feature is a must-have for you.</p><h2>Lease vs. Buy: Which Makes Sense for You</h2><p>Leasing is not automatically the right move for everyone, so it is worth being honest about how you actually drive and how long you tend to keep a vehicle. We put together a full <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/lease-vs-buy-new-nissan-freehold-nj">lease vs. buy breakdown</a> if you want to go deeper than the summary below.</p><p>Leasing tends to make sense if you like driving a newer vehicle every few years, you do not drive significantly more than the average mileage allowance, and you would rather have a predictable, typically lower monthly payment than build ownership equity over time. It is also a common choice for anyone who wants the latest Rogue safety technology and infotainment features without committing to owning the vehicle long-term.</p><p>Buying tends to make more sense if you drive high annual mileage, you plan to keep the vehicle for many years past a typical loan term, or you simply prefer owning the vehicle outright with no mileage restrictions or wear-and-tear considerations at the end. If buying ends up being the better fit, our <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/used-vehicles">certified pre-owned and used inventory</a> is worth a look as well, since a lightly used Rogue can offer a lot of the same experience at a lower overall cost.</p><h2>Local Rogue Inventory in Freehold, NJ</h2><p>One advantage of shopping at Raceway Nissan right now is inventory depth. Having a strong supply of Rogues on the lot generally gives our team more flexibility to structure a lease deal that fits your budget, since we are not limited to one or two configurations. Whether you are looking for a specific trim, a particular color, or a certain package, having more vehicles on the lot to work with usually means more room to negotiate on the capitalized cost side of the equation, which flows directly into your monthly payment.</p><p>If you are cross-shopping the Rogue against other compact SUVs on the market, it is worth asking our team directly how current Rogue lease terms compare to what competitors are advertising, since manufacturer incentives shift monthly and the Rogue's numbers are frequently competitive with, or better than, similarly sized SUVs from other brands.</p><h2>Get a Real Rogue Lease Number, Not Just an Ad</h2><p>The only way to actually know what a Nissan Rogue lease will cost you is to run real numbers against your specific credit profile, trim preference, and mileage needs. Advertised lease specials are a useful starting point, but your actual payment can vary based on factors specific to you.</p><p>Our team at Raceway Nissan in Freehold can walk you through current Rogue lease offers, explain exactly what is built into the number, and help you compare a lease against financing side by side so you can make the decision that actually fits your budget and driving habits. Stop by the dealership, browse our <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/mr-nissan-rogue">current inventory</a>, or give us a call to get a real, personalized Rogue lease quote today.</p><hr><p>

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p>Nissan's top three largest SUVs for 2026 are the full-size Armada, the mid-size Pathfinder, and the luxurious Murano. The Armada offers maximum space and an 8,500-pound towing capacity, the Pathfinder provides versatile family seating for eight, and the Murano delivers a premium, five-passenger experience. Raceway Nissan of Freehold proudly carries all three models.</p><p>Finding the right vehicle for a growing family often means upgrading to a spacious SUV. Drivers need enough room for passengers, ample cargo space for weekend gear, and the towing capacity to handle boats or trailers. Nissan delivers on all these fronts with a diverse lineup of large SUVs designed to tackle different lifestyles and driving demands.</p><p>Navigating the various trim levels, engine specifications, and seating configurations can feel overwhelming. Narrowing down the choices requires a clear understanding of what each vehicle excels at. Nissan provides options that range from rugged, off-road warriors to sophisticated, spa-like daily drivers.</p><p>Our team at Raceway Nissan of Freehold is proud to have these exceptional SUVs in stock. We want to help you make an informed decision by breaking down the specific features, capabilities, and dimensions of the 2026 Nissan Armada, the 2026 Nissan Pathfinder, and the 2026 Nissan Murano.</p><h2>2026 Nissan Armada: The Full-Size Powerhouse</h2><p><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/mr-nissan-armada">The 2026 Nissan Armada</a> stands as the largest and most capable vehicle in the Nissan SUV lineup. This full-size SUV offers first-class seating for up to eight passengers and brings over 70 years of Nissan off-road heritage to the modern driver.</p><p>Under the hood, the 2026 Nissan Armada features an advanced 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain generates a massive 425 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. Because of this robust engine, the Armada achieves a maximum towing capacity of 8,500 pounds, making it the ideal choice for towing large campers or heavy equipment.</p><p>For buyers interested in off-road capability, Nissan introduces the first-ever Armada PRO-4X trim for 2026. This trim includes an adaptive electronic air suspension system that raises the vehicle for better ground clearance or lowers it for easier loading. Additionally, the Armada features an Invisible Hood View camera system, giving drivers an unobstructed digital view of the terrain directly beneath the front bumper.</p><p>Inside the cabin, the 2026 Nissan Armada surrounds drivers with advanced technology. A massive 28-inch combined Monolith Display houses the digital dashboard and infotainment system. Buyers can also upgrade to a Klipsch Premium Audio System, which uses 12 strategically placed speakers to deliver authentic, audiophile-quality surround sound.</p><p>Choose the 2026 Nissan Armada if you require maximum towing capacity, serious off-road features, and seating for eight adults on long road trips.</p><h2>2026 Nissan Pathfinder: The Versatile Family Explorer</h2><p><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/mr-nissan-pathfinder">The 2026 Nissan Pathfinder</a> serves as a highly adaptable mid-size SUV. It bridges the gap between rugged utility and everyday family convenience. Like the Armada, the Pathfinder can accommodate up to eight passengers, but it also offers an available seven-passenger configuration featuring comfortable second-row captain's chairs.</p><p>Performance remains a strong suit for the 2026 Nissan Pathfinder. It utilizes a durable 3.5-liter V6 engine that works alongside a 9-speed automatic transmission. This setup provides the Pathfinder with a maximum towing capacity of up to 6,000 pounds. Drivers dealing with unpredictable weather or rough trails will benefit from the available Intelligent 4x4 system, which includes seven distinct drive and terrain modes such as Mud/Rut, Sand, Snow, and Tow.</p><p>The Pathfinder interior caters to modern connectivity and comfort. Drivers enjoy dual 12.3-inch displays for navigation and vehicle information, while an available Head-Up Display projects critical driving data directly onto the windshield. Furthermore, the 2026 Nissan Pathfinder earns high marks for safety. It holds an IIHS Top Safety Pick designation and a 5-Star Overall Vehicle Safety Rating from the NHTSA, providing peace of mind for families on the go.</p><p>Choose the 2026 Nissan Pathfinder if your family needs flexible seating configurations, excellent safety ratings, and reliable 4x4 capabilities for weekend camping trips.</p><h2>2026 Nissan Murano: The Mid-Size Luxury Retreat</h2><p><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/mr-nissan-murano">The 2026 Nissan Murano</a> takes a different approach to the mid-size SUV segment by prioritizing premium comfort, striking design, and advanced efficiency. While it does not feature a third row, it excels at providing a highly refined, five-passenger driving experience.</p><p>Nissan equipped the 2026 Murano with a responsive VC-Turbo engine that produces 241 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. This innovative engine design allows the Murano to balance power with impressive fuel economy, achieving up to 27 MPG on the highway. Available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive continuously monitors road conditions to deliver enhanced traction exactly when it is needed.</p><p>The cabin of the 2026 Nissan Murano functions as a mobile sanctuary. Drivers and passengers are treated to available quilted semi-aniline leather-appointed seats, which include ventilation and massaging functions for the front row. The dashboard boasts elegant 12.3-inch dual displays that run on Google built-in technology. This allows users to control Google Maps, cabin climate, and media using simple voice commands.</p><p>Choose the 2026 Nissan Murano if you value a luxurious interior, striking exterior styling, and high fuel efficiency over the need for third-row passenger seating.</p><h2>Frequently Asked Questions About Nissan SUVs</h2><h3>What is the seating capacity of the largest Nissan SUVs?</h3><p>The 2026 Nissan Armada and the 2026 Nissan Pathfinder both offer seating for up to eight passengers.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p>Drivers looking for a sophisticated, capable, and tech-forward crossover have plenty of options on the market. Standing out requires a unique blend of bold design, reliable performance, and premium comfort. <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/mr-nissan-murano">The brand-new 2026 Nissan Murano</a> arrives with a fresh perspective on what a midsize crossover can be. From a highly advanced powertrain to a deeply connected cabin, this vehicle brings significant upgrades to the road.</p><p>If you are a New Jersey driver searching for the perfect vehicle to handle daily commutes and weekend road trips, this crossover deserves a spot on your shortlist. We understand that finding the right SUV takes research, time, and careful consideration. You need a vehicle that aligns perfectly with your lifestyle, budget, and driving preferences.</p><p>Throughout this comprehensive guide, we will explore everything you need to know about the newest Murano lineup. From an in-depth look at the distinct trim levels to a detailed breakdown of the advanced safety features, you will gain a complete understanding of what this vehicle offers. When you finish reading, you will be fully prepared to <a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/tM196s4ZPxTd2RRV8">visit Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a> and experience this impressive crossover for yourself.</p><h2>Under the Hood: Power and Efficiency</h2><p>Nissan has completely revitalized the powertrain for this latest generation. Every model is equipped with a 2.0-liter VC-Turbo DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine. This advanced variable compression turbo engine delivers an impressive 241 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 260 lb-ft of torque at 4,400 rpm. The variable compression technology seamlessly adjusts its compression ratio to optimize either power or efficiency based on your real-time driving demands.</p><p>This engine pairs with a smooth 9-speed automatic transmission, replacing the CVT found in previous generations. The result is a more engaging and responsive driving experience. Furthermore, every trim comes standard with an intuitive All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system, providing enhanced traction and control during harsh weather conditions.</p><p>Fuel economy remains highly competitive for the midsize crossover segment. Drivers can expect an EPA-estimated 21 MPG in the city, 27 MPG on the highway, and a combined rating of 23 MPG. The vehicle runs perfectly on standard regular unleaded fuel, keeping your trips to the gas station affordable.</p><h2>A Premium Experience: The 2026 Nissan Murano Interior</h2><p>Stepping inside this crossover reveals a cabin designed for ultimate comfort and connectivity. The 2026 Nissan Murano interior focuses heavily on high-quality materials and smart ergonomics. Front-row passengers enjoy standard power-adjustable, heated seats. Depending on the trim, you can upgrade to ventilated seats and even premium massage functions to alleviate fatigue during long journeys.</p><p>At the center of the dashboard sits a massive NissanConnect 12.3-inch touch-screen infotainment system. This high-resolution display serves as the command center for all your audio, navigation, and vehicle settings. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration come completely wireless across all models, eliminating cable clutter.</p><p>A standard 12.3-inch multi-function information display replaces traditional analog gauges behind the steering wheel. This customizable digital instrument cluster provides crucial driving data, navigation prompts, and safety alerts directly in your line of sight. Higher trims also integrate Google built-in, granting direct access to Google Maps, Google Assistant, and the Google Play Store without needing to connect your smartphone.</p><p>Cargo space is generous and practical. Behind the second row, you will find 32.9 cubic feet of interior cargo volume. The 60-40 split-folding rear bench seats easily collapse to accommodate larger items, from bulky groceries to sporting equipment and luggage.</p><h2>Exploring the Trim Levels</h2><p>Nissan keeps the lineup streamlined and highly equipped. Buyers can choose from three distinct trim levels, ensuring there is a configuration tailored to every preference.</p><h3>2026 Nissan Murano SV</h3><p>The 2026 Nissan Murano SV serves as the entry point, but it feels anything but basic. It rides on bold 20-inch gloss black aluminum-alloy wheels and features a sleek black front grille. Inside, the seats are trimmed in durable, high-quality Prima-Tex material.</p><p>Both the driver and front passenger enjoy heated, power-adjustable seats. You also receive a standard six-speaker audio system, wireless smartphone charging, and four USB ports to keep everyone's devices powered. The SV trim perfectly balances essential modern tech with everyday practicality.</p><h3>2026 Nissan Murano SL</h3><p>Stepping up to the 2026 Nissan Murano SL unlocks several premium enhancements. The wheels are upgraded to 20-inch dark-painted aluminum alloys, while the roof opens up with a standard panoramic moonroof spanning the first and second rows.</p><p>Interior comfort sees a major boost with a heated, TailorFit leatherette steering wheel. The infotainment system upgrades to include Google built-in and a phenomenal 10-speaker BOSE Premium Sound System. You also gain an HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor, making tight parking maneuvers incredibly simple.</p><h3>2026 Nissan Murano Platinum</h3><p>At the top of the lineup sits the luxurious 2026 Nissan Murano Platinum. This model demands attention with stunning 21-inch machine-finished aluminum-alloy wheels. The cabin transforms into a genuine luxury space with semi-aniline quilted leather-appointed seats.</p><p>The front seats offer climate control (heating and cooling) alongside a 4-way power lumbar support and massage function. Rear-seat passengers are not left out, as heated rear seats come standard. This trim represents the pinnacle of Nissan's design and engineering capabilities.</p><h2>A Comprehensive 2026 Nissan Murano Price Guide</h2><p>Understanding the financial commitment is a vital part of the car-buying process. The 2026 Nissan Murano price structure reflects the immense value and standard technology packed into every model. Keep in mind that these figures represent the starting Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) and exclude the $1,545 destination and handling charge, taxes, title, and dealer options.</p><ul><li><b>SV AWD:</b> Starting at $41,670</li><li><b>SL AWD: </b>Starting at $46,760</li><li><b>Platinum AWD:</b> Starting at $49,800</li></ul><p>The pricing strategy ensures that even the base SV model provides a comprehensive suite of features, while the Platinum trim competes directly with luxury brands at a more accessible price point.</p><h2>Advanced Safety and Driver Assistance</h2><p>Nissan prioritizes passenger safety with a massive suite of standard protective features. Every model is equipped with the renowned Safety Shield 360 technology. This includes Intelligent Forward Collision Warning with Automatic Emergency Braking and Pedestrian Detection.</p><p>Protecting your blind zones, the Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention and Rear Cross Traffic Alert with Rear Automatic Braking provide complete peace of mind when changing lanes or reversing. If you drift out of your lane, Intelligent Lane Intervention gently guides you back to the center.</p><p>Highway driving becomes vastly more relaxing thanks to standard ProPILOT Assist. This hands-on active lane-centering and intelligent cruise control system maintains a set distance from the car ahead and helps keep the vehicle centered in its lane. The SL and Platinum trims feature an advanced version of Intelligent Cruise Control with traffic stop-and-go capabilities.</p><h2>2026 Nissan Murano Review: The Final Verdict</h2><p>Any thorough 2026 Nissan Murano review will highlight the substantial leap forward this vehicle represents. By swapping the CVT for a responsive 9-speed automatic and introducing the potent VC-Turbo engine, Nissan has dramatically improved the driving dynamics.</p><p>The streamlined trim hierarchy means you do not have to navigate a confusing maze of optional packages to get the features you want. Whether you prioritize the value of the SV, the premium audio and panoramic roof of the SL, or the outright luxury of the Platinum's massaging seats, this crossover delivers exceptional quality across the board.</p><h2>Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)</h2><h3>What is the towing capacity of the new Murano?</h3><p>When properly equipped, the vehicle offers a maximum towing capacity of up to 1,500 pounds. This is perfect for pulling small utility trailers or lightweight recreational equipment.</p><h3>How much ground clearance does the vehicle have?</h3><p>All trims feature a practical 8.3 inches of ground clearance.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone wp-image-6761 size-large" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2025/09/Find-Your-Perfect-Car-Online-at-Raceway-Nissan-NJ-1024x576.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="576" />

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Car shopping has come a long way from the days of driving from dealership to dealership, hoping to stumble upon the right vehicle. Today, most of the journey begins  and often ends  online. If you’re in New Jersey and ready to find a car that fits your lifestyle, budget, and taste, </span><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Raceway Nissan NJ</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> makes the process simple, transparent, and surprisingly enjoyable.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">In this article, we’ll explore how Raceway Nissan’s online tools, inventory, and customer-first approach can help you discover the car you’ve been searching for without the hassle.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The New Way to Car Shop</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Let’s be honest: buying a car used to be intimidating. Between negotiating prices, sorting through financing options, and navigating endless rows of vehicles at every Nissan dealership near me, the process wasn’t exactly something most people looked forward to.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">But times have changed. Now, more than 80% of car buyers start their search online. That means you can browse, compare, and even apply for financing without ever stepping foot on the lot. Raceway Nissan NJ has fully embraced this shift, making it easier than ever to shop confidently from the comfort of your couch.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">A Wide Range of Nissan Cars  All at Your Fingertips</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When you visit Raceway Nissan NJ’s website, you’ll find a constantly updated inventory of new and pre-owned vehicles. Whether you’re eyeing the latest </span><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/inventory/used-2024-nissan-altima-2-5-sv-fwd-4d-sedan-1n4bl4dv1rn332113/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nissan Altima</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for its smooth ride and fuel efficiency, the versatile </span><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/inventory/used-2021-nissan-rogue-sv-awd-4d-sport-utility-5n1at3bb5mc690775/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nissan Rogue</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for family adventures, or even a tough Nissan Titan for heavy-duty work, it’s all just a few clicks away.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the standout features of browsing online is the ability to filter your search. Looking for a sedan under $25,000? Done. Need an SUV with low mileage? Easy. Want a certified pre-owned Nissan that comes with extra peace of mind? You can zero in on those options instantly.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Instead of wandering around different Nissan auto dealerships, you can compare models, trims, and features side by side online. That means you’ll save time and focus only on vehicles that truly fit your lifestyle.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Transparency You Can Trust</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the biggest concerns car shoppers have is pricing. At Raceway Nissan NJ, transparency is built into the online shopping experience. Every vehicle listed comes with detailed information, from mileage and specs to clear pricing and available offers.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">When searching for </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, the options can feel endless, but finding one that blends trustworthy service, competitive pricing, and a wide selection of vehicles is key to a smart purchase. This comprehensive guide will walk you through what to look for in a dealership, how to secure the best deals, and why certain names stand out in a crowded market. Whether you’re after a brand-new model, a certified pre-owned option, or OEM parts and service, knowing where to shop can save you both time and money. In this article, we’ll explore the traits that make a dealership worth your trust, highlight practical maintenance tips for protecting your investment, and introduce an industry leader offering exclusive savings.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Choosing the right dealership impacts not only the car you drive but also the long-term value you get from it. The most reputable </span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"><b>auto dealers near me</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> provide transparent pricing, well-maintained inventory, and service departments staffed by certified technicians. They also make financing simple, provide warranties you can count on, and prioritize customer satisfaction before, during, and after the sale. This guide aims to balance both the </span><b>informational</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> aspect helping you make an informed purchase and the </span><b>transactional</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> side, showing you where to get exceptional offers right now.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Selecting the Right Auto Dealers Near Me is Essential</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The term </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> isn’t just a search phrase it’s the starting point for one of the most important buying decisions you’ll make. A dealership is more than a place to buy a vehicle; it’s where you return for service, accessories, warranty claims, and advice on upgrades. Working with the right team ensures you’re not just making a purchase you’re forming a long-term automotive relationship.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">From the first showroom visit to the final handshake, reputable dealers build trust with clear communication and zero hidden fees. They’ll also walk you through the features of each model, compare trims, and even suggest options you might not have considered. For buyers researching </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">car sales places near me</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, the best dealerships will always back their recommendations with data like resale values, fuel economy stats, and ownership costs rather than pressure tactics.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Signs of a Reliable Car Dealership</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The top dealerships for cars consistently maintain well-stocked showrooms and lots, including both new and pre-owned vehicles. They display their certifications proudly, maintain an organized environment, and have knowledgeable staff on hand. In addition, they’re proactive about customer support answering inquiries quickly, offering transparent quotes, and never pushing unnecessary add-ons.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">A high-quality </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> will also provide resources for buyers after the sale, from service appointment reminders to seasonal care tips. These added touches not only help keep your car running smoothly but also build long-term loyalty.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">How to Get the Most Value From Car Sales Places Near Me</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When narrowing down </span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"><b>car sales places near me</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, prioritize those offering a wide variety of financing and leasing options. Whether you want to drive away in a </span><b>car from dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> or explore lease terms that fit your budget, flexibility is key.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Test-driving remains one of the most important steps in the process. Reliable dealers encourage it, offering different trims or models so you can compare firsthand. They also make trade-in evaluations simple, often providing on-the-spot offers based on current market data.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Benefits of Buying a Car from Dealership Over Private Sellers</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">While private sales may sometimes seem cheaper, purchasing a </span><b>car from dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> provides essential benefits:</span>
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Warranty coverage, whether manufacturer or dealer-backed</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">

</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Certified inspections ensuring vehicle safety and reliability</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">

</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Financing support with competitive rates</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">

</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Legal protection through documented transactions</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">

</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">These factors not only add peace of mind but can save you thousands in future repairs or disputes.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Protecting Your Investment After Purchase</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Once you’ve driven off the lot, proper maintenance becomes your priority. Quality dealerships don’t just sell vehicles they support their customers with service reminders, OEM parts, and expert technicians. When caring for a </span><b>car on dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> purchase, routine maintenance is your first line of defense against costly repairs.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Cleaning your vehicle regularly preserves both appearance and resale value. Interior cleaning should address not only carpets and seats but also air vents and infotainment screens. Exterior care involves proper washing techniques to avoid scratches, as well as applying wax to protect paint from UV damage.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Storage matters too parking in shaded areas or garages helps reduce wear caused by sun exposure. In colder months, protecting your tires and battery from extreme temperatures ensures better performance.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Example Perspective on Choosing Dealerships for Cars</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The </span><b>example</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> approach to automotive service emphasizes transparency, customer-focused recommendations, and long-term value. Instead of pushing quick sales, the focus is on matching each customer with the right vehicle for their needs. Their experience shows that shoppers looking for </span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"><b>dealerships for cars</b> </a><span style="font-weight: 400;">benefit most from environments where they feel informed and respected.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">This means providing clear explanations of financing terms, outlining every available warranty, and ensuring vehicles are prepped for the road before delivery. For many, the journey with a dealer doesn’t end with a signature it’s the beginning of years of reliable support.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Raceway Nissan Freehold Stands Out</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Among the </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, Raceway Nissan Freehold earns recognition for its competitive offers, knowledgeable staff, and exceptional customer service. They provide an extensive selection of new Nissan models alongside certified pre-owned options, each backed by thorough inspections.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Their current promotion </span><b>Claim Up to $120 Off OEM Tires</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> adds even more value, especially for customers prioritizing safety and performance. OEM tires are designed to match your vehicle’s specifications perfectly, ensuring optimal handling, braking, and fuel efficiency.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Raceway Nissan Freehold’s service department is equipped with advanced diagnostic tools and staffed by certified technicians who understand the nuances of every model they sell. Whether you’re scheduling routine maintenance or a complex repair, their goal is to get you back on the road quickly and confidently.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Take the Next Step Toward Your Ideal Vehicle</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Finding the right </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> involves balancing selection, service quality, and value. Raceway Nissan Freehold checks each of these boxes, providing an experience built on trust and expertise.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">If you’re ready to explore their inventory, schedule service, or take advantage of the </span><b>Claim Up to $120 Off OEM Tires</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> promotion, visit</span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">our website</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> today and experience the difference for yourself.</span> ]]></content:encoded>

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone wp-image-6278 size-large" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2025/06/2025-Nissan-Rogue-vs.-Honda-CR-V-1024x576.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="576" />

<span style="font-weight: 400;">When drivers in Freehold compare compact SUVs, the 2025 Nissan Rogue and Honda CR‑V are almost always at the top of the list. Both have earned strong reputations for reliability, fuel efficiency, and comfort. But when it comes to real-world value, what you get for the price you pay, there are clear differences that matter.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Here’s a closer look at how these two segment leaders stack up, and why the Rogue may offer the stronger case for buyers who want modern tech, performance, and features without overspending.</span>
<h3><b>Pricing and Ownership Costs</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the first, and most important, factors for any SUV shopper is cost. The 2025 Nissan Rogue starts around $28,590, while the 2025 Honda CR‑V starts closer to $30,100. That $1,500+ difference can go a long way when considering accessories, warranty protection, or lower monthly payments. In terms of long-term ownership, the Rogue continues to be one of the most affordable SUVs in its class, especially when equipped with standard features that often require trim upgrades in competitors.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">If you're comparing total value from day one, the Rogue gives you more for less, especially when you consider the pre-tariff pricing still available at Raceway Nissan of Freehold.</span>
<h3><b>Performance and Driving Experience</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Under the hood, the Rogue features a 1.5-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder engine that delivers 201 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque. The Honda CR‑V uses a 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder that makes 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque. While the difference on paper may not seem dramatic, it’s noticeable on the road. The Rogue’s turbo engine produces stronger low-end torque, which translates into quicker acceleration, smoother passing, and a more confident highway experience.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Both vehicles use a continuously variable transmission (CVT), but Nissan’s updated design gives the Rogue a more responsive and refined feel during daily driving. Whether you’re commuting on Route 9 or taking weekend trips down the Parkway, the Rogue handles confidently and keeps engine noise low even under load.</span>
<h3><b>Interior Space and Comfort</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Inside the cabin, the Rogue feels modern and intuitive, with clean lines, quality materials, and a thoughtful layout. It offers ample room for front and rear passengers, especially with more than 43 inches of front legroom, which is ideal for taller drivers. One standout is Nissan’s available Zero Gravity seats, designed to reduce fatigue during long drives.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Cargo space in the Rogue is competitive, though the CR‑V edges it out slightly with a maximum of 76.5 cubic feet with the seats folded. That said, the Rogue makes up for it with the innovative Divide-N-Hide® cargo system, which allows owners to customize cargo space for hidden storage or vertical stacking. It’s a smarter use of the space most families actually need.</span>
<h3><b>Technology and Infotainment</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When it comes to technology, the Rogue takes a clear lead in offering high-end features at a more accessible price. The 2025 Rogue comes available with a 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, a digital instrument cluster, and integrated Google built-in services on SL and Platinum trims. ProPILOT Assist 2.1 also adds semi-autonomous highway driving capability, something not currently matched by the CR‑V.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The CR‑V’s technology is respectable but less advanced. Its standard touchscreen tops out at 7 inches on lower trims, with a 9-inch screen only available on top models. It lacks some of the integrated Google functionality and requires more investment to access the same level of infotainment or driver-assistance features.</span>
<h3><b>Fuel Economy</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">If fuel efficiency is your top priority, the conversation becomes more nuanced. The Rogue delivers an impressive 30 MPG city and up to 37 MPG highway with front-wheel drive, which is outstanding for a gas-powered SUV of its size. The CR‑V gets about 28/34 MPG in its turbocharged gas version, still efficient, but not quite on the Rogue’s level.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The CR‑V does offer a hybrid variant that boosts MPG to roughly 40 MPG combined, which may appeal to drivers with long commutes or a strong preference for green driving. However, it’s worth noting that the hybrid version comes at a higher cost and has less towing capacity and slightly different driving dynamics. It’s efficient, but not necessarily more versatile.</span>
<h3><b>Safety and Driver Assistance</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Both the 2025 Rogue and CR‑V are equipped with a full suite of driver-assistance features, including automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, blind spot monitoring, and adaptive cruise control. However, Nissan takes things further by including ProPILOT Assist on more trims, along with available upgrades like a heads-up display and 360-degree camera system.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">These tools not only add convenience but also help drivers stay more aware and confident behind the wheel. When it comes to standard safety at a lower entry price, Rogue once again delivers more.</span>
<h3><b>Local Pricing Advantage: Pre-Tariff Inventory</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">What gives the Rogue an additional edge right now, especially for Freehold drivers, is pricing stability in the face of industry-wide tariff increases. Due to new U.S. import tariffs on vehicles and parts, prices for many 2025 models and OEM components are set to rise across the board.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Fortunately, Raceway Nissan’s current lot was stocked before the tariffs took effect, meaning our Rogue inventory is still priced at pre-tariff levels. That alone can make a difference of several hundred dollars (or more), depending on the trim and packages you're considering. If you're planning to buy or lease, this is an opportunity worth taking.</span>

<h3><b>Final Thoughts</b></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Both the 2025 Nissan Rogue and the Honda CR‑V are excellent compact SUVs. The CR‑V stands out with its hybrid efficiency and slightly more cargo space. But when you look at pricing, performance, interior tech, and driving experience, the Rogue delivers more real-world value, especially for drivers who want premium features without stretching their budget.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">With pre-tariff pricing still in effect, the case for the Rogue becomes even stronger. It’s a refined, capable SUV that checks every box Freehold drivers care about.</span>

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone wp-image-6275 size-large" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2025/06/Why-Freehold-Drivers-Trust-Us-for-Every-Nissan-Service-1024x576.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="576" />

<span style="font-weight: 400;">If you own a Nissan in Freehold, chances are you’ve already heard of Raceway Nissan. And if you’ve serviced your vehicle here before, you know why so many drivers keep coming back.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Let’s talk about what actually matters when it comes to service, technical expertise, real parts, efficient processes, and cost. And yes, cost is especially important right now, with pricing about to change across the entire industry due to tariffs.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Whether you’re here for routine maintenance, repairs, or you're considering a vehicle upgrade, here's why Raceway Nissan remains the smart, long-term choice for drivers across Central Jersey and why acting now can save you money.</span>
<h2><b>Certified Technicians Who Know Your Vehicle Inside and Out</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">There’s no guesswork when you bring your vehicle to our shop. Every technician here is Nissan-trained and continues to receive factory-backed education. We don’t outsource key services, and we don’t apply generic fixes. That’s especially important with modern Nissan systems; everything from the electric drivetrain in a LEAF® to the advanced safety features in a Rogue depends on service teams that know exactly what they’re doing.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">We also offer specialized care for performance models and EVs, including GT-R diagnostics and certified EV maintenance.</span>

<b>Schedule service with our team:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">
</span><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/service/service-parts-special-coupons/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Book Your Service Appointment</span></a>
<h2><b>Services That Fit Your Schedule, Not the Other Way Around</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Your time is valuable. That’s why we offer both Express Service for routine needs, like oil changes and battery replacements, and full-service appointments for everything else.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Our Express Service Lane is designed for speed without sacrificing quality. Most visits are completed in under an hour. No appointment needed.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Need something more involved, like a brake replacement or alignment? We’ll get you in and out with clear timelines and upfront pricing. Loaner vehicles and courtesy transportation are available when needed, so your day doesn’t come to a stop just because your vehicle does.</span>

<b>See our current service offers:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">
</span><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/service/service-parts-special-coupons/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Service Coupons &amp; Promotions</span></a>
<h2><b>OEM Parts Only, No Exceptions</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Every part we install is genuine Nissan equipment, sourced directly from the manufacturer. This isn’t just about brand loyalty, it’s about ensuring your vehicle continues to operate the way it was engineered to. Cheaper, off-brand parts can impact performance and even void certain warranties.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">From brake pads to diagnostic sensors, our Parts Department is stocked with OEM components, so your repair is done right the first time. It’s one of the reasons our service carries long-term value; you’re not coming back for the same fix twice.</span>
<h2><b>Now Is the Time, Here’s Why Tariffs Matter</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Let’s address something important: vehicle and parts pricing is about to shift, and not in your favor.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Due to recently enacted tariffs, imported vehicles and many auto parts are now subject to an additional 25% charge. That means new shipments, whether it’s brake rotors, filters, or full vehicles, will arrive with higher base costs.</span>

<b>Here’s the good news:</b>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">All of our current in-stock inventory and parts were ordered before the tariffs took effect. That means everything available today, whether it's a Rogue in the showroom or a replacement alternator, is priced at pre-tariff levels.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">If you’ve been putting off a repair, service visit, or even thinking about upgrading your vehicle, this is the moment to act.</span>

<b>Browse new inventory while pre-tariff pricing lasts:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">

<h2><b>Full-Spectrum Services, Start to Finish</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">We’re equipped to handle every part of your vehicle’s life cycle. Whether you need:</span>
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Oil &amp; filter changes</span></li>

 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Check engine light diagnostics</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">You’ll get a professional experience from the minute you check in to the moment your vehicle is ready. And if you’re unsure about anything, our team explains it clearly, no jargon, no pressure.</span>

<b>Advanced Tools. Transparent Process.</b>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">We use Nissan’s latest diagnostic software to assess issues fast and accurately. Many service visits now include video inspections, which let you see the condition of your parts before approving any repairs. You stay in control of the process at every stage.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Want to plan ahead? Our online tools let you book appointments, check recall status, and even access service history with just a few clicks.</span>

<b>Schedule online anytime:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">
</span><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/service/schedule-service/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Reserve Your Service Time</span></a>
<h2><b>Every Visit Earns You Rewards</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">If you’re a member of the Nissan One-to-One Rewards Program, every service dollar you spend earns points toward future visits or even your next vehicle. It’s free to join and easy to manage. Think of it as just one more way we return value to our customers over time.</span>

<h2><b>Take Action Before Tariff Pricing Hits</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">We’re not raising prices today. But we will have to adjust once the new stock arrives at a higher cost. That goes for both parts and new vehicles.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">So if your Nissan is due for service or if you’ve been considering a trade-in or purchase, this is your window to do it before those costs increase.</span>
<ul>

 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Check our in-stock vehicle inventory</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Lock in existing pricing before it changes</span></li>

March is National Credit Education Month, the perfect time to take control of your finances and work toward goals like buying your dream car! A good credit score doesn’t just boost your chances of approval—it can also help you get better loan terms and lower interest rates, saving you thousands. Here’s how to improve your credit and get closer to driving the car you’ve always wanted.
<h2>Understanding Credit Basics</h2>
Your credit score isn’t just a number—it’s a snapshot of how you manage money, from paying bills to handling debt. Ranging from 300 to 850, it helps lenders assess your <a href="https://www.moneyfit.org/national-credit-education-month/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">creditworthiness</a>. A higher score means better loan terms and lower interest rates.
<h3>What Impacts Your Credit Score?</h3>
There are a few key factors that influence your credit score, including:
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Payment History</strong> (35%): Making consistent, on-time payments is the single most important factor.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Credit Utilization</strong> (30%): This is the ratio of your credit card balance to your total credit limit. Aim to keep it below 30%.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Credit History Length</strong> (15%): The longer your credit history, the better.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Credit Mix</strong> (10%): Having a mix of credit types (e.g., credit cards, mortgages, auto loans) can positively impact your score.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>New Credit</strong> (10%): Frequent credit inquiries or newly opened accounts can temporarily lower your score.</li>
</ul>
By understanding these factors, you can take meaningful steps toward improving your credit score.
<h2>Steps to Improve Your Credit Health</h2>
Use these actionable steps to build or repair your credit score and prepare for your dream car purchase:
<ol>
 	<li><strong> Check Your Credit Report </strong></li>
</ol>
Start by obtaining <a href="https://blog.clover.com/march-is-national-credit-education-month/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">free credit reports</a> from Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax. Under the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act, you’re entitled to one free report from each agency annually. Review these reports for errors, such as:
<ul>
 	<li>Unusual charges</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Incorrect balances</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Accounts you don’t recognize</li>
</ul>
If you find mistakes, dispute them directly with the corresponding credit bureau. Addressing inaccuracies can quickly boost your score.
<ol start="2">
 	<li><strong> Pay Bills on Time </strong></li>
</ol>
Since payment history carries the most weight in your credit score, always pay at least the minimum amount due by the deadline. To avoid missed payments, consider enrolling in autopay or setting calendar reminders.
<ol start="3">
 	<li><strong> Manage Your Credit Utilization </strong></li>
</ol>
Lenders like to see a credit utilization ratio below 30%. For example, if your total credit limit is $10,000, aim to keep your balance under $3,000. Strategies to lower your utilization include paying off credit card balances or asking for a credit limit increase.
<ol start="4">
 	<li><strong> Pay Down Existing Debt </strong></li>
</ol>
The less debt you have, the healthier your credit score will be. Consider using one of these two popular strategies to pay off debts:
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Snowball Method</strong>: Focus on paying off your smallest debts first to build momentum.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Avalanche Method</strong>: Prioritize debts with the highest interest rates to save money on interest over time.</li>
</ul>
Choose the method that works best for your financial situation and motivation.
<ol start="5">
 	<li><strong> Limit Hard Credit Inquiries </strong></li>
</ol>
Every time you apply for new credit, a “hard inquiry” is added to your credit report. This can temporarily lower your score. Avoid applying for multiple <a href="https://getsqwire.com/national-credit-education-month-do-you-know-your-numbers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">credit cards or loans</a> within a short time frame.
<ol start="6">
 	<li><strong> Resolve Accounts in Collections </strong></li>
</ol>
If you have accounts in collections, paying them down should be your first priority. Outstanding collections can significantly harm your credit score, so addressing them ASAP is critical.
<ol start="7">
 	<li><strong> Keep Old Accounts Open </strong></li>
</ol>
Unless a card has a high annual fee, keep older accounts open to maintain your credit history. Closing old accounts could shorten your credit history length and lower your score.
<ol start="8">
 	<li><strong> Use Credit Responsibly Moving Forward </strong></li>
</ol>
Once you’ve improved your credit score, focus on maintaining good habits, such as:
<ul>
 	<li>Paying bills on time.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Keeping credit card balances low.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Periodically reviewing your credit reports to spot issues early.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Why Good Credit is Essential for Buying a Car</h2>
A healthy credit score can make or break your dream car deal. Lenders reward <a href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/auto-loans/average-monthly-car-payment/#calculate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">strong credit scores</a> with lower interest rates, saving you money over the life of your loan. For example, someone with excellent credit might get a 3% interest rate, while <a href="https://www.edmunds.com/car-buying/buying-a-new-car-when-you-have-bad-credit.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">poor credit</a> could mean rates of 10% or higher. A high credit score also boosts your chances of loan approval, especially for larger loans or premium cars. On the other hand, poor credit may limit your options, require a cosigner, or result in a subprime loan with higher rates and less favorable terms. Keeping a strong credit score is key to securing better car loans and avoiding unnecessary costs.
<h2>Setting Goals for Credit Success</h2>
Improving your credit health doesn’t happen overnight, but taking small steps today will lead to long-term rewards. Here’s how to stay on track:
<ol>
 	<li>Review your credit reports annually and work to correct errors.</li>
</ol>
<ol>
 	<li>Stick to a debt repayment strategy, such as the Snowball or Avalanche method.</li>
</ol>
<ol>
 	<li>Make on-time payments a financial priority.</li>
</ol>
<ol>
 	<li>Treat your credit like a valuable asset and manage it responsibly.</li>

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-5382" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2025/02/iStock-1077942906-1024x683.jpg" alt="Motor car Nissan Xterra in the city street." width="1024" height="683" />

Nearly a decade after its discontinuation in the U.S., the Nissan Xterra could be making a much-anticipated return. On December 23, 2024, Nissan filed a new trademark application for the Xterra name with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. This filing has reignited interest in the iconic off-road SUV, which built a loyal following during its production run from 2000 to 2015. Could the rugged Xterra be poised for a revival? Let's explore this beloved vehicle's details, legacy, and potential future.
<h2>A Glimpse into Xterra's History</h2>
The Nissan Xterra debuted in 2000 as a practical, affordable off-road SUV. Built on the sturdy Nissan Frontier frame, it quickly earned a reputation for its rugged capabilities and simple design. Early models featured a manual-shift transfer case, four-wheel drive, and a limited-slip rear differential, making it a reliable trail companion.

Offered in XE and SE trims, the Xterra came with either <a href="https://www.kbb.com/nissan/xterra/2000/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a 2.4-liter four-cylinder or a 3.3-liter V6</a> engine. While its horsepower was modest, it was loved for its reliability and affordability. Owners praised its versatility, calling it <a href="https://www.motortrend.com/features/2000-2004-nissan-xterra-underappreciated-classic/#google_vignette" target="_blank" rel="noopener">perfect for camping trips or snowy commutes</a>. With its "go anywhere" attitude, the Xterra earned a 4.5 out of 5 consumer rating.

Production ended in 2015 due to declining sales and rising competition, leaving many enthusiasts mourning the loss of this no-frills off-road SUV.
<h2>The 2024 Trademark Filing – A Beacon of Hope</h2>
By late 2024, Nissan's <a href="https://www.slashgear.com/994200/the-12-most-reliable-suvs-of-all-time-ranked/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recent trademark application</a> has sparked excitement among car enthusiasts and loyal fans. While the filing doesn’t confirm a new model, it secures rights to the Xterra name for SUVs until 2027, hinting at a possible return to the lineup.

The idea of a modern Xterra isn’t far-fetched. Nissan has already revived the name in the Middle East with a model based on the Navara pickup (sold as the Nissan Terra in China) since 2021. This Navara-based Xterra could inspire a U.S. version, or Nissan might create a Frontier-based Xterra specifically for North America to compete with off-road icons like the Toyota 4Runner and the new Land Cruiser.
<h2>Why Now? The Revival of Off-Road SUVs</h2>
The timing for an Xterra comeback couldn’t be better. The <a href="https://www.aol.com/national-margarita-day-2025-deals-172119496.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">off-road SUV</a> market is booming, driven by growing demand for <a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/vehicles/4x4-off-road.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">adventure-ready vehicles</a> with modern comforts. Models like the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler show there’s still strong interest in rugged SUVs.

Nissan could seize this opportunity to reenter the market with a reimagined Xterra. Whether budget-friendly like the original or a higher-end off-road SUV, a new Xterra would fit current trends and consumer demand.
<h2>What a New Xterra Could Look Like</h2>
Fans speculate about a potential new Nissan Xterra, though no official details have been released. Many hope the SUV will stay true to its roots—simple, dependable, and off-road capable—while adding modern safety features, better fuel efficiency, and more powerful engines. The Middle Eastern Xterra, built on the Navara pickup platform, hints at what might come with its rugged design, body-on-frame build, high-ground clearance, and off-road features. A U.S. version could add advanced tech and improved towing to attract North American buyers.

The original Xterra was loved for its off-road performance and affordability compared to rivals, which would be stellar to see return as a selling point in 2025 and beyond. Its practical, no-frills design made it a favorite for adventurers on a budget. A revival would need to balance that legacy with modern updates to meet today's standards.

If Nissan revives the Xterra, features like touchscreen infotainment, driver-assist tech, and better fuel efficiency—while preserving its rugged spirit—could appeal to both loyal fans and new buyers. Combining nostalgia with practicality and innovation could be key to its success.
<h2>Adventure With Nissan's Off-Road Suite Today!</h2>
For now, we wait. But the excitement in the car community is undeniable at the thought of the Xterra nameplate returning to showrooms. With off-road SUVs on the rise, now is the perfect time for Nissan to bring back this iconic model to join its off-road lineup, including the Nissan Frontier, Pathfinder, and Armada.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-5204" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2025/01/iStock-1285448081-1024x684.jpg" alt="Cracked worn rubber hoses in a coil. Close-up." width="1024" height="684" />

February 11th marks National Inventors’ Day, a chance to recognize the geniuses who revolutionized the automotive sector. The modern car, with its cutting-edge technology and sleek design, is the result of years of creative ingenuity. The journey from steam-powered vehicles to autonomous cars began with trailblazers who pushed the boundaries of possibility.
<h2>Edward De Smedt - Paving the Way for Asphalt Roads</h2>
Before smooth highways stretched across America, inventor <a href="https://www.asphaltinstitute.org/timeline/roh-1965-e-j-desmedt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Edward De Smedt</a> envisioned a better way to pave roads. His 1870 invention of “sheet asphalt” made roads more durable and much smoother, helping cars run more efficiently. The first stretches of his asphalt roads laid in Newark, NJ, and Washington, D.C., quickly gained popularity—cyclists and drivers alike rejoiced at the innovation.

De Smedt’s material still forms the foundation of countless roads today, making him a true road trip hero.
<h2>Charles Goodyear - The Accidental Father of Vulcanized Rubber</h2>
It’s impossible to imagine modern cars without tires, and we owe those durable, reliable wheels to <a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Charles-Goodyear" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Charles Goodyear</a>. Back in 1839, Goodyear discovered the process of vulcanization by accident after dropping a mix of rubber and sulfur onto a hot stove. Instead of melting, the rubber became firm and resistant to heat. This discovery revolutionized the use of rubber, turning it into a vital material for car tires, seals, and belts.

Goodyear’s persistence, despite financial troubles and numerous setbacks, is the reason today’s cars can hit the road safely and efficiently.
<h2>Mary Anderson - Inventor of the Windshield Wiper</h2>
Ever driven in the rain without working windshield wipers? It’s difficult to imagine, but before <a href="https://www.invent.org/inductees/mary-anderson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mary Anderson</a>, drivers had to stop periodically to wipe their windshields manually. During a snowy trip to New York in 1903, Anderson noticed streetcar operators struggling with visibility. Inspired to find a solution, she designed the first functional, hand-lever-operated windshield wiper.

Though Anderson faced skepticism at the time, her invention became standard by 1913. Today, her innovation continues to keep drivers safe during rain, snow, and ice.
<h2>Henry Ford and the Revolutionary Moving Assembly Line</h2>
While Ransom E. Olds first introduced assembly line production in 1901, <a href="https://www.britannica.com/money/Henry-Ford" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Henry Ford</a> took it to the next level in 1913 with the moving assembly line. His innovation allowed for quicker, more efficient car production than anyone had seen before. By automating the assembly process, Ford reduced the time it took to produce a car chassis from over 12 hours to just 93 minutes.

This technique turned the automobile into an affordable commodity and enabled the mass production of the iconic Model T, which forever changed transportation.
<h2>Ohno Taiichi - The Creator of Just-In-Time Manufacturing</h2>
From Japan, <a href="https://www.britannica.com/money/Ohno-Taiichi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ohno Taiichi</a> reshaped auto manufacturing with his pioneering “just-in-time” (JIT) production method. While working for Toyota around the mid-20th century, he introduced a process where parts were made and delivered just as they were needed on the production line. This reduced waste and increased efficiency, propelling Toyota to become a global powerhouse.

Ohno’s JIT system revolutionized the industry and became a model for manufacturers worldwide.
<h2>The Duryea Brothers - Launching the First American Automobile</h2>
Charles and Frank Duryea didn’t just build one car—they started an industry. Their 1895 Duryea Motor Wagon became the first gasoline-powered vehicle in the U.S. to win an auto race, proving its reliability. The publicity inspired others to pursue automotive creations, and by 1896, the <a href="https://www.automotivehalloffame.org/honoree/j-frank-duryea/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Duryeas</a> produced 13 identical cars—the first instance of mass manufacturing of automobiles in America.

Thanks to their innovation, the U.S. automotive industry flourished in the years to come.
<h2>Charles B. King - A Detroit Pioneer</h2>
While Henry Ford often takes the spotlight, <a href="https://www.automotivehalloffame.org/honoree/charles-b-king/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Charles B. King</a> played a monumental role in Detroit’s rise as the automotive capital. King was the first person to design, build, and drive a car on Detroit streets in 1896—years ahead of Ford’s Model T. Beyond his early achievement, King mentored automotive giants like Ford and Ransom Olds, contributing to countless developments that defined the industry.

His innovations, including the first successful V-8 engine, earned him more than 40 patents and a significant place in automotive history.
<h2>William Burton and Robert Humphreys – Innovators of Gasoline Production</h2>
Cars as we know them wouldn’t exist without gasoline. While early oil refineries produced gasoline as a byproduct of kerosene, the process was slow and inefficient until 1913 when Standard Oil’s <a href="https://lemelson.mit.edu/resources/william-burton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">William Burton</a> and Robert Humphreys invented “thermal cracking.” This process doubled gasoline output from crude oil, ensuring it could meet the growing demand of the automotive age.

Their innovation fueled (quite literally) the expansion of cars and highways across the world.

<span data-contrast="auto">First impressions are easy to make. One could argue that Nissan has turned the first impression into an art-form of its own. How else to explain the giddy thrill you got at the first sight of the delightfully diminutive <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-kicks-in-freehold-nj/">Nissan Kicks</a>, or the feeling of intimidation as you stared down the boldly refreshed <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/explore-a-new-frontier-in-2025/">Nissan Frontier</a>?</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">But while first impressions are intuitive, a solid reputation is something that can only be cultivated and maintained through hard work, tenacity, and care: core tenants that we value dearly at <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a>. </span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">So today, we join Nissan dealers everywhere in celebrating the national recognition bestowed upon us by <a href="https://reputation.com/press-room/new-report-reveals-reputation-management-now-a-critical-strategic-priority-across-the-automotive-sector/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the 2024-2025 Automotive Reputation Report</a>, where Nissan placed third amongst the top non-luxury automotive brands.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>
<h2><strong>Going for the Six-Peat</strong></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">This marks the sixth consecutive year Nissan has ranked among the top five brands, dating back to the inaugural Automative Reputation Report in 2019.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Nissan secured its third-place finish with a total Reputation Score of 705. Reputation Scores take three specific measurements: sentiment, engagement, and visibility, which are graded on a 100 to 1,000 scale.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">To make the report, feedback from 5.5 million car buyers was analyzed to gather general sentiment. The report zeroed in on the evolving influence of online reviews on car sales and the shared characteristics of top-performing dealerships. </span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Nissan also continues to flourish in drivers’ estimations thanks to their ongoing, customer-focused initiatives. This includes <a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/shopping-tools/shop-at-home.html?dcp=psn.58700007872273568&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiA4-y8BhC3ARIsAHmjC_F2z0D4m63WNaeYakXLtCOnLP907671yiPPPDI3_WqEd_OShyu9yt8aAitCEALw_wcB&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nissan@Home</a>, which you can take advantage of when you <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/service/schedule-service/">schedule your next service appointment with Raceway</a>.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">With its sixth straight appearance near the top of the Report, Nissan has established a crucial component of a long-lasting reputation: consistency. Nissan drivers continue to return because they've had great experiences in the past, and thanks to Nissan’s remarkable consistency, the confidence that their next car buying trip will be equally satisfying persists.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">That level of consistency extends to Nissan’s exemplary fleet of vehicles, reliably refreshed for the new year. Just check out the <a href="https://usa.nissannews.com/en-US/releases/all-new-2025-nissan-murano-pricing-starts-at-40470" target="_blank" rel="noopener">new-look 2025 Murano</a>, or the <a href="https://usa.nissannews.com/en-US/releases/2025-nissan-ariya-pricing-starts-at-39770" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2025 Nissan Ariya EV</a> and its now-standard wireless device charging.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

With the dawn of a new year, it’s time for fresh starts and new experiences—starting with your driving. Leave your bad habits in 2024 and commit to these five resolutions, designed to make you a safer, more responsible driver in 2025.
<h2 aria-level="2"><span data-contrast="none">Don’t Be the Highway Jerk</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;335559738&quot;:160,&quot;335559739&quot;:80}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">The holidays can be a stressful time. You’ll often feel you should be in three places at once, and although modern technology can make it </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">feel</span></i><span data-contrast="auto"> as though you are... at the end of the day, you’re still very much bound by your singular human body. As such, it can be easy to become more aggressive while driving around the holidays. And if you’re not careful, you can gradually slip into the worst type of driving persona: the highway jerk.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Take a moment and refamiliarize yourself with the basics of highway etiquette. Don’t lane cut, weaving in and out of traffic to shave (at most) a few minutes off your arrival time. Conversely, if you’re holding up cars in the leftmost lane, safely transition over to the right. Utilize your turn signals and avoid tailgating; the vehicle in front of you should always have ample room for braking.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2 aria-level="2"><span data-contrast="none">Put Your Phone Down</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;335559738&quot;:160,&quot;335559739&quot;:80}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">By now, most people have gotten pretty good at multi-tasking on their phones. That does </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">not</span></i><span data-contrast="auto"> mean it’s suddenly okay to text while driving. Take care of your playlist and navigational priorities before leaving and resolve to ignore any text messages or other notifications until you reach your destination. With today’s connectivity options and voice-assisted commands, there are fewer excuses than ever to be physically holding or looking at your phone while driving. This is one habit that everyone needs to leave in 2024.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2 aria-level="2"><span data-contrast="none">Know Your Limitations, Always</span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">In today’s high-speed world, knowing what you </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">can’t</span></i><span data-contrast="auto"> do is almost as valuable as what you can. In 2025, resolve to not drive when you’re tired or drowsy. According to </span><a href="https://www.thensf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Drowsy-Driving-Survey_2024.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">data from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety</span></a><span data-contrast="auto">, drowsy driving is responsible for 21% of all motor vehicle crashes resulting in a death. You probably don’t think of drowsy driving like you do drunk driving, but for the sleep deprived, the effects can be similar. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Likewise, continue to monitor your age and health as it pertains to your driving. Age slows us all down, and if physical limitations are starting to cause safety concerns when you’re behind the wheel, it’s time to take an honest look at what your driving future looks like and plan accordingly.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2 aria-level="2"><span data-contrast="none">Slow Down at Yellow Lights Instead of Speeding Up</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;335559738&quot;:160,&quot;335559739&quot;:80}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">As modern life accelerates, so too does the temptation to do so while driving. Recently, it seems the nature of the yellow light has shifted accordingly, with more drivers trying to beat out the red light in the waning moments of yellow’s turn. Unfortunately, </span><a href="https://www.iihs.org/topics/red-light-running" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">the NTHSA reported</span></a><span data-contrast="auto"> 1,149 people killed in crashes that involved red light running in 2022. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Life may be short, but it has the potential to get much shorter unless you reassess your approach to yellow lights. When the light turns yellow in 2025, try simply slowing down.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2 aria-level="2"><span data-contrast="none">Don't Forget Your Seatbelt</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;335559738&quot;:160,&quot;335559739&quot;:80}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">You’re another year older... but are you another year wiser? If this resolution isn’t a recurring feature on your list every year, the answer is no. The world may continue to change, but some things will never change; if you’re driving an automobile, wear a seatbelt. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The New Year is a time for discovery – be it personal discovery tied to your resolutions, or simply opening yourself up to new experiences in a new year. If you’re making it a mission to discover new frontiers in 2025, Nissan has the perfect truck to accompany you on your journey.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto"><a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-frontier-in-freehold-nj/">The 2025 Nissan Frontier</a> is one of the most versatile mid-size pickups on the market. Whereas most trucks are set on a fixed configuration, the updated Frontier has five trim levels that offer a variety of unique configurations. That makes it the ideal companion for your explorations and adventures.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Read on to learn more about the 2025 Nissan Frontier – available for you to drive off in today at <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a>.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">'Tiers of the Kingdom</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">In all, there are 17 possible configurations for the new Frontier, which once again comes in either a two-door King Cab or dour-door Crew Cab layout. But regardless of how you configure your truck, the Frontier is powered by the same reliable powertrain: a 310-hp naturally aspirated 3.8-liter V-6, along with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The V-6 enables the Frontier to make 310 hp and 281 lb.-ft. of torque. It also sees a notable increase in max towing from its 2024 model, jumping from 6,640 pounds to 7,150 pounds. </span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Visually, the Frontier has received a refresh for the new year that sacrifices none of its endearingly rugged styling. A new grille, front fascia, and bumper design adorn the exterior, and the truck has been sun-kissed by an available <a href="https://www.bignissannortholmsted.com/2025-nissan-frontier-afterburn-orange/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Afterburn Orange paint color</a>. </span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">And while this updated Frontier arrives with increased versatility, it retains one of its most alluring selling points: its affordable price tag. While the base model starts around $34,000, even the highest trims barely scratch the $50,000 mark.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">New Horizons from Within</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">You'll notice updates aplenty once you enter the 2025 Frontier. Beside the standard eight-inch touchscreen, the optional touchscreens have been enlarged, complementing the revised dashboard trim. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are both available, and every trim comes standard with a telescopic steering wheel.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The Frontier’s suite of standard safety features and driver assist technologies has also been updated. Included in the suite, you’ll find:</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

The winter months bring with them a host of challenges for drivers, from icy patches to snow-covered streets that make commuting more dangerous. Preparing your vehicle for these conditions is about much more than convenience; it’s a critical step in protecting both yourself and others on the road. Investing time in pre-winter maintenance now will help ensure your safety and extend the life of your vehicle through the colder season.
<h2>Winter Car Care: Your Key to Safer Roads</h2>
Winter driving conditions, such as black ice, snow, and slush, can turn even familiar roads into danger zones. In fact, snow and sleet were linked to 498 deadly accidents in 2022, with many more resulting in injuries. The importance of winter vehicle maintenance is clear—by preparing your car now, you can significantly reduce these risks and drive with greater confidence.

Think of winter car care as an essential shield against the unpredictable weather. Whether you're commuting, running errands, or taking a winter road trip, your safety depends on how well your vehicle is equipped to tackle the harsh elements.
<h2>The Importance of Winter Tires</h2>
If you’re serious about staying safe on winter roads, don’t overlook the importance of winter tires. While all-season tires are designed to handle a range of conditions, they can’t compete with the superior performance of snow tires when temperatures drop and roads become icy. Snow tires are built with softer rubber and more aggressive tread patterns, specifically designed to provide better grip and flexibility in freezing conditions.

This enhanced flexibility translates to improved traction, helping to prevent skidding and shorten stopping distances in snowy or icy weather. Winter tires also improve your overall handling, giving you more control in challenging winter conditions. Plus, using snow tires preserves the life of your all-season tires, saving you money by preventing unnecessary wear.
<h2>Steps for Pre-Winter Maintenance</h2>
Preparing your car for winter involves more than just installing snow tires. A comprehensive approach ensures that every aspect of your vehicle is winter-ready. Here’s a more detailed checklist to guide you:
<h3>Check Your Tires</h3>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Inspect Tread Depth:</strong> Use the quarter test to ensure your tires have <a href="https://www.nhtsa.gov/winter-driving-tips" target="_blank" rel="noopener">adequate tread</a> depth for safe driving. Insert a quarter into the grooves of the tire with George Washington’s head facing down. If you can see the top of his head, it’s time to replace your tires.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Monitor Tire Pressure:</strong> Winter weather causes tire pressure to drop, so regularly check your tires and keep them inflated to the manufacturer’s recommended pressure levels. Proper inflation improves fuel efficiency, traction, and overall performance.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Consider Snow Tires:</strong> Install snow tires for superior grip and stability on icy and snowy roads.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Test Your Battery</h3>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Understand the Impact of Cold Weather:</strong> Low temperatures can significantly reduce your <a href="https://www.progressive.com/lifelanes/winter-car-maintenance-tips/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">car battery’s power</a>, sometimes cutting its capacity in half.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Visit a Mechanic:</strong> Have a professional test your battery to ensure it’s in good condition. If your battery is old or weak, replace it before it leaves you stranded on a cold winter day.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Inspect and Replenish Fluids</h3>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Windshield Wiper Fluid:</strong> Replace standard wiper fluid with a winter-grade solution that can withstand freezing temperatures and keep your windshield clear.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Coolant:</strong> Ensure your coolant is at the correct level and has the proper antifreeze-to-water ratio to prevent freezing and overheating.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Oil:</strong> Check your oil and consider switching to a winter-grade oil if recommended for your vehicle. Cold weather affects oil viscosity, so the right oil helps your engine perform efficiently.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Upgrade Your Wipers</h3>
Visibility is crucial during winter storms. Regular <a href="https://www.statefarm.com/simple-insights/auto-and-vehicles/important-winter-car-care-tips" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wiper blades</a> may not perform well in heavy snow or ice, so consider upgrading to heavy-duty winter wiper blades. These are designed to handle harsh conditions, clearing your windshield more effectively and improving visibility.
<h3>Pack an Emergency Kit</h3>
Even with the best preparation, winter weather can be unpredictable. Be ready for emergencies by packing a winter survival kit in your car. Include the following essentials:
<ul>
 	<li>A small snow shovel</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Warm blankets or thermal emergency blankets</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Flares or reflective triangles for visibility</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Jumper cables or a portable jump starter</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Extra windshield wiper fluid</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Non-perishable snacks and bottled water</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>A flashlight with extra batteries</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>A first aid kit</li>
</ul>
Having these items on hand can make a significant difference if you find yourself stranded or in an emergency situation.
<h2>Drive Confidently This Winter</h2>
Winter driving doesn’t have to be stressful. By taking the necessary steps to prepare your vehicle, you can navigate snowy, icy roads with confidence. From installing snow tires to packing an emergency kit, every measure you take contributes to a safer, smoother driving experience.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-4822" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/11/iStock-1467421699-1024x683.jpg" alt="Electric crossover/SUV Nissan Ariya on a parking. The Ariya was introduced in July 2020 as the first battery electric SUV produced by Nissan." width="1024" height="683" />

Nissan solidifies its reputation for value and reliability, especially in certified pre-owned vehicles, with six wins at the 12th annual Vincentric Best Certified Pre-Owned Value in America Awards. These awards showcase Nissan's commitment to performance, affordability, and peace of mind. Here's why Nissan's Certified Pre-Owned program is a top pick for car shoppers.
<h2>What Makes the Vincentric Award Significant?</h2>
Winning the <a href="https://vincentric.com/Home/Best-Value-Awards/2025-Best-Value-in-America/2025-Best-CPO-Value-in-America-Winners-List" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vincentric Best Certified Pre-Owned Value in America</a> award is a major achievement. These awards are based on a detailed analysis of total cost of ownership (TCO) factors like depreciation, taxes, financing, fuel, insurance, maintenance, opportunity cost, and repairs, recognizing only the best-value vehicles.

This award focuses on real-world value. Vincentric evaluates data from all 50 states and Washington, D.C., considering mileage, market prices, and ownership costs. For pre-owned buyers, these awards reliably identify vehicles with <a href="https://usa.nissannews.com/en-US/releases/nissan-earns-six-vincentric-best-certified-pre-owned-cpo-value-in-america-awards" target="_blank" rel="noopener">great long-term value</a>.

Nissan's success in several categories highlights its ability to offer vehicles with lower ownership costs without sacrificing quality or innovation, showing Nissan understands what today's buyers want in a pre-owned vehicle.
<h2>The Award-Winning Lineup</h2>
Nissan didn’t just win once — it earned recognition across two brand-level categories and four individual model segments:

<strong>Brand Awards</strong>
<ol>
 	<li><strong>Best CPO Value in America – SUV Brand</strong></li>
</ol>
<ol>
 	<li><strong>Best CPO Value in America – Passenger Car Brand</strong> (<em>Second Win</em>)</li>
</ol>
<strong>Model-Level Winners</strong>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Nissan Versa</strong> – Subcompact Car Segment (<em>Third Win</em>)</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Nissan Z</strong> – Sports Car Segment</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Nissan Kicks</strong> – Subcompact SUV Segment (<em>Second Win</em>)</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Nissan Ariya</strong> – Compact SUV Segment</li>
</ul>
Additional honors went to the Nissan LEAF and Nissan TITAN for having the lowest total cost of ownership in their classes. From fuel-efficient sedans to exciting sports cars and versatile SUVs, Nissan’s lineup <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/us-news--world-report-announces-the-2025-best-vehicle-brand-and-best-cpo-program-awards-302312300.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">meets a wide range of customer preferences</a>, offering bold designs, cutting-edge electric vehicles, and reliable performance. Judy Wheeler, Vice President of Nissan Sales &amp; Regional Operations, said, “Recognition across multiple segments shows Nissan's commitment to affordability and quality throughout the vehicle lifecycle.”
<h2>Why Nissan’s Certified Pre-Owned Program Stands Out</h2>
Nissan’s success centers on its <a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/shopping-tools/certified-pre-owned.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Certified Pre-Owned program</a>, removing the guesswork from buying a used vehicle. Whether you're looking for a reliable commuter or an eco-friendly EV, Nissan offers flexibility, quality assurance, and standout benefits to ensure confidence in every purchase.
<h3>Three Flexible CPO Options</h3>
Nissan’s Certified Pre-Owned program offers three distinct pathways tailored to customer needs:
<ol>
 	<li><strong>Nissan Certified</strong></li>
</ol>
The program offers a 7-year/100,000-mile limited warranty, whichever comes first, and includes a comprehensive 167-point inspection. It also provides one-year prepaid maintenance, or until the first 15,000 miles. This is available for Nissan gas-powered models up to 6 years old with fewer than 80,000 miles.
<ol>
 	<li><strong>EV Certified</strong></li>
</ol>
The program offers a 7-year/100,000-mile limited warranty, whichever comes first, along with a rigorous 139-point inspection specific to electric vehicles. It includes one year of prepaid maintenance or the first 15,000 miles. This offer is available exclusively for 100% electric Nissan models up to 6 years old with fewer than 80,000 miles.
<ol>
 	<li><strong>Certified Select</strong></li>
</ol>
This service is designed for older vehicles, specifically those up to 10 years old and non-Nissan models. It includes a 6-month/6,000-mile limited warranty, whichever comes first, and an 84-point inspection. Additionally, it offers a one-time complimentary maintenance visit.
<h3>Standard Benefits Across All CPO Options</h3>
Regardless of which option you choose, all Nissan CPO vehicles come with these industry-leading benefits:
<ul>
 	<li>Special financing offers on select vehicles</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Free CARFAX® Vehicle History Report</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>24/7 roadside assistance (coverage includes towing and rental reimbursement)</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Guaranteed trade-in value</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Travel interruption coverage when more than 100 miles from home</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>90-day SiriusXM® trial</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Prepaid maintenance options for continued peace of mind</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>Transferrable warranty, perfect for future resale value</li>
</ul>
This attention to detail demonstrates why Nissan continues to lead the pack when it comes to customer-first policies.

<span data-contrast="auto">It’s almost Halloween in New Jersey – when the cooler weather can leave your vehicle susceptible to seasonal trickery. Dead batteries, deflated tires, obstructed windshields covered in fallen leaves… these are but a few of the automotive scares waiting to jump out at you during this time of year.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Fortunately, Raceway Nissan of Freehold has five tricks to help you get through Halloween and beyond. Together, they add up to an affordable treat for your vehicle.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Make Washing Your Vehicle a Regular Habit</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
Keeping your car clean during the dry autumn months is about more than just looks. Dirt, grime, and other contaminants can form a toxic brew that damages more than your paint job. If left unchecked, they can corrode vulnerable spots like the undercarriage. Sticking to a regular cleaning routine helps prevent these pesky materials from sneaking in.

Make it a point to wash your car often this fall, but don’t forget to check under the hood for signs of corrosion on the engine and battery. Inside, safeguard your floor mats with a spray or clear vinyl cover, as seasonal debris can wear them out fast. Give your mats a vacuum every time you wash your car, and tackle any tough stains with some soapy water. After all, your passengers shouldn’t fear getting in—let’s leave the scares for Halloween!
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Tread Lightly</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
Whenever possible, think about minimizing the items you keep in your vehicle’s storage space. Carrying large, heavy loads can put extra strain on your tires, affecting tire pressure and ultimately leading to decreased fuel efficiency—even in a spacious ride like the <a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/vehicles/crossovers-suvs/pathfinder.html?dcp=psn.58700008604893090&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwsoe5BhDiARIsAOXVoUuJbXEMgcAgps3umSI9G9qZ9T3opwgyiO3c9pP7PaeE4qQlYhMeHXMaAo15EALw_wcB&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2025 Nissan Pathfinder</a>. Keep in mind that tire pressure naturally drops faster in winter; for every ten-degree decrease in temperature, you might lose about one <a href="https://www.performancelexusnorthernkentucky.com/winter-tire-pressure-how-temperature-affects-tire-inflation/#:~:text=When%20the%20temperature%20is%20high,10%20degrees%20the%20temperature%20lowers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PSI</a>.

That said, some essentials are a must all year round: a first-aid kit, antifreeze, and jumper cables, to name a few. But this winter, remember that your trunk isn’t the best place for your air conditioner!
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Stay Hydrated</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
As humans, we understand that staying hydrated is vital for our survival. But did you know your vehicle also needs its own set of fluids to run like a dream? It’s essential to ensure it never goes dry and avoid a nightmare on any street!

Make it a monthly ritual to check and top off all the key fluids—engine oil, power steering fluid, transmission fluid, and brake fluid. And don’t overlook your windshield washer fluid, especially before hitting the road for a long trip or as winter weather approaches. And speaking of winter...
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Change Your Blades</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
Keeping your visibility clear should be a top priority during winter. After the easy days of summer, it’s easy to forget how quickly our windshields can become obstructed when colder weather hits. Don’t let a sudden snow squall catch you off guard with ineffective wiper blades.

Even if your blades seem to work well at the start of the season, the cooler temperatures can lead to corrosion over time. Check the rubber strips on your blades and wipe them clean. Make sure to remove any branches, leaves, or other autumn debris from the windshield area. It’s a good idea to replace your wiper blades every six to twelve months—so why not use Halloween as a reminder to do it annually?

<span data-contrast="auto">Your favorite mid-size crossover is getting a long-overdue makeover. For the first time in a decade, the Nissan Murano has been fully refreshed for the 2025 model year. The Murano’s smooth redesign is immediately apparent, but one look under the hood tells us that this isn’t just a cosmetic upgrade.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Today, <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a> – your home of the Zero-Dollar Down Lease – previews the 2025 Nissan Murano.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">Just Like the Ocean, Under the Moon</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="none">Set to go on sale early next year, <a href="https://usa.nissannews.com/en-US/releases/2025-nissan-murano-press-kit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the 2025 Nissan Murano</a> sees the first major upgrade for the two-row SUV since its 2015 model year. Continuing the style-first approach of previous generations, the Murano’s new shape is smooth and rounded, giving it a new level of sleekness.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> Its popular "deep ocean blue" color, in particular, helps the new Murano really pop.</span>

<span data-contrast="none">Fresh details abound, from ultra-thin “Crystal Cube” LED headlights integrated into the grille lines to an LED taillight bar that runs the width of the rear end. Nissan has even hidden the exhaust tips and rear wiper to better emphasize the smooth exterior.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="none">But the new Murano unveils its biggest changes beneath the hood. Gone is the divisive continuously variable transmission and V-6 combo, replaced by a turbo 2.0-liter inline-four and nine-speed automatic transmission. With this configuration, the Murano produces 241 horsepower and 261 pound-feet of torque, with a projected zero-to-60 time in the 7-8 second range.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">The Superior Motion That I Get from You</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="none">In terms of fuel economy, the Murano still opts to forego a hybrid variant, so expect the new Murano’s EPA combined rating to look similar to past models. But while fuel efficiency doesn’t necessarily improve, the smoothness of your ride certainly will, thanks to the Murano’s upgraded shock absorbers.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="none">Also new is support for both ProPilot Assist and ProPilot Assist 1.1. These systems – part of Nissan’s Safety Shield 360 suite of active and passive driver aids – bundle adaptive cruise control with lane centering. ProPilot Assist 1.1 includes the added feature of reading routes via the navigation system and automatically slowing down for detected curves.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="none">The standard dual 12.3-inch displays are seamlessly integrated into the Murano’s soft surroundings. Murano Glass, a unique dashboard finisher, incorporates color-shift graphics and textures that play with light, creating a lighting effect that conjures glassworks. There are touch-activated climate controls and push-button shifters free up central console space for storage, cup holders, and the standard wireless phone charging pad.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">Give Me Your Heart, Make It Real</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="none">The redesigned 2025 Nissan Murano is expected to hit dealerships in early 2025. Pricing will be announced closer to the mid-size SUV going on sale, but the base model of the outgoing Murano starts just north of $40,000.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">It’s been a hit-or-miss start to an already wild football season here in the Tri-State area. The Giants’ offense finally found some rhythm (i.e., found Malik Nabers) as the G-Men beat Cleveland for their first win. Yet fans are mostly left wishing quarterback prospect Arch Manning was eligible for the upcoming 2025 draft. Meanwhile, the Eagles are 2-1 after slowing down New Orleans</span><span data-contrast="auto">, though head coach Nick Sirianni’s seat remains hotter than one of </span><a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/stylish/pictures/kansa-city-chiefs-travis-kelce-is-a-fashion-icon-see-his-style-evolution-in-photos/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">Travis Kelce’s pregame fits.</span></a><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">But the ongoing drama of the NFL season takes a back seat when it's time to prepare your tailgate. Tailgating, a transcendent sporting experience that exists outside of time and space, doesn't care about your "official game results." It's only concerned with grilling, the occasional backyard game, and more grilling. But much like a head coach must spend the week before gameday crafting a gameplan, you need to prepare ahead of time to pull off the optimal tailgate.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Pull up to your next tailgate in style with these five pro tailgating tips from <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a>, your home of the zero dollar down lease deal.</span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">1. Make a Master Itinerary For the Season</span></b></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">One of the unwritten rules of tailgating is that once you arrive, there’s no leaving early. That means no backtracking home, vacating your ideal spot because you left the hot dog buns sitting on your kitchen counter. </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Instead, make a detailed checklist of everything you need to bring days in advance. Ideally, this should serve as an evergreen itinerary for every gameday this season. Make sure you have the essentials: a pop-up canopy, enough folding chairs for everyone, and weather-appropriate clothing. Along with the grill, don't forget disposable utensils, plates, napkins and cups. Lastly, don't forget to pack your Nissan with backyard games and other entertainment: cornhole tables, frisbees, boardgames, etc.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Now that you have everything you need, it’s time to get down to why you're really here: the food.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">2. Don’t Go Off-Menu</span></b></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">The best quarterbacks in the league – your Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen – are </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cm4Abimn-aY" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">master improvisers</span></a><span data-contrast="auto">, able to influence plays on the fly depending on what defenses are giving them. But when subpar or even league-average quarterbacks attempt to interject their own flair into the gameplan, </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDw8vdKcgJc" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">it tends to go poorly</span></a><span data-contrast="auto">.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Maybe you’re the Patrick Mahomes of tailgating. That’s great. But we’re going to assume that since you’re reading this blog, that’s not the case. Thus, it’s better to stick to the script once you've finalized your menu. Plan what you’re going to cook ahead of time, stocking up on all necessary ingredients, condiments, and utensils. And don’t put off buying your food until gameday. If they're out of that spicy mustard you superstitiously eat every Sunday, you'll have no one to blame but yourself.</span>

<span data-contrast="auto">If you’re grilling – and we hope that you’re grilling – make sure it's firing up properly before departing. Experienced tailgaters should keep the grill in action throughout the morning. Your fellow tailgaters will appreciate fresh food being served around the clock, as opposed to you unceremoniously dumping all the meat on the grill at once. Plus, the continuous smoke and its accompanying aroma will help keep the good vibes going, reminding passers-by where the real party’s at.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Just don’t make your tailgate a total sausage fest. Cater to everyone in your party by preparing a healthy dose of snacks and side dishes – corn, beans, casseroles, veggies, mac and cheese, etc. This provides needed variety and keeps the herbivores in your party content.</span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">3. Find the Right Spot</span></b></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">Knowing where to set up camp is truly half the tailgate battle. Arrive as early as possible, keeping in mind that you absolutely cannot start any tailgate </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">too</span></i><span data-contrast="auto"> early. If you’re heading to an arena that doesn’t open their parking grounds until gates open, aim to arrive at least an hour prior to that time. Anticipation, after all, will only heighten the tailgating experience. (And there are worse ways to spend an idle hour than inside <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-kicks-in-freehold-nj/">the newest Nissan Kicks</a></span><span data-contrast="auto">.) If you’re driving an electric vehicle, like <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-ariya-in-freehold-nj/">the Nissan Ariya</a>,</span><span data-contrast="auto"> make sure it’s fully charged beforehand.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Once you’ve arrived at the perfect spot – not too far from the stadium, but not close enough that fans are constantly walking through your space – it’s time to set up camp. Take care of larger fixtures first, such as the pop-up canopy. Then position the grill in a spot that’s both unobtrusive and at the center of attention. (Real grillmasters know this is possible.)</span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">4. Visuals Matter</span></b></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">They say it’s not whether you win or lose, but how good you look playing that matters. Hardcore fans might quibble with this philosophy, but the premise is sound. For a good tailgating game-within-a-game, try making your tailgating spot the envy of the parking lot. If your budget allows it, go all out with official team canopies, flags, and <a href="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:810/0*3wr66vhJSVBFLeNf.jpeg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">large, inflatable players</a>. If you’re heading up to Buffalo, bring <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mvDQwgmVGM" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a couple tables to smash</a>. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">And this should go without saying, but make sure you look the part. This doesn’t mean you have to break the bank on a new jersey from the official team merchandise store, but at the very least, don’t be the one blue shirt in a sea of green.</span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">5. Be Respectful &amp; Responsible</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">Your tailgate might be your sacred pre-game space, but that doesn’t give you free reign to do whatever you please. Respect the rules of the grounds you’re visiting, including drink regulations. If your tailgate spot doesn’t permit outsider alcohol, that’s something you should be prepared for before arriving. Keep your space neat and tidy, dispose of all garbage immediately before the wind can take it, and always leave your spot in the same condition you found it.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">That level of respect should extend to your fellow tailgaters. A tailgate is essentially a living thing, with 90% of its body composed of vibes. Share in your spirit and enthusiasm, invite your neighbors over, and generally treat the tailgate like the communal experience it’s meant to be.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">You are now officially over-prepared to tailgate. All that’s left is to make sure your ride to the tailgate is in proper shape.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-4481 aligncenter" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/09/2025NissanArmada-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" />

<span data-contrast="auto">We already know the Nissan Armada is a large vehicle. Armadas, after all, are inherently large, lest they risk being mistaken for a mere flotilla. But like war itself, it's difficult to comprehend the sheer scale of the Nissan Armada unless you experience it up close and personal.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">This is all to emphasize that when we say <a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/vehicles/future-concept/2025-armada.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the 2025 Nissan Armada</a> is the most powerful edition of Nissan’s full-size SUV yet, we’re not messing around. The new Armada boasts a new, twin-turbo V-6 engine, upgraded towing and torque, and its first ever PRO-4X grade. It all adds up to form the most well-equipped Armada yet. </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Today, <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a> takes an in-depth look at Nissan’s latest, forthcoming behemoth.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Big Changes</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">The Armada has been on a never-ending quest to level up ever since it hit the scene in 2003, when it was built on the bones of the also-imposing Nissan Titan. The <a href="https://usa.nissannews.com/en-US/releases/unprecedented-capability-outstanding-design-and-advanced-technologies-the-all-new-2025-nissan-armada-is-your-fortress-to-conquer-the-world" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2025 Nissan Armada</a> will officially kick off the SUV’s third generation, and as you might expect, it’s going even bigger to celebrate the occasion.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">After conquering all manners of paved roads, the 2025 Armada adds new off-road capabilities thanks to its first PRO-4X grade. That’s right – the already-intimidating Armada has developed an adventurous spirit, as reflected through its bold new design. With all-terrain tires, an increased approach angle, underbody skid plates, and Adaptive Electronic Air Suspension, the Armada reaches unprecedented levels of versatility.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Also entering the fray is the Armada’s first twin-turbo V6. The direct-injected 3.5-liter V6 engine raises the Armada’s towing capacity to an eye-opening 8,500 pounds. Coupled with a standard 9-speed automatic transmission and world-class horsepower numbers, it’s best to make way – like, a </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">lot</span></i><span data-contrast="auto"> of way – when the new Armada rolls through.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Equipping the Armada</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">The 2025 Armada isn’t being sent off to battle without being stocked with the latest tech provisions. It becomes the latest Nissan to adapt the available ProPILOT Assist 2.1, the company’s most advanced hands-off assistance technology. Additionally, Nissan Safety Shield</span><a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/safety-shield.html"><span data-contrast="auto">®</span> </a><span data-contrast="auto">360 comes standard on every Armada model.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">And like any respectable military vehicle, the Armada is able to survey its surroundings from all conceivable angles. This is thanks to Nissan’s best complement of camera assistance, including 3D Around View</span><a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/safety-shield.html"><span data-contrast="auto">®</span></a><span data-contrast="auto"> Monitor, Front Wide View, and Invisible Hood View. No more driving around in your Armada fighting the temptation to run over every obstacle in your path – now you’ll actually be able to see </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">through</span></i><span data-contrast="auto"> them.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Further additions to the third-generation Armada include:</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

Labor Day's importance goes beyond a day off or the unofficial end of summer. It honors American workers' social and economic achievements, recognizing their contributions to the nation's strength, prosperity, and welfare. But how did this important holiday begin?
<h2>The Origins of Labor Day</h2>
Labor Day began in the late <a href="https://www.dol.gov/general/laborday/history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">19th century</a> when labor activists demanded better working conditions, fair wages, and reasonable hours. As the labor movement grew, there were calls for a holiday to honor workers. Before it became a federal holiday, Labor Day was recognized by labor activists and some states. The first celebration was in New York City on September 5, 1882, organized by the Central Labor Union and the Knights of Labor, featuring a parade of about 10,000 workers. This success led to another celebration on September 5, 1883, prompting city ordinances in 1885 and 1886. Oregon officially recognized Labor Day on February 21, 1887, followed by Colorado, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York by year's end. By 1894, 23 states had adopted Labor Day.

Federal recognition came during a turbulent time in <a href="https://www.history.com/topics/holidays/labor-day-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">American labor history</a>. In 1894, Pullman Palace Car Company workers struck over wage cuts and high rents in the company town near Chicago. The strike turned violent, and when President Grover Cleveland sent federal troops to quell it, over 12 workers died. To mend ties with labor, President Cleveland signed a law making <a href="https://www.britannica.com/topic/Labor-Day">Labor Day a federal holiday</a> on June 28, 1894, officially marking the first Monday in September as a national holiday for American workers.
<h2>Who Proposed Labor Day?</h2>
The origins of who first proposed Labor Day are somewhat murky. Two names often emerge in historical records: Peter J. McGuire and Matthew Maguire. Peter J. McGuire was the general secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and a co-founder of the American Federation of Labor. He suggested setting aside a day to honor those "who from rude nature have delved and carved all the grandeur we behold." On the other hand, Matthew Maguire, a machinist and later the secretary of Local 344 of the International Association of Machinists in Paterson, New Jersey, is believed by many to have proposed the holiday in 1882 while serving as secretary of the <a href="https://apnews.com/article/labor-day-history-what-to-know-1e20a900398e9c767cef82f7fb8f7728" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Central Labor Union</a> in New York. Recent research supports this claim, and according to the New Jersey Historical Society, after President Cleveland signed the law creating Labor Day, the Paterson Morning Call credited Matthew Maguire as the true founder. Regardless of who proposed it, both McGuire and Maguire were present at the first Labor Day parade in New York City in 1882.
<h2>Evolution of Labor Day and Modern-Day Celebrations</h2>
Labor Day's early celebrations included street parades to showcase the strength and unity of <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/labor-day-history-113064551" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trade and labor organizations</a>, often followed by festivals for workers and their families. Over time, speeches by labor leaders became central, reinforcing the holiday's importance. In 1909, the American Federation of Labor designated the Sunday before Labor Day as "Labor Sunday," focusing on the spiritual and educational aspects of the labor movement. Today, Labor Day is celebrated with parades, barbecues, and family gatherings, marking the end of summer, back-to-school shopping, and major sales. While the holiday's activist roots aren't always the focus, recent years have seen renewed interest in labor organizing, especially among millennials and Gen Z workers. For many, Labor Day reflects on the achievements of <a href="https://guides.loc.gov/chronicling-america-labor-day" target="_blank" rel="noopener">American workers</a> and the ongoing push for fair labor practices, whether through parades, community events, or relaxing with loved ones.
<h2>Honoring a Legacy</h2>
Labor Day is more than just a long weekend; it's a tribute to the strength, resilience, and contributions of American workers. From its origins in the labor movements of the 19th century to its current status as a national holiday, Labor Day reminds us of the importance of fair labor practices and ongoing efforts to improve working conditions for all.

<span data-contrast="none">Becoming a new parent comes with plenty of challenges: mysterious health complications in the newborn, compromised sleep schedules, and a burgeoning expense list are just a few that come to mind. But Newsweek is offering one suggestion that might help new parents: </span><a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/vehicles/crossovers-suvs/rogue.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">the 2024 Nissan Rogue.</span></a><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="none">Nissan’s flagship SUV was </span><a href="https://usa.nissannews.com/en-US/releases/2024-nissan-rogue-is-a-top-pick-for-new-parents-in-2024-newsweek-autos-awards" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">named a Top Pick in the New Parents category in the 2024 Newsweek Auto Awards</span></a><span data-contrast="none">.

The Nissan Rogue was praised for coming standard with a laundry list of driver assist and safety technology features. The publication also praised the Rogue’s stellar crash test results, while noting how beneficial its motion-activated liftgate can be for overwhelmed parents.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="none">It certainly didn’t hurt that the Rogue received an alluring visual refresh for its 2024 model year. It also fully implemented the convenient Google built-in system, ensuring fluid connectivity within the SUV. The forthcoming </span><a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/vehicles/future-concept/rogue-rock-creek.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">2025 Nissan Rogue</span></a><span data-contrast="none"> will expand on that package, offering available ProPILOT Assist 2.1, which allows drivers to go hands-free on the freeway.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="none">Peace of mind is perhaps the most valuable commodity a new parent can ask for, and the Nissan Rogue offers it in abundance. The 2024 Rogue comes with the most standard safety features in its class. </span><a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/safety-shield.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">Nissan Safety Shield® 360</span></a><span data-contrast="none"> leads the safety charge, complemented by the Rogue’s now-available all-wheel drive. The Rogue also features standard Rear Door Alert, a lifesaver of a feature that alerts parents when items (or, uh, children) are left forgotten in the backseat.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="none">New families also require plenty of space to operate, and the Rogue is one of the most spacious SUVs in its class. The Rogue offers up to 36.5 cubic feet of cargo space behind its second row, with space expanding to as much as 74.1 cubic feet with the second row folded. Meanwhile, the Rogue’s Divide-N-Hide storage system keeps items from falling into the wrong (tiny) hands.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

August is National Dog Month, and there’s no better way to celebrate than by hitting the road with your furry friend! Traveling with your dog can be a fantastic adventure, but it does require some thoughtful planning to ensure their comfort and safety. Whether you’re embarking on a cross-country journey or just a weekend escape, here are some tips for traveling with your dog and why an SUV might be the ideal vehicle for your four-legged companion.
<h2>Comfort Matters</h2>
<h3>Spacious Cargo Area</h3>
One of the most important aspects of traveling with a dog is ensuring they have <a href="https://petmyride.com/blogs/blog/how-to-travel-with-dog-in-suv">enough space</a> to be comfortable. SUVs excel in this area, offering ample cargo space that can accommodate even the largest of dogs. With a roomy back area, your dog can stretch out and relax during the drive.
<h3>Temperature Control</h3>
Keeping your dog comfortable also means keeping them cool or warm, depending on the weather. Many modern SUVs come equipped with advanced climate control systems that ensure the back area is just as comfortable as the front seats.
<h3>Pet Travel Accessories</h3>
Consider investing in some pet travel accessories to make the trip even more comfortable. Cargo space liners, for example, can protect your vehicle from fur and muddy paws while providing a non-slip surface for your dog to lie on. When in doubt, a comfy and safe <a href="https://www.hillspet.com/dog-care/routine-care/traveling-with-dog-in-car?lightboxfired=true">pet crate</a> is a great option that can be fastened in an SUV’s cargo space easily.
<h2>Safety First</h2>
<h3>Securing Your Dog</h3>
<a href="https://www.progressive.com/lifelanes/on-the-road/pet-safety-in-cars/">Safety</a> should always be a top priority when traveling with your dog. Many SUVs come with features like tie-down hooks where you can secure a pet carrier or use a seatbelt harness to keep your dog safe in case of sudden stops.
<h3>Emergency Kit</h3>
Always keep an emergency kit that includes a first aid kit, extra water, food, and a leash. Knowing you and your pup are prepared for any situation will help make your trip more peaceful.
<h3>Keeping Your Dog Happy and Healthy</h3>
When planning your route, include <a href="https://www.humanesociety.org/resources/travel-safely-your-pet-car-airplane-ship-or-train">regular stops</a> to let your dog stretch their legs and relieve themselves. Dog-friendly rest areas or parks are perfect for these breaks, so research the best spots along your journey. Don’t forget to bring plenty of water and snacks for your dog. Portable water bowls and food containers can be crucial during these pit stops.
<h2>Why an SUV is Perfect for Dog Owners</h2>
<h3>Space and Comfort</h3>
The spacious cargo area in SUVs provides plenty of room for your dog to move around comfortably, which is especially important for larger breeds that need more space to lie down. Investing in a cargo space dog liner can help keep your vehicle clean while offering added comfort for your furry friend. These liners are easy to clean and provide a <a href="https://www.animalhumanesociety.org/resource/safest-way-travel-dogs">non-slip surface</a>, making them a practical addition to your travel gear.

Traveling with your dog can be an enjoyable experience for both of you, provided you take the necessary steps to ensure their comfort and safety. From spacious cargo areas to advanced climate control systems, SUVs offer the perfect solution for dog owners looking to hit the road.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3947 aligncenter" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/06/NissanZHeritage.jpg" alt="" width="928" height="619" />

<span data-contrast="auto">The <a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/vehicles/future-concept/nissan-z-heritage-edition.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2024 Nissan Z Heritage Edition</a> is what nostalgia done right looks like.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">It’s been 55 years since Nissan – then Datsun – launched the <a href="https://www.nissan-global.com/EN/HERITAGE_COLLECTION/datsun_240z_061.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Datsun 240Z</a>, the sports car that was ostensibly created to compete with the <a href="https://global.yamaha-motor.com/stories/history/stories/0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Toyota 2000GT</a>. Now, the Datsun 240Z finally gets a spiritual successor that also serves as an homage in the 2024 Nissan Z Heritage Edition.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">A Lasting Legacy</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">The sports car that began as the Datsun 240Z before ending up as simply “Z” has enjoyed </span><a href="https://www.motortrend.com/features/nissan-z-car-history-generations-specifications-2/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">a storied history</span></a><span data-contrast="auto">. The 24OZ was initially sold in four unofficial series from 1969 – 1973. The 260Z came along in 1974, bumping engine displacement to 2.6 liters. The more emissions-friendly 280Z launched soon after and continued in both short- and long-wheelbase models until 1978. In all, the first generation Z car moved over 520,000 units.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">For the 1979 model year, the 280ZX entered production. More luxury-focused and heavier than the S30 sports cars it replaced, the 280ZX instead evoked a grand touring car. Comfort was prioritized over road feel – at least until the 280ZX Turbo variant hit the scene in 1981. A revised rear suspension offered sportier handling, and brand-new, five-speed manual transmission made dust of the competition. When production on the Z’s second generation halted in 1983, an additional 331,000 cars had been sold.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The Z would continue to develop and metamorphosize through the years, from the 1984 300ZX becoming the first Z car to display the Nissan/Datsun badge, to the 50</span><span data-contrast="auto">th</span><span data-contrast="auto"> Anniversary 370Z that hit dealerships in 2019. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">The Lost City of Z</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">Enter the 2024 Nissan Z Heritage Edition, which begins with the Performance trim of the Z. Available with either six-speed manual or nine-speed automatic transmission, the newest Z carries a 400 hp twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6. Each Z Heritage also comes with the Nissan Performance brake package.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The Z Heritage's main selling point is its throwback body, with a vivid orange paint reminiscent of the original S30. The split front grille is similarly evocative of the old S30 nose, while the 19-inch alloy wheels feel like a callback to the classic Watanabe wheels associated with Nissan racing. A set of black decals line the top of the body and the lower sides, framing a Z emblem that denotes the Heritage Edition.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Inside, the setup of the Z’s cabin largely remains unchanged from the <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/2023-nissan-z/">2023 Nissan Z</a>, with the two-door coupe leaving no room for a back seat. But the components have been modernized, with new leather upholstery, power-adjustable seats, and dual-zone climate control all available. Also new? The 8.0-inch infotainment display, which complements a 12.3-inch digital gauge display.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Catching Some Z’s</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">The new 2024 Nissan Z and its Heritage Edition should hit dealerships this summer. Until then, <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a> is Monmouth County’s home for all things Nissan.

<span data-contrast="auto">Our vehicles have a unique way of communicating with us. Their engines and other internal components make distinct sounds when something is amiss – cries for help that you learn to recognize over time. However, the warning lights that adorn your dashboard remain your vehicle’s most direct, trustworthy method of communication.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">A flashing light on your dashboard or near your speedometer requires immediate attention. Courtesy of <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a>, here’s a guide to what the most crucial dashboard warning lights are indicating, and the steps you should take when they become active.</p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>Check Engine</strong></h2>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">Let's kick off with the notorious Check Engine light – the universal signal that a migraine is imminent. Generally represented by an illuminated engine symbol, this alert is inherently disconcerting, as it could point to a myriad of potential issues. You could be facing a minor issue such as a loose fuel cap or a thornier problem, like compression loss.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">If the Check Engine light appears while driving – but your car is still performing normally, making no unusual noises – any immediate danger is unlikely. Continue driving, and once you get home, reach out to our <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/service/department/">Service Center</a>. We’ll inspect your Nissan, identify the issue, and address it swiftly and professionally.</p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>Battery Alert</strong></h2>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">The battery alert icon on your dashboard is not to be taken lightly. It's there to tell you that your vehicle's battery is either losing charge or completely drained. Many people only notice this symbol when their car fails to start, accompanied by the unnerving whirring and clicking of a powerless engine. However, even if your car starts without a hitch, you should still address the battery light, as it could signal a persistent battery problem. Before a weekend trip to <a href="https://www.sixflags.com/greatadventure" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Six Flags</a> in <a href="https://www.jacksontwpnj.net/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jackson</a>, ensure your vehicle gets a thorough check-up to detect any issues with the electrical systems or wiring. Rest assured, the certified professionals at Raceway Nissan of Freehold are thoroughly prepared to pinpoint and remedy <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/batteries/">any issues with your Nissan's battery</a>.</p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>Oil Change/Oil Pressure Warnings</strong></h2>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">These dual indicators inform you about the condition of your Kia’s oil. Both are quite straightforward: the oil pressure alert typically signifies the sensor of your oil pressure sender requires a replacement (not an expensive repair), whereas the oil service light simply indicates it’s time for an oil change. Modern engines recommend <a href="https://www.aaa.com/autorepair/articles/How-Often-Should-You-Change-Engine-Oil" target="_blank" rel="noopener">oil change intervals of 5,000 to 7,500 miles</a>. If the oil service light coincides with your regular maintenance cycle, bring your Nissan to Raceway and let us carry out a <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/oil-change/">speedy, hassle-free oil change</a>.</p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>Tire Pressure Alert</strong></h2>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">Maintaining the correct PSI levels in your tires is crucial for optimal fuel economy. If your tires are under-inflated, the inefficient mileage quickly accumulates - notably during lengthy drives. Moreover, driving with under-inflated tires can cause potential tire damage. Inflate your tires to the recommended PSI levels (usually displayed on a sticker located near the foot of the driver's door). If the warning light persists, Raceway Nissan of Freehold is here to help you <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/tires/">procure a perfect new set of tires.</a></p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>Coolant Temperature</strong></h2>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">If this light (resembling a red thermometer) flashes on your dashboard, it's a signal that your car is facing overheating, requiring your immediate attention. Make your safety a priority and pull over at once, giving your engine the chance to cool down. While it does, evaluate your current distance from our Service Center. <span data-contrast="auto">If you’re within 15 minutes of us – in <a href="https://englishtownnj.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Englishtown</a>, say, or <a href="https://www.marlboro-nj.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marlboro</a> – you can probably make it. But carefully consider whether your vehicle can realistically make it from as far away as <a href="https://www.oldbridge.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Old Bridge</a>. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></p>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">Once you feel the engine has sufficiently cooled, you may attempt to restart your vehicle. However, drive slowly and keep a vigilant eye on your temperature gauge. If you notice the needle ticking towards the red, or see any traces of steam emanating from under the hood, act swiftly and pull over again. At this point, consider calling a friend for a ride, or your trusted roadside assistance provider to tow your vehicle to Raceway.</p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>Traction Control/Stability Control</strong></h2>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">This light (denoted by a car silhouette trailing a pair of squiggly lines) signifies an issue with the wheel speed sensor. Consequently, your anti-lock brake system will be temporarily unavailable. The traction control light flashing is sometimes accompanied by a humming sound from your wheel well. Don't fret when you see the traction control light on your vehicle's dashboard. Its illumination doesn't necessarily suggest a problem like other warning lights. In fact, it typically lights up when your car is striving to keep its grip on excessively wet or slippery roads. If it starts flashing, just keep your cool, maintain your grip on the steering wheel, and continue driving until you've regained full control. To ensure you come to a proper stop at all times, look into our <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/brakes/">brake service</a>, which utilizes Nissan Genuine Parts.</p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>Find Your Guiding Light at Raceway Nissan of Freehold</strong></h2>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">There are numerous warning and indicator lights found across your dashboard. Some that weren't covered are self-explanatory – the door open and low fuel lights, for instance – while others (airbag warning, lamp out alert) are less common but still necessitate immediate attention. But amidst this bewildering array of lights and symbols, there's a comforting takeaway to be found: the assurance that your Nissan is equipped to handle any situation.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">We similarly stay ready for anything here at Raceway Nissan of Freehold. <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/service/schedule-service/">Schedule your service appointment</a> with us today and let our certified technicians take care of your Nissan.

That said, the summer season brings its fair share of hazards to roadways that aren’t often seen at other times of the year: humid temperatures can mess with your engine, thunderstorms can strike at any moment, and the roads are cluttered with inexperienced, young drivers enjoying time off from school.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">That’s why having a safe vehicle is paramount this time of year. Thankfully, <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-pathfinder-in-freehold-nj/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a> has the perfect vehicle for you. With a five-star NHTSA overall safety rating, the 2024 Nissan Pathfinder is a sensational SUV that provides space, comfort, and some of the most innovative safety features in the segment.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The 2024 Nissan Pathfinder was <a href="https://www.iihs.org/ratings/vehicle/nissan/pathfinder-4-door-suv/2024#headlights" target="_blank" rel="noopener">named an IIHS Top Safety Pick+</a>, and it’s easy to see why. Praise was lavished on its child seat anchors, which scored a rare Good+ rating on its overall report. Combine that with the Pathfinder’s practical cabin design, quiet interior while cruising, and off-road capability and you have </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">the</span></i><span data-contrast="auto"> certified family SUV of the summer.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The Pathfinder is no slouch when it comes to getting down and dirty, either. Its towing capacity is 6,000 pounds – more than rivals such as the Kia Telluride or Toyota Highlander. The 2024 Pathfinder keeps the 3.5-liter V-6 from the previous-gen model but adds a new nine-speed automatic. And once again, it outpaces the Telluride and Highlander when it comes to pure speed, going from zero to 60 in 6.7 seconds.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The Pathfinder’s interior is remarkably hushed. Implementing Nissan’s sound-deadening elements creates a respectful atmosphere, which results in a tranquil commute when paired with the Pathfinder’s smooth ride. Even when you’re driving up busy Route 9 North towards <a href="https://www.oldbridge.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Old Bridge</a>, the ambiance won’t falter.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The sun is shining, temperatures are rising, and this weekend, Cars &amp; Coffee season (un)officially kicks off in the Freehold area! What better way to start your day than with a hot cup of joe, a fresh bagel, and hundreds of exceptional, fascinating vehicles?</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">There are dozens of Cars &amp; Coffee meets scattered throughout our area, each with their own unique blend of vintage, custom, and luxury vehicles. Here are just a handful of Cars &amp; Coffee gatherings taking place this weekend and throughout May – all located within an hour of our location at <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a>.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Short answer: it’s the best way to start your Saturday or Sunday.</span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Cars &amp; Coffee meets are social gatherings of like-minded gear heads, usually taking place on weekend mornings during the spring and summer. They’re generally held at dealerships, restaurant parking lots, or other public spaces. A collection of vehicles is displayed, though the vehicle types vary, as each event is unique. One C&amp;C meet might feature vintage and antique cars, while another showcases modern luxury sports cars. In almost every case, they’re “look but don’t touch” car shows.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">And of course, coffee is usually in abundance. For a full list of refreshments on hand, the types of vehicles you can expect to see, and whether there’s an entrance fee, try seeking out the meet’s website for further details.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Just as we do here at <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a>, <a href="https://www.cars.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cars.com</a> understands the value of Nissan.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Three Nissan models – the Kicks, Frontier, and Sentra – secured a place on the publication’s <a href="https://www.cars.com/articles/2024-cars-com-affordability-report-best-value-new-cars-478375/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2024 Best Value New Car list</a>, an annual Affordability Report that determines which vehicles deliver the best value for their price. With the average new-car list price at its lowest point in over a year, the list exemplifies why it’s the perfect time to get into a new Nissan.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">The Award Goes To...</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">The following three models were recognized by Cars.com’s 2024 list: the 2024 Nissan Kicks S was named Best Value: Subcompact SUV; the 2024 Frontier King Cab S 4x2 was named Best Value: Midsize Pickup; and the 2024 Sentra S finished in third place in the Compact Car segment. The <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-versa-in-freehold-nj/">2024 Nissan Versa SV</a> was also named as an honorable mention.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The Kicks, Sentra, and Versa were all honored for the second time in as many years, after placing on Cars.com’s <a href="https://www.cars.com/articles/2023-cars-com-affordability-report-best-value-cars-461158/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2023 Best Value New Cars Report</a>. The Frontier, however, made its debut on the list in a big way, besting household names like the Toyota Tacoma and Chevy Colorado.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Each finalist is evaluated on their median list price and annual fuel costs to determine which “offer the best bang for consumers’ buck,” according to the official website. Additionally, Cars.com surveys are used to identify which finalists are offering popular options that drivers desire.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">Speaking of giving drivers what they want: <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-kicks-in-freehold-nj/">the 2024 Nissan Kicks</a> (starting MSRP: $21,340) delivered best-in-class fuel economy and came loaded with features and equipment, such as standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. And as <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/pumped-up-kicks-nissan-thinks-larger/">our recent preview of the 2025 Kicks</a> highlighted, this subcompact SUV is getting larger and even more generous with this year’s edition.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-frontier-in-freehold-nj/">2024 Nissan Frontier</a> (starting MSRP: $30,510) outpaced the competitive midsize pickup market thanks to its distinct design, impressive specs, and thoughtful convenience features. The 2024 Frontier packs a standard 310-horsepower, 3.8-liter direct-injection V6 engine and a towing capacity of up to 6,640 pounds. That makes for quite the value deal, when you consider the Frontier generally sells for ten grand less than the midsize pickup segment’s $43,412 median price.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/nissan-sentra-in-freehold-nj/">2024 Nissan Sentra</a> (starting MSRP: $21,180) continued to prove that when it comes to affordability, you can’t beat a well-made, small car. The difference in average fuel economy between compact cars and small SUVs is slimmer than ever thanks to advances in engine development. Therefore, why not save thousands on a more diminutive vehicle that gives you the added bonus of fun, sporty performance?</span>

<span data-contrast="auto">This summer, Nissan is Kicking back against stagnant vehicle design. Larger, more powerful, and altogether transformed from its 2024 edition, <a href="https://www.nissanusa.com/2025-kicks.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the 2025 Nissan Kicks</a> is an upgrade in every sense of the word.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">With this glow up, Nissan’s compact crossover SUV receives its cleanest, most cohesive exterior design yet. Although it loses none of the fun-size personality it’s become associated with, this version of the Kicks is larger than ever before, with a more powerful engine – and for the first time, optional all-wheel drive.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Kicked Up a Notch</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">Nissan has been careful not to tinker with the core tenants of what people love about the Kicks – namely, its low price and quirky design. But this year's model is a natural evolution, starting with its revamped exterior. The 2025 Kicks features pronounced wheel arches, a distinctive grille, and optional two-tone color schemes. It’s also significantly higher off the ground, with 8.4 inches of ground clearance compared to the 2024’s 7.0 inches.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">The “go bigger” philosophy extends under the hood. The engine is getting a massive upgrade in the form of a 2.0-liter unit rated for 141 horsepower and 140 lb.-ft. of torque. Optional all-wheel drive is included for the first time, and there is now a “Snow” drive mode in addition to the standard Normal, Eco, and Sport modes.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">While you could easily qualify past models of the Kicks as a crossover or hatchback, there’s no mistaking the 2025 Kicks as anything other than a subcompact SUV. This is a vehicle meant to pack the kids into for a weekend trip, whether up Route 9 towards <a href="https://www.oldbridge.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Old Bridge</a> or down to the Jackson area and <a href="https://www.sixflags.com/greatadventure" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Six Flags Great Adventure</a>.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">An Expanded Interior</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">The Kicks’ expanded size naturally leads to increased space in the interior – specifically, 1.7 inches more front shoulder room, 1.9 inches more rear shoulder room, and 0.9 inches more knee room in the rear. Rear passengers also get to enjoy Nissan’s zero-gravity seats, an example of the modernization on display with the exterior continuing into the cabin.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">New infotainment options are available this year. In addition to the standard 7.0-inch display, you get an available 12.3-inch center screen. More diver-assistance features come standard this time around, including:</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">After a seemingly endless winter campaign, spring has blissfully arrived in <a href="https://www.visitmonmouth.com/">Monmouth County</a> once again. Bees are buzzing, basketballs are bouncing, and that perfect April air is tantalizingly close at hand.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">It’s time to gameplan how you’re going to spend your spring weekends here in the Freehold area. Thankfully, <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a> has suggestions aplenty. These five stops should be part of any spring agenda, and they’re perfect for the entire family.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">E-Street Bikes</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">Your vehicle’s tires go through a lot over the course of the winter. That makes the start of spring the perfect time to measure your tires’ health. If you swapped out for winter tires last year, it’s time to make the switch back to summer tires. Luckily, <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/tires/">our tire experts are here</a> to help you find the perfect set of tires for your vehicle.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">But with the inviting spring breeze beckoning, why not give your car’s tires a break altogether? Head over to </span><a href="https://www.e-streetbikes.store/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">E-Street Bikes</span></a><span data-contrast="auto">, where they specialize in building and repairing electric bikes.

<span data-contrast="auto">Bicycle in tow, the great outdoors is now yours to commandeer. </span><a href="https://www.monmouthcountyparks.com/page.aspx?Id=2540" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-contrast="none">Turkey Swamp Park</span></a><span data-contrast="auto"> is a 2,388-acre family campground centered around a 17-acre lake. A prime fishing spot, you can also traverse the lake via kayak, canoe, or paddleboat – all available to rent. The park itself features miles of trails, playgrounds, and an archery range. It can feel like we’ve been stuck inside for an eternity at the tail-end of winter; a single weekend with the family at Turkey Swamp Park should remedy that.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3159" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/03/2024-Nissan-Frontier-Pro-4X-Dirtbikes.jpg" alt="A popular Nissan Frontier for sale, a silver 2024 Nissan Frontier, Pro-4X, is shown driving on a highway." width="999" height="550" />

Nissan has brought us many favorites over the years, and with advancing technology, the brand's vehicles are only getting better, more convenient, and more capable. When you see a <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/wlp/nissan-frontier-for-sale/"><strong>Nissan Frontier for sale</strong></a>, you know you’re going to find a reliable and versatile truck to do all of the hard work for you. However, what kind of technology goes into these trucks? Have there been any significant changes over the years? Well, we put the Frontier and the Colorado at the starting lines in a head-to-head battle for the best technology features. Of course, performance matters, too, and we will dive into a little bit of that before turning to technology. However, our main focus today is the thing that keeps us connected, secure, and confident.
<h2>The Mechanical Details</h2>
The 2024 models of Frontier and Colorado are given powerful engines, but the Frontier offers more out of the gate. The Nissan Frontier is fitted with a standard 3.8L V6, while the Chevy Colorado features a 2.7L I-4 in two flavors: the Turbo and TurboMax. But what does that mean exactly, and what is the difference between the Turbo and TurboMax? Engines are like the heart of trucks; the 2.7L Turbo I-4 engine is healthy and offers respectable performance, although its turbocharged design is much higher stressed than the big V6 in the Frontier. The TurboMax version of this engine increases boost even further, providing power, higher performance, and better towing capabilities. However, the 3.8L V6 engine that you’ll find in the Nissan Frontier is a capable engine that can last well over 300,000 miles for a long lifespan of your vehicle, adding value to this pickup truck. These engines are similar in raw numbers, but you’ll want to check out the Nissan Frontier for more standard performance and proven longevity.

To put it in technical (or mechanical) terms, the Nissan Frontier, with its strong engine, gets 310 hp in every trim, even if you buy the base model. In comparison, the standard engine on the 2024 Colorado only has 237 hp even though these two trucks have a similar starting price. Even if you upgrade to a more expensive higher trim with the TurboMax engine, you will still only get the same 310 hp as the base model Frontier. If you’re looking to keep within a moderate budget, it doesn’t matter which trim level you choose when you go with the Frontier because you’ll get great power and performance anyway. These engines can also affect capabilities like towing capacity. On the Nissan Frontier, the standard engine has an impressive maximum towing capacity of 6,640 lbs, while the Colorado tops out at 3,500 lbs with its base engine.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3160" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/03/2024-Nissan-Frontier-King-Cab-Interior.jpg" alt="The gray interior and dash of a 2024 Nissan Frontier King Cab is shown." width="1000" height="550" />
<h2>Everything in the Cabin</h2>
When you get behind the wheel and take a peek at the luxurious cabin of the 2024 Frontier, you’ll find a few pieces of technology that will immediately take your breath away. There are two different options to check out for the cabin: the Crew cab and the King cab. The main difference between these two is the amount of space in the rear row, although the King cab offers a six-foot bed that is not available on the Colorado. However, the technology does not alter between the two, making either choice a great option. An intuitive touchscreen will keep you and your family connected, entertained, and informed, and there is a wireless charging capability for the ultimate convenience. Or you can plug into the available USB ports––it's your choice.

Check out your touchscreen display while backing up or hitching to tow, as there are multiple angles to show you the way. You can listen to your favorite music or podcasts through the quality Fender sound system. Drive smarter with an intelligent cabin that lets you live life and never quit, even when you’re on the road. With the MyNissan App, you can stay more connected, even if you are nowhere near your Frontier! There is so much you can do with this, like check stats, control certain features, and more at the touch of a button conveniently located on your phone.

The 2024 Colorado offers similar technology features, including a large standard infotainment display to check out all your vehicle's stats. Remote connectivity can be done through the MyChevrolet App, which allows you to control certain features and remote start, similar to Nissan’s MyNissan App. The Colorado also offers an infotainment system that has Google built-in and provides convenience for the entire family throughout the duration of your exciting journey. It even compares to the Frontier with the wireless charging pad that you can find in most vehicles in this current generation. While these technology advancements are good, they are mostly common in trucks. The Frontier does have a bit more to choose from and more quality technologies for comfort and convenience purposes.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3161" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/03/2024-Nissan-Frontier-Moonroof.jpg" alt="The black interior and moonroof is shown in a 2024 Nissan Frontier." width="1000" height="550" />
<h2>Safety Technology</h2>
There is nothing like safety. The technology that goes into modern safety features is the most important thing you should be looking for when searching for a new vehicle, as the roads can be dangerous and unpredictable. Some things that these trucks have in common are their standard safety features, like emergency braking, collision alerts, and lane departure warnings, which all utilize radars and cameras to feed information to your vehicle. The Colorado comes with Chevy Safety Assist, while Nissan has Nissan Safety Shield 360. These packages come standard as safety is crucial to support their customers with, and can be useful tools in emergency situations. However, if you’re looking for cutting-edge technology that supplies plenty of safety features to help you drive confidently and react quickly when so much is going on, then the Frontier is a great option.

Some main differences between the Chevy Colorado and the Nissan Frontier are found within their touchscreen––or more like shown. While these trucks have surround vision to let you zoom in on what’s going on around your vehicle, the Frontier has guided assist for towing and angles to correctly hitch without worrying if you’re too far or not far enough from hooking up to the trailer. However, the main difference is the packaging of features. For instance, Nissan makes cruise control a standard feature on every trim of the 2024 Frontier, while Chevy only has it as an extra-cost option until you reach the top trims. The Frontier has more and better versions of safety and technology packages that customers prefer and are well-reviewed.
<h2>Test Drive the Nissan Frontier</h2>
Both of these strong pickup trucks have unique qualities and similar comparisons that make them good buys and good investments. However, the clear winner in terms of performance and technology goes to the 2024 Nissan Frontier for its standard V6 power and better-packaged advanced tech features. Of course, both trucks have their own things to offer, so if you aren't ready to count out the Chevy Colorado just yet, let us set you up with a test drive. If you’re looking for value, good performance for less, and features that impress new and seasoned drivers alike, then what are you waiting for? Pay us a visit and test drive the 2024 Nissan Frontier at Raceway Nissan of Freehold today! ]]></content:encoded>

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3153" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/03/2024-Nissan-Frontier-Pro-4X-Dog.jpg" alt="A popular Nissan Frontier for sale, a gray 2024 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X is shown parked on a mountain." width="1002" height="550" />

Now, more than ever, drivers are choosing a truck for their everyday vehicle. This shift might be due to a number of reasons, whether it’s to enjoy the great outdoors on the weekend, gain the utmost functionality from their vehicle, or enjoy the advanced safety and technology features in today's trucks that rival many cars and SUVs. To answer the rise in truck popularity, Nissan offers three standout options, starting with the 2024 Nissan Frontier. The Nissan Frontier is a mainstay in the Nissan lineup, initially debuting in North America in 1997. Since that time, the Frontier has undergone many changes to become the dynamic truck it is today.

You can find the 2024 <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/wlp/nissan-frontier-for-sale/"><strong>Nissan Frontier for sale</strong></a> here at Raceway Nissan of Freehold. Our team will take the time to answer any questions you have about the Frontier and ask a few of our own to help us narrow down which trim levels might fit your needs best. The 2024 Nissan Frontier is available in five trims as well as a Hardbody Edition with retro-inspired decals. Continue reading to learn more about the Frontier in general and its specific trims.
<h2>Smaller But Still Powerful</h2>
As mentioned, the Nissan Frontier was initially introduced in 1997 in North America, replacing the Nissan Hardbody. However, both trucks share the Nissan Navara name in many overseas markets. Since its North American debut, there have been three generations, with the latest redesign in 2022. The Frontier has the smallest footprint of the three Nissan trucks, but that doesn’t mean it can’t hold its own.

The Nissan Frontier gives you the chance to enjoy the freedom of the unpaved road while also providing you with the features you need to easily commute from point A to point B. Additionally, you can choose from a rear-wheel drive or a four-wheel drive model, depending on your needs. New changes for the 2024 model year include the above-mentioned Hardbody Edition, which offers a bit of nostalgia in its design with 1980s styling in the wheels, decals, bed-mounted sport bar, and more. There is also a new SL trim, which offers standard leather-trimmed upholstery, a ten-speaker Fender stereo system, and LED lighting accents.

Regarding power and performance, a 3.8L V6, which first debuted in 2020, is the standard engine. It provides you with 310 hp and 281 lb-ft of torque and is paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission that makes you forget you’re driving a truck. This engine power also gives you the flexibility to tow up to 6,640 lbs, which is more than enough to haul a boat or camper for a weekend getaway or load an ATV onto a trailer, and head out for a day of off-roading with friends. The 2024 Frontier offers an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 21 MPG combined with rear-wheel drive or 20 MPG combined with four-wheel drive.

<h2>2024 Nissan Frontier: Trim Level Guide</h2>
Each 2024 Nissan Frontier trim level offers something for the everyday driver. Which one you choose will come down to preference and how you’ll use your Frontier.
<h3>Nissan Frontier S</h3>
The S Trim is available in both rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, as well as in King and Crew cabs. Along with the 3.8L V6 engine mentioned above, it offers Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Remote Keyless Entry with Push-button Ignition, NissanConnect capabilities via the eight-inch color touchscreen display, and a seamless connection to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Other driver-assist features include Intelligent Forward Collision Warning, a RearView Monitor that makes reversing easier, Trailer Sway Control to boost confidence when towing, and Intelligent Driver Alertness to alert you when the system senses a drop in focus. Inside, you’ll enjoy a thoughtful design that takes both you and your passengers into account, with multiple beverage holders, USB charging ports, and comfortable seating. Additionally, the NissanConnect system is easy to use and gives you access to the apps you use most.
<h3>Nissan Frontier SV</h3>
Some of the key features of the SV trim include 16-inch aluminum-alloy wheels instead of the steel wheels on the S trim, a body-color front grille, and a six-way power driver’s seat with two-way lumbar support. Like the S trim level, the SV trim is available in King and Crew cabs, but it adds a long bed choice for the Crew cab that the S doesn’t offer. Regarding comfort and convenience, the SV trim offers the same eight-inch color touchscreen display found in the S trim, as well as multiple beverage holders and USB charging ports. Other differences in the interior include premium cloth trim and chrome interior door handles.
<h3>Nissan Frontier SL</h3>
One notable difference between the new SL trim and the S and SV trims is that the SL is only available as a Crew cab. Additionally, as mentioned above, the SL trim makes its presence known with an aggressive exterior that includes 17-inch dark-painted machine-finished aluminum-alloy wheels, LED signature headlights, a sliding rear window, and a power sliding glass moonroof with tilt feature. On the inside, you and your passengers will enjoy Dual Zone Automatic Temperature Control, Nissan Intelligent Key with Push Button Ignition, a Remote Engine Start System with Intelligent Climate Control, and even more beverage holders and USB chargers than you’ll find in the other two trims. Plus, passengers in the back row gain a fold-down center armrest, while you and your front-seat passenger will enjoy heated seats.
<h3>Nissan Frontier PRO-X</h3>
The PRO-X ups the ante with a larger NissanConnect color touchscreen display and Lava Red contrast interior stitching, but the differences don’t stop there. If you’re looking for a truck that is comfortable wherever the road or trail takes you, the PRO-X might be the trim level for you. Of course, the other trim levels can hit the road less traveled as well, but the PRO-X is built for adventure. First, there are the Bilstein off-road performance shock absorbers. Then there are the all-terrain tires. In addition to that, you’ll find LED fog lights and Lava Red-painted front tow hooks. Other features, from safety to connectivity, are on par with the other trim levels as well as other trucks in its class, which means you get a well-rounded truck that doesn’t mind a little dirt when you choose the PRO-X.
<h3>Nissan Frontier PRO-4X</h3>
Last but not least is the PRO-4X trim level. As you can imagine, it takes everything off-road-oriented about the PRO-X trim to the next level. Like the PRO-X, the PRO-4X is only available in a Crew cab. Unlike the PRO-X, it comes standard with four-wheel drive. The PRO-4X also gives you added support when off-roading with Hill Descent Control, underbody skid plates, and an aluminum front skid plate. Inside, you’ll find many of the same great features found in the other trims with a few design differences, such as the PRO-4X embroidered seats and the uniquely designed carpeted floor mats. Additionally, both the PRO-X and PRO-4X have standard Nissan Door to Door Navigation with Premium Traffic to get you where you’re going with ease.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3140 aligncenter" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/02/SpringCleaning2.jpeg" alt="" width="612" height="408" />

<span data-contrast="auto">It’s leap day 2024, in which we attempt to return our calendar system to its normally appointed schedule. It’s an illusion of a day in which any productivity should come as a bonus. With that in mind, why not use this leap day to get a jump on your inevitable spring cleaning checklist?</span>

<span data-contrast="auto">We're three weeks away from the <a href="https://www.almanac.com/content/first-day-spring-vernal-equinox" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>spring equinox</strong></a>, but the average temperature in Freehold is already settling into the 50’s. Even if you can't muster enough enthusiasm to begin cleaning your home (again, understandable, as this is a fake day), cleaning your car is the perfect place to start. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">With these tips from <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/"><strong>Raceway Nissan of Freehold</strong></a>, you can start prepping your vehicle for the year ahead, using it as a <em>spring-</em>board to begin your normal spring cleaning ritual. Let's start with your car's exterior concerns and work our way inwards.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Wipe the Slate Clean</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">With the amount of wintery precipitation we got this year, chances are your windshield wipers got a good workout. After months spent grinding through layers of snow and ice, the start of spring is an ideal time to replace your blades. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">As the temperature rises, take notice of how your wipers are performing in heavy rainfall. If they’re leaving behind streaks on your windshield, that's a sign it's time for replacement blades. Fortunately, switching out your windshield blades is a simple task – one that our <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/parts/department/"><strong>Parts Department</strong></a> can handle in no time.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="auto">Dare to Tread</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span></h2>
<span data-contrast="auto">The start of spring is also the perfect time to gage the condition of your tires. If you made the switch to winter or snow tires last year (well done!), it's time to start thinking of transitioning back to summer tires. Additionally, measure your tires' tread; if the current tread is less than a two-thirds of an inch, it’s also time for a replacement. Come <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/tires/"><strong>explore your tire options</strong></a> at Raceway Nissan and enjoy a complimentary tire rotation. Together, we'll find the wheels that make the most sense beneath your vehicle.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}"> </span>

<span data-contrast="auto">If you won’t be changing tires, it’s important you get an air pressure reading as soon as possible. Chances are you weren't motivated to do so during the winter, and tires run a greater risk of deflation during colder months. If you haven’t measured your air pressure since putting up the Christmas tree, don’t be surprised to find that the PSI dropped with the temperature.

At Raceway Nissan, we take pride in offering customers more than just vehicles we deliver a seamless buying experience aligned with your lifestyle.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Understanding the Role of Auto Dealers Near Me in Your Car Buying Journey</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When you search for </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, you’re seeking convenience paired with professionalism. Local </span><b>car sales places near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> provide the advantage of easy access for test drives, service appointments, and ongoing support. A strong </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> will not only offer competitive pricing but also demonstrate expertise in matching vehicles to customers' unique requirements.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s important to consider the breadth of services a </span><b>car from dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> offers. This includes financing options, vehicle history transparency, and after-sales maintenance. Working with dealerships for cars that have a proven track record can save time and reduce stress.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Identifying Quality Car Dealerships for Cars in Your Area</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Not all </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> are created equal. To find a reliable </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, look for businesses with clear customer reviews, a broad inventory of vehicles, and knowledgeable staff who can answer your questions thoroughly. Whether you’re interested in a new or used car on dealership lots, reputable dealers will be upfront about vehicle conditions and pricing.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">One way to verify a dealership’s reputation is to ask about their certifications or affiliations. Many top dealerships are members of recognized automotive associations, ensuring adherence to ethical sales practices. When visiting </span><b>car sales places near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, take the time to observe how staff engage with customers—professionalism and transparency are good indicators of a trustworthy dealer.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Buying a </span><b>car on dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> premises involves several stages.

Reliable </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> will encourage this step and provide detailed specifications to help you make an informed choice.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Next, discuss financing and trade-in options. Many </span><b>car dealerships</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> have flexible plans tailored to diverse budgets. Ensure you fully understand the terms before committing. A reputable </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> will also provide warranty details and maintenance packages, important for protecting your investment long term.</span>

Regular cleaning and conditioning of your car’s exterior preserve its appearance, while scheduled oil changes and engine checks keep it running smoothly.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">For paint protection, consider dealership-recommended patch care treatments to prevent rust and chips. Proper storage during harsh weather can prolong your vehicle's lifespan. Utilizing these practical tips from trusted dealerships for cars helps ensure your investment remains in peak condition.</span>

<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Working with Trusted Auto Dealers Near Me Matters for Long-Term Satisfaction</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">A dependable </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> does more than facilitate a transaction; it becomes a resource throughout your vehicle ownership journey. From initial purchase to routine maintenance and even trade-ins, a well-regarded dealership offers peace of mind.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Finding the right </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is the first step toward driving home a vehicle you love and trust. With so many options, choosing the right dealership can feel overwhelming. The process involves more than simply searching for </span><b>car sales places near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> or visiting the first </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> you see. You want a place that offers not just a great inventory but also transparent pricing, strong after-sales support, and a commitment to making your ownership experience smooth from day one.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">This guide explores how to identify the best </span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"><b>auto dealers near me</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, what services to expect, and why working with a reputable dealership ensures long-term satisfaction. We’ll also look at how the Example brand approaches car buying and service excellence, drawing on years of industry expertise to meet customer expectations at every step.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Choosing a dealership should involve more than convenience; it should be a calculated decision based on service quality, financing solutions, and the dealership’s understanding of your needs. Whether you’re interested in securing a </span><b>car from dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> inventory that’s new or certified pre-owned, or simply want advice on maintaining your car in peak condition, knowing where to go makes all the difference.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Finding the Best Auto Dealers Near Me Matters</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Your choice of dealership directly impacts not only your buying experience but also your long-term satisfaction with your vehicle. A reputable dealership is more than just a place to purchase a car — it’s a partner in your automotive journey. From helping you choose between a sporty sedan or a versatile SUV to walking you through warranty terms, the right </span><b>dealerships for cars</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> ensure you’re confident in every decision.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The wrong choice can lead to hidden fees, limited service options, or poor customer support. On the other hand, the best </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> create a welcoming, informative environment where your preferences are respected. They understand that purchasing a car is a significant investment and aim to provide the information, flexibility, and transparency necessary to make the process as stress-free as possible.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Key Qualities of a Trusted Car Dealership</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When evaluating </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, pay close attention to the qualities that separate average sellers from trusted professionals.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Transparent Pricing and Financing Options</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The best dealerships offer upfront pricing without hidden fees. This is especially important when arranging financing. Whether you’re applying for a loan or leasing, clear explanations of interest rates, payment terms, and total costs are essential.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Comprehensive Vehicle Selection</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">A well-stocked </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> should offer a diverse range of models to match different driving needs. From compact cars perfect for city commutes to spacious SUVs and trucks, variety ensures you can compare features and find the right fit.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Customer-Centric Services</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Buying from a </span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"><b>car on dealership</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> lot is only the beginning. Top dealerships also provide after-sales support such as maintenance, repair services, and extended warranty options. These offerings keep your car performing at its best long after purchase.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Example Approach to Car Buying</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">At Example, the focus is always on pairing customers with vehicles that suit their lifestyle and budget while maintaining a luxury-standard service experience. Their philosophy is that buying a car should be as enjoyable and stress-free as driving it.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">From the first test drive to signing the final paperwork, Example-trained staff members guide you through each stage with professionalism and attention to detail. Their sales approach is built on listening, not pressuring, ensuring that each customer leaves with a vehicle they’re genuinely excited about.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">How to Narrow Your Search for Auto Dealers Near Me</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Choosing the right dealership starts with research, but there are practical steps to make the process easier.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Check Reviews and Ratings</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Look for consistent feedback regarding transparency, professionalism, and post-sale service. A dealership with a high number of positive reviews is more likely to deliver on its promises.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Visit in Person</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">While online searches for </span><b>car sales places near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> are a good starting point, visiting the dealership allows you to assess the atmosphere, speak with staff, and evaluate the vehicles firsthand.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Evaluate After-Sales Support</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Reliable </span><b>dealerships for cars</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> maintain service departments that handle routine maintenance, repairs, and warranty claims efficiently.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Role of Financing in Choosing Auto Dealers Near Me</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the most important factors in your buying decision is the financing process. A dealership that offers flexible financing ensures you can drive away in the car you want without unnecessary stress.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Example’s financing specialists work with customers to create solutions that align with individual financial situations. Whether purchasing outright or spreading payments over time, the focus remains on providing options that are clear, competitive, and manageable.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Maintaining Your Car After Purchase</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Purchasing from a reputable </span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"><b>car dealership</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is only the first step in ownership. Maintenance ensures your car remains reliable, safe, and efficient.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cleaning Methods for Longevity</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Regular cleaning preserves your car’s paint and interior materials. Use manufacturer-approved cleaning products to avoid damage.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Storage Tips</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">If your car will be unused for extended periods, store it in a covered, climate-controlled space to protect it from weather damage.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Patch Care and Conditioning</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Inspect your tires regularly and address punctures promptly to avoid safety hazards. Conditioning leather or fabric interiors also maintains comfort and resale value.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Raceway Freehold Stands Out</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When it comes to </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, Raceway Freehold consistently earns top marks for service, selection, and trustworthiness. Their expansive inventory covers everything from fuel-efficient sedans to family-ready SUVs, with both new and certified pre-owned options available.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The dealership’s transparent pricing, attentive staff, and state-of-the-art service center make it a preferred destination for local buyers. Whether you’re scheduling a test drive or arranging financing, every interaction is designed to be efficient and customer-focused.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Visit Raceway Freehold to explore current inventory and start the financing process today.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Driving Forward with the Right Dealership</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Finding the right </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is about more than location — it’s about trust, service, and a shared commitment to keeping you on the road. From evaluating inventory and securing financing to maintaining your car for years to come, your choice of dealership shapes your entire ownership experience.</span> ]]></content:encoded>

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone wp-image-6537 size-large" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2025/08/Apply-for-Nissan-financing-and-get-pre-approved-today-1024x576.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="576" />

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Finding </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is one of the most important steps when purchasing a car, whether it’s your first vehicle or your fifth. Choosing the right dealer ensures you get the best value, transparent pricing, and the service support you’ll need for years to come. The process involves much more than walking into the nearest lot; it’s about understanding your options, comparing services, and knowing what sets a professional dealership apart from the rest. The best dealers combine a wide inventory with exceptional customer service, competitive financing, and trustworthy after-sales care.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">From identifying reputable </span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"><b>car sales places near me</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to understanding the advantages of buying a </span><b>car from dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> instead of private sellers, this guide will cover everything you need to make a confident and informed decision. We’ll also highlight how a professional approach, like that of the Example brand, ensures not just a purchase, but a lasting automotive relationship.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">In this guide, you’ll learn how to evaluate dealerships, how financing options can impact your buying decision, why maintenance and aftercare are essential, and even how to keep your car in prime condition through proper cleaning, storage, and interior care. Whether you’re searching for a </span><b>car on dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for daily commutes or weekend adventures, the right information will help you find the perfect match.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why choosing the right auto dealers near me is crucial</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Buying a car is a significant investment, and the choice of dealership can influence your overall experience. Reputable </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> not only provide access to a broad inventory but also offer transparent pricing and credible advice. This reduces the risk of overpaying or ending up with a vehicle that doesn’t fit your needs.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Well-established </span><b>dealerships for cars</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> maintain strong relationships with manufacturers, ensuring you get the latest models, genuine parts, and manufacturer-backed warranties. A reliable dealer will also have certified pre-owned options for those who want quality at a reduced price, making your search more flexible.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Key qualities of professional car sales places near me</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When evaluating </span><b>car sales places near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, look beyond just the number of vehicles on the lot. The best dealerships prioritize customer needs, provide thorough test drives, and maintain a clean, organized showroom. They also have experienced sales consultants who focus on understanding your requirements instead of pressuring you into quick decisions.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Service quality plays a huge role in building long-term trust. A great </span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"><b>car dealership</b> </a><span style="font-weight: 400;">will have an in-house service center equipped with certified technicians who can handle everything from routine maintenance to complex repairs. This ensures your </span><b>car from dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> stays in optimal condition without the hassle of finding an independent repair shop.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Financing options and the advantage of dealer-backed credit</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Financing is often where the difference between a standard dealer and a professional one becomes clear. Established </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> offer multiple financing options, including low-interest rates, trade-in programs, and manufacturer incentives. This can make the difference between settling for a vehicle and getting the one you truly want.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Working with a dealer-backed finance program allows you to get pre-approved quickly, often on the same day. This not only speeds up the buying process but also helps you know your budget before stepping onto the lot. It also ensures all terms are transparent and tailored to your specific situation.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Example brand perspective on customer-first service</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">From the viewpoint of Example, the role of a dealership goes beyond the transaction. The focus is on creating an environment where customers feel confident in their purchase decisions. This means offering detailed vehicle histories, clear financing explanations, and personalized after-sales follow-ups. By prioritizing long-term relationships instead of one-time sales, Example ensures that every driver leaves satisfied and supported.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why buying a car from dealership is better than private sales</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Private sellers may offer appealing prices, but they can’t match the assurance that comes from buying through established </span><b>dealerships for cars</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. With a </span><b>car on dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, you benefit from vehicle inspections, legal paperwork handling, and warranty coverage. You also have recourse if issues arise post-purchase, something rarely available in private transactions.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Dealers also offer added services like registration assistance, financing, and trade-in evaluations. This makes the buying process smoother, especially for first-time buyers unfamiliar with the legal and financial steps.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Post-purchase care: cleaning, storage, and conditioning tips</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Once you’ve purchased from </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, protecting your investment becomes the next priority. Regular cleaning helps maintain both appearance and value. For exterior care, use pH-neutral car shampoo and microfiber cloths to avoid scratches. Waxing every few months creates a protective barrier against environmental damage.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Proper storage is just as important. If you have a garage, ensure it’s dry and well-ventilated to prevent moisture buildup that can damage paint and interiors. For outdoor parking, invest in a high-quality car cover designed to shield against UV rays, dust, and precipitation.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Interior conditioning ensures a comfortable ride and preserves resale value. Use fabric protectants or leather conditioners depending on your seat material. Regular vacuuming prevents debris buildup, and cleaning the dashboard with non-greasy protectants maintains a fresh look.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">How to spot trustworthy auto dealers near me</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Not every dealer offers the same level of professionalism. Start by researching online reviews, visiting their official websites, and checking for manufacturer certifications. Trustworthy </span><b>car sales places near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> will have transparent pricing, a visible service department, and clear warranty information.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Another sign of a reputable </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is the willingness to answer every question without rushing the process. Sales staff should provide comprehensive explanations about vehicle features, financing terms, and maintenance requirements.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Online tools for comparing dealerships for cars</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">In today’s market, your search for</span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"> <b>auto dealers near me</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> doesn’t have to start on the road; it can start online. Many dealerships now offer virtual tours, 360-degree vehicle images, and online chat with sales representatives. These tools allow you to narrow your list before visiting in person.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Some also provide online financing applications, letting you secure pre-approval before stepping foot on the lot. This saves time and puts you in a stronger negotiating position.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">The role of certified pre-owned programs</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">For those looking to save without sacrificing quality, certified pre-owned (CPO) programs are a smart option. Offered by many </span><b>dealerships for cars</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, these vehicles undergo rigorous multi-point inspections and come with extended warranties. This makes them a safer alternative to standard used cars and offers many of the benefits of buying new at a lower cost.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">CPO options are especially popular for buyers who want a reliable daily driver without the steep depreciation of a brand-new car.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Maintaining value through dealer service programs</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the best reasons to purchase from </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is access to their maintenance programs. Many provide discounted or complimentary services for the first year or more. This helps you keep your vehicle in prime condition and can enhance resale value.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Regular servicing at the dealership also ensures that only genuine parts are used, maintaining manufacturer warranties and reducing the risk of premature wear.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Finding your next car with racewaynissannj.com</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When you’re ready to choose among the best </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, consider visiting a trusted name. </span><b>Apply for Nissan financing and get pre approved today</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> through</span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">our website</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and explore a wide selection of models, competitive financing, and outstanding service support. Their approach ensures you drive away not just with a vehicle, but with the confidence of knowing you’ve made a sound investment.</span> ]]></content:encoded>

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="alignnone wp-image-6534 size-large" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2025/08/What-Makes-Raceway-Nissan-a-Top-Dealer-in-NJ-1024x576.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="576" />

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Finding the right </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is more than just a search term it’s about locating a dealership that blends quality vehicles, transparent pricing, and trusted customer service. In today’s competitive automotive market, buyers have countless choices, but the most reliable dealerships stand out through a combination of strong inventory, knowledgeable staff, and a commitment to post-purchase care. Whether you’re looking for a brand-new sedan, an SUV that can handle family life, or a certified pre-owned vehicle, the decision of where to buy matters as much as what you buy. This guide explores how to choose the right dealership, the advantages of working with a reputable name, and why Raceway Nissan has earned its reputation as one of the top destinations for buyers in New Jersey.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Quality is key when considering</span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"> <b>auto dealers near me</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> because the dealership is not just a point of sale it’s a long-term partner for maintenance, trade-ins, and advice on keeping your car in top condition. By aligning with a dealer that offers both new and used options, you have the flexibility to meet your budget without sacrificing quality. More importantly, choosing the right partner ensures that when you need a tune-up, a part replacement, or even a simple cleaning, you know exactly where to go.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Choosing the Right Auto Dealers Near Me Is Essential</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When you search for </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, you’re making the first step toward one of the most important purchases in your life. A car is not just transportation it’s part of your daily routine, your weekend adventures, and your family’s safety. The best </span><b>car sales places near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> understand that every driver’s needs are unique. They’ll offer a diverse range of models, from practical sedans to high-performance SUVs, ensuring you can test and compare without feeling pressured.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">A reputable </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> will provide not only a fair price but also transparency in financing options. They make it simple to understand interest rates, trade-in values, and extended warranty choices. Their focus isn’t just on selling you a vehicle today it’s about earning your trust for future purchases and services.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Key Qualities of Reliable Dealerships for Cars</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Top-tier </span><b>dealerships for cars</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> share some common traits:</span>
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">A wide, well-maintained selection of new and pre-owned vehicles.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">

</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Transparent pricing and financing terms.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">

</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">A responsive service department equipped with factory-trained technicians.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">

</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">A customer-first approach that doesn’t end after the sale.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">

</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When these qualities align, your experience buying a </span><b>car from dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> becomes far more efficient, enjoyable, and stress-free.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Value of Buying a Car From Dealership vs. Private Sellers</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Purchasing a </span><b>car from dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> offers benefits that private sellers can’t match. Certified pre-owned programs, for example, ensure the vehicle has undergone rigorous inspection and often include extended warranties. With private sales, there’s rarely any assurance of quality or support once the transaction is complete.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The ability to secure financing directly through the</span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"> <b>car dealership</b> </a><span style="font-weight: 400;">is another advantage. This often means access to competitive interest rates, loyalty incentives, and bundled service plans that save money over the life of the car. A professional sales team can also help you identify models that fit your needs while staying within budget something a private seller is unlikely to prioritize.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Test Drives and Model Comparisons at Auto Dealers Near Me</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">A major reason to visit </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is the ability to conduct side-by-side comparisons. Whether you’re considering a compact commuter car or a family-sized SUV, test driving several options gives you valuable insight into performance, comfort, and features.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">For instance, if you’re comparing two mid-sized sedans, the dealership experience allows you to explore interior layouts, examine safety technology, and understand fuel efficiency firsthand. Similarly, when looking at SUVs, you can assess cargo space, towing capacity, and the ride quality over different road conditions. It’s an interactive process that ensures your decision is informed by real-world experience.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Evaluating Pre-Owned Inventory</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The used inventory at a reputable </span><b>car dealership</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is often as impressive as their new vehicle selection. Many dealers offer certified pre-owned models that have passed extensive inspections and come with manufacturer-backed warranties. This means you can get a like-new vehicle at a lower cost without compromising on reliability.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">How Service Departments Add Value</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the most underrated aspects of choosing </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is the long-term support you receive from their service department. A strong dealership relationship means you can rely on them for regular maintenance, seasonal checkups, and even cosmetic fixes like patch care and conditioning.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Routine services such as oil changes, brake inspections, and tire rotations are performed by technicians who specialize in your car’s brand. This not only extends the life of your vehicle but also maintains its resale value. When you know that every aspect of your vehicle is handled by experts, it adds peace of mind to your ownership experience.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cleaning and Storage Guidance</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Beyond mechanical care, premium dealerships often guide customers on vehicle cleaning and storage. They may recommend specific interior conditioning products to protect leather seats, methods for cleaning delicate trim, or best practices for long-term storage during travel. These seemingly small details can make a big difference in preserving your car’s appearance and comfort over time.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Example’s Perspective on Dealership Excellence</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">From the perspective of the </span><b>Example</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> brand, a dealership is more than a business it’s a representation of trust, quality, and ongoing service. Example believes that customers deserve a seamless buying experience supported by transparent communication, professional advice, and an unwavering commitment to satisfaction. This approach is what separates ordinary dealerships from exceptional ones. Every touchpoint, from the first inquiry to the 50,000-mile service appointment, should reinforce the customer’s confidence in their choice.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Raceway Nissan Stands Out Among Auto Dealers Near Me</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Raceway Nissan in New Jersey is a prime example of what a top-tier dealership can be. With a vast inventory that includes everything from fuel-efficient sedans to rugged SUVs, they cater to a broad range of drivers. Customers benefit from a straightforward purchasing process, competitive trade-in offers, and flexible financing solutions.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Their service department is equally impressive, offering everything from routine maintenance to advanced repairs. Technicians are factory-certified, ensuring that your car receives care in line with manufacturer standards. Whether you’re purchasing a </span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"><b>car on dealership</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> or coming in for a simple tire rotation, the same level of professionalism and dedication applies.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">For those searching for </span><b>auto dealers near me</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, Raceway Nissan consistently delivers on the promise of quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Experience the Difference With a Trusted Name</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When you partner with a dealership like Raceway Nissan, you’re not just making a transaction you’re building a relationship with a team invested in your long-term satisfaction. Their ability to match drivers with the right vehicles, provide ongoing care, and maintain transparent communication is why they remain a top choice in the region.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Visit</span><a href="http://www.racewaynissannj.com"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">our website</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">  to explore their full inventory, schedule a test drive, or speak with a sales representative. The right vehicle, the right deal, and the right service are just a click away.</span> ]]></content:encoded>

While you might not get to choose your chair at the office or even the furniture in the common areas of your home, you can at least have a driver’s seat that is your own personal oasis where you have complete control. There’s also an available heated steering wheel. Say goodbye to mornings when your fingers are frozen stiff, and you can barely drive. The heated steering wheel will quickly penetrate your bones and loosen up those digits so you can hit the road.
<h2>#3 - Remote Engine Start System with Intelligent Climate Control</h2>
The climate treasures continue with this feature. With temperatures dropping below freezing during the winter here and reaching smoldering heights during the summer, nobody likes to get in a vehicle that hasn’t been preheated or precooled. The good news is that when you’re packing up the clubs for an early morning tee time at the Peddie Golf Club on a summer day, you can start your Murano’s ignition and air conditioning before you even get in. Alternatively, on cold days, you can start the heat before you get in. The vehicle will even recall your preferred climate settings thanks to its Intelligent Climate Control system.
<h2>#4 - Chill Out With Ambient Lighting</h2>
After a long day at work, set the right vibe in your Murano with the adjustable ambient interior lighting. The right lighting intensity and colors can create a perfectly relaxing ambiance where you can release the day’s stresses and get ready for an evening of kicking back. Again, if the Murano is meant to be the one place where you have total control over the atmosphere, you’ll love having control over the aesthetic with the adjustable ambient lighting.

<h2>#5 - Leather Appointed…Everything</h2>
Let your interior be your little luxury getaway with the available leather-appointed seats. Whether a partner or roommate won’t let you splurge for leather furniture at home, you can still get it inside your Murano. The luxury of leather continues with an available leather-wrapped steering wheel and leather-wrapped shift knob. If stepping into a beautiful vehicle cabin has a way of melting your worries away, then you’ll love the upper trims of the Murano.
<h2>#6 - Hands-Free Communication</h2>
When you’re stuck in traffic on the New Jersey Turnpike, you might want to take the opportunity to call a friend or family member to catch up. Let the vehicle make the call for you with hands-free Bluetooth calling. Just tell the system who you’d like to contact, and it will initiate the call for you so you can keep your hands on the wheel.

It even has a hands-free text messaging assistant. Forget to ask your assistant to submit that last invoice before leaving the office? Fire off a text without taking your hands off the wheel. Want to ask someone you live with to preheat the oven before you get home without getting bogged down with a whole phone call? Just ask the hands-free messaging assistant to send a text for you. When you drive mostly solo, you don’t have a co-pilot to handle correspondence for you, so having these hands-free communication systems comes in handy.
<h2>#7 - Siri Eyes Free</h2>
Siri Eyes Free is officially your receptionist on the go. Pair it to your iPhone and handle almost every phone task without touching the device. Ask for directions, ask for restaurant recommendations, look up traffic reports, play music, and more on your phone, all without removing your hands from the wheel. Want to know what’s playing at the Picture Show at East Windsor? Just ask Siri. Want to reserve a lane at the East Windsor Bowl and Recreation Center? Let Siri make the call for you.
<h2>#8 - Bose Premium Audio System With 11 Speakers</h2>
Want nothing but the best in your listening experience? You’ll love the available Bose sound system. If you have to spend a lot of time in NYC, drown out the horns and sirens with the 11 speakers, including two subwoofers, that will envelop you with your preferred audio media. Enjoy what sounds like a personal concert on the road. Maybe you don’t get to decide on the sound system at home, but at least in your Murano, you’ll experience studio-quality sound.
<h2>#9 - Nissan Door-to-Door Navigation</h2>
When we say door-to-door, we mean door-to-door. This system doesn’t just give you turn-by-turn directions while you’re in the vehicle. Hop out, and the directions will be sent to your Nissan app on your phone. So when you’re trying to find your friend’s exact remote location at Etra Lake Park for your hike, the navigation will get you there on foot.

What can we say about Nissan that hasn’t already been said before? Nissan is a true master of value, and there’s no better place to experience this than with a Nissan sedan. Once you try one of the models at Raceway Nissan of Freehold, your top <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/wlp/nissan-dealer-near-east-windsor/"><strong>Nissan dealer near East Windsor</strong></a>, you may be taken aback by the amount of features you’ll find, all while maintaining a comfortably low starting price that opens the door of accessibility to more drivers under various budgets. Today, we’re talking about the Nissan Sentra, but there’s also a special appearance from another fantastic option from the manufacturer. Let’s dive into what makes the Sentra a perfect choice for your Mercer County travels, and then you can hit the road and find your new car.
<h2>What Drivers Love About the Nissan Sentra</h2>
If your commute has you driving around East Windsor–say, towards Main Street, or even if your commute takes you down I-95 to Philly–you should check out a Nissan sedan like the Sentra. The 2024 Nissan Sentra is a compact sedan equipped with a 2.0L inline-four engine paired with a Continuously Variable Automatic Transmission (CVT.) This sedan outputs 149 hp and 146 lb-ft of torque, which will provide ample power for both city and freeway travel.
<h3>Highly Efficient</h3>
Fuel economy is a highlight of this powertrain, with the 2.0L inline-four engine helping the 2024 Sentra earn its EPA-estimated ratings of 30 MPG in the city, 40 MPG on the highway, and 34 MPG combined. This is fantastic fuel efficiency, especially for highway travel, so the Sentra is an excellent choice if your job requires you to head out of East Windsor and onto the freeway, whether you’re heading to Philly, Trenton, or up to New York City.
<h3>Impressively Accommodating</h3>
The 2024 Sentra has a sizable trunk that will fit anything you need, which can come in handy while running errands or loading up with groceries. On your days off, why not use this trunk space to pack for a fun day with the family at West Windsor WaterWorks or bring a cooler and some chairs over to Etra Lake Park for a Saturday on the water? This is all thanks to the 2024 Sentra’s 14.3 cu.ft. of space. The 2024 Sentra is accommodating for commutes of various lengths thanks to many of its features that not only come standard with the base model but features you can add to it too through various trim or package upgrades. For example, the base Sentra boasts a comfortable interior cabin space with cozy cloth seating materials and a six-way adjustable driver's seat. Choosing higher-tier trims like the SV showcases available heated front seats, quilted leather upholstery, and a sunroof to let the light shine into its open, airy cabin.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3098" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/02/2024-Nissan-Sentra-Columns-2.jpg" alt="A white 2024 Nissan Sentra is shown parked in a parking garage." width="1000" height="550" />
<h3>Tech-Advanced</h3>
Many other features can contribute to a more enjoyable commuting experience. One of the best examples of this is the infotainment center. The base model 2024 Sentra comes with a seven-inch screen, while the two succeeding trims–the SV and SR–instead come with an eight-inch screen. Echoing this concept is the Multi-Information Display that comes with every Sentra model, but the Sentra S sticks with a 4.2-inch screen while the SV and SR are switched over to a seven-inch screen to display its digital gauges.

Having an infotainment center doesn’t inherently improve the commuting experience, but the features built into it can. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are two of the most popular ways to utilize modern-day infotainment centers because of how well they link to your phone, allowing you to access your contacts, turn-by-turn navigation that you may have saved on your phone the night before, and of course, your favorite media or subscription services. Want to listen to your favorite podcast while driving to work in Twin Rivers, Allentown, or Newark? What about listening to your Spotify playlists on the way to Long Branch Beach in the summer? There are plenty of reasons you’d want to use Apple CarPlay or Android Auto in or around your city, and the infotainment center in vehicles like the Nissan Sentra helps you acquire these features.
<h3>Seriously Safe</h3>
Another strength of the Sentra is that your 2024 model will also come equipped with Nissan Safety Shield 360. With Nissan Safety Shield 360, this means even a cost-effective vehicle like the Sentra is entitled to available advanced safety features like Rear Automatic Braking and a Blind Spot Warning, both of which use the same sensors to help with the trickier facet of driving: the infamous blind spot. With the Sentra, you’ll get Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection on every model that will dynamically stop your vehicle at certain speeds to prevent collisions with pedestrians, other vehicles, and bicyclists. Along with these features, the 2024 Sentra also features Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, which utilizes the same rear sensors as the other features we mentioned. There’s also High Beam Assist and a bevy of other available features like the Intelligent Around View Monitor for a surrounding view of your car with multiple camera angles, Intelligent Forward Collision Warning, Intelligent Cruise Control, and many others.

Advanced safety features are a must nowadays if you live outside of major cities like New York and Philadelphia–such as in East Windsor. It doesn’t matter if you’re an experienced driver who has been on the road for decades–they’re called accidents for a reason, and we’re all prone to them. So, in suburban settings like Hightstown and urban environments like Philly, having advanced safety features has no drawbacks–it’s all gains.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3097" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/02/2021-Nissan-Versa-Red.jpg" alt="A red 2021 Nissan Versa is shown driving." width="1000" height="550" />
<h2>An Honorary Mention</h2>
What if we told you that some of the Sentra’s best qualities can also be found in a Nissan sedan that costs even less? That’s right, the Nissan Versa isn’t only Nissan’s most cost-effective vehicle the manufacturer sells, but compared to what you’ll find elsewhere on the market, it’s perhaps ultimately the best overall value of the bunch. For a vehicle with a shockingly low MSRP of $16,130 for the base model, the 122 hp and 114 lb-ft of torque stemming from its 1.6L inline-four engine is decent enough and made more sustainable by the fantastic EPA-estimated ratings of up to 32 MPG in the city and 40 MPG on the highway, along with 35 MPG combined. <sup>[a]</sup> And, for those interested, the 2024 Versa is available with a five-speed manual transmission as well as a CVT.

Cargo space with the Versa slightly exceeds the Sentra’s cargo space, with a slight difference of 14.7 cu.ft. for the Versa and 14.3 cu.ft. for the Sentra. The best portion of the Versa’s value stems from the fact that it’s a vehicle that costs far less than $20,000 but still offers features like a bustling infotainment center with Apple CarPlay, a wireless charging pad for your phone, and like the Sentra, Nissan Safety Shield 360 comes standard. This value isn’t too good to be true; it can be expected on this model.

East Windsor residents on a slightly stricter budget–perhaps students of Mercer County Community College–or who simply don’t want to spend a lot of money but want a cost-effective vehicle to drive on I-95 or I-295 every day to get into New York or Philly, should buy the Versa. Vehicles like the Versa are great for younger drivers too. So, if you’re trying to get to the Philadelphia Eagles game to see Jalen Hurts’ infamous “tush-push” football play in action, or even if you’re seeing a movie at the local movie theater, the Versa is affordable up-front and keeps money in your pockets for longer.
<h2>Nissan Sedans Are Special for a Reason</h2>
Nissan vehicles like the Sentra and Versa are notable for a reason. That reason is an outstanding value that often puts other vehicles in the industry on the spot and makes you question what the true meaning of value is in the modern-day market. What do you get when you pay more for a car? According to Nissan’s efforts with the Sentra and Versa, you don’t have to pay more than you have to for features like the latest tech and advanced safety features, and you’ll also get some stellar fuel efficiency. These sedans are a budget-friendly driver’s best friend, and if this applies to you and you live in East Windsor, you know what to do next–test drive one of these outstanding models.

<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">Living in the northeast, it's easy to take even our most impressive roads for granted. The Pennsylvania Turnpike, New Jersey Turnpike, and Garden State Parkway have been fixtures, central to our daily commuting for ages.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">While the Pennsylvania Turnpike may not be the longest or oldest road system in America, it's made its mark as a conceptual blueprint for modern interstate highways to follow. Constructed after decades of trial and error, the PA Turnpike provides more than a convenient route to <a href="https://www.racewaykiapa.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">our Conshohocken location</a>.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">New Jersey wasn't far behind with the creation of the <a href="https://www.njta.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New Jersey Turnpike,</a> which serves today as – amongst other things – a conduit to <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/">Raceway Nissan of Freehold</a>, Monmouth County's premier destination for everything Nissan. Alongside <a href="https://www.racewaykia.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Raceway Kia of Freehold</a>, all your automobile needs in the Garden State are conveniently situated just miles off the Turnpike.</p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>The Road to Progress</strong></h2>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">Before the <a href="https://www.paturnpike.com/about-us/turnpike-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pennsylvania Turnpike</a> was conceived, several transport strategies were trialled to unify the state. The Appalachian Mountains, which separate eastern and western Pennsylvania, emerged as the biggest impediment to a new road. An early canal system was established to circumnavigate the mountain pass, but had travelers toiling for days. The advent of trains in the 19th century offered an improvement, but it was the rise of the automobile in the 20th century that introduced a faster, more personal mode of transportation.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">The 1915 Lincoln Highway was our country's inaugural attempt at a comprehensive road system. This highway, which stretched from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, was forced to follow many of the same, winding detours around the mountains. Laden with cross traffic and sharp ascents, this initial road (which still survives as part of US Route 30 today) served as a perilous precursor to the Turnpike.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">As the automobile fascination soared in the 1930s – even amidst the Great Depression – New York started building America's first express highway: the Bronx River Parkway. Inspired, Pennsylvania came up with the Turnpike concept and established the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission in 1934. Securing funds initially was a challenge, but the project found its hero in President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who managed to integrate the highway's construction into his New Deal strategy.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">The construction of the Pennsylvania Turnpike formally kicked off on October 27, 1938. The highway entered service almost two years later, on October 1, 1940.</p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>Jersey's Turn(pike)</strong></h2>
<img class="size-full wp-image-3084 aligncenter" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/02/JerseyTurnpike3.jpeg" alt="" width="768" height="258" />
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">A decade after the Pennsylvania Turnpike was completed, it had become clear that New Jersey’s road infrastructure also required an expressway of its own. Car transportation had surged in the northeast in the aftermath of the Second World War, and New Jersey drivers lacked a hassle-free route from New York to Delaware.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">Then-Governor Alfred Driscoll proposed the formation of the New Jersey Turnpike Authority in 1949, envisioning the road as a self-sustaining system that would fund its own upkeep and repair through tolls. The construction of <a href="https://jalopnik.com/the-new-jersey-turnpike-is-the-greatest-road-in-the-u-s-1848363837" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the greatest road in the country</a> formally began in January of 1950. Even though constructing a new highway across an already heavily populated state was challenging, progress was extraordinary. The project was successfully completed in a mere 21 months, and the Turnpike opened to traffic in November of 1951.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">Momentum continued after this achievement with plans for the Garden State Parkway. The initial stretch of the Parkway took less than four years to build, from July 1952 – May 1956. In 1957, it was extended to connect with the New York State Thruway. Tolls continued to effectively fund and sustain both new Jersey roads.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">Today, the New Jersey Turnpike stands as a cultural landmark in our country. It stars in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJpNmYeooQE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the iconic intro of <em>The Sopranos</em></a>, it was name-dropped by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIoi8EXJaBI" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Simon and Garfunkel</a>, and it quite literally separates Eagles fans from Giants fans.</p>

<h2 class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr"><strong>Your Journey to Adventure Begins Here</strong></h2>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">Most longstanding Jersey residents are too accustomed to them by now, but both the New Jersey and Pennsylvania Turnpikes are gateways to thrill. Each exit is an access point to one of the northeast’s numerous attractions, ready for you to explore.</p>
<p class="text-body font-regular text-gray-800 leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]" dir="ltr">But for a proper adventure, you require the appropriate vehicle. That's where we come into play.

If you are shopping for a compact SUV, looking through the available options, and eyeing something for Sunday drives, family outings, or daily commutes, you’re probably comparing popular models like the Nissan Rogue and Ford Escape. However, you might be wondering why you should visit us, your <a href="/wlp/nissan-rogue-for-sale-near-marlboro/"><strong>Nissan Rogue dealer near Marlboro</strong></a>, to purchase your next compact SUV. You might be weighing the pros and cons, the price and the features, and thinking about which one of these compact SUVs could benefit your household. This article will break down why you should consider the 2024 Nissan Rogue over the 2024 Ford Escape when it comes to tech, navigation, and capacity. We will show you how Nissan's best-selling model could benefit your driving habits if you live around the greater Marlboro Township area.
<h2>#1 - More Cargo Volume</h2>
Marlboro is known for being a great place among its residents, thanks to its amazing picturesque suburbs and visually distinct neighborhoods. This feeds into Marlboro being a family-oriented city, and family-oriented cities tend to lean heavily into vehicles that comfortably seat five or more people. And what vehicle is better for family life than a crossover SUV? Compact SUVs are a great solution to the problem of needing to fit into that family culture and having a vehicle that gels with Marlboro's laid-back atmosphere.

When we dive a little deeper into owning a compact SUV, it's as much about functionality as it is about style. If you have a family vehicle that you regularly use for daily errands, then a large part of the emphasis will be on fuel economy, but another part of it will be on cargo capacity. If you have a budding family, it is equally important to be able to seat multiple people and have plenty of cargo space. While the 2024 Nissan Rogue and 2024 Ford Escape have many common features, cargo space is one area where they diverge significantly.

The Ford Escape tops out with a cargo capacity of 65.4 cu.ft. of space when you fold down the second row. This is an ample amount of space for sure, but it doesn't quite measure up to the Nissan Rogue, which manages to offer 74.1 cu.ft. of cargo space. That's a 13% difference in total cargo volume between the two vehicles in favor of the Nissan Rogue. That additional space can be used for everything from storing additional suitcases on vacation to loading up a school project to carrying extra supplies for a charity drive. Whatever uses you might have for the extra cargo capacity, whether for recreation or for work, the Nissan Rogue provides you with that extra bit of space for your adventures around and about Marlboro.

<h2>#2 - Google Built-In</h2>
When you're thinking about navigation features and connectivity, you might believe that all vehicle infotainment systems are interchangeable and not that important in the broader scheme of a vehicle’s functionality. But they can greatly affect how you navigate around Marlboro and on trips across New Jersey. Whether you're doing a lot of long-range commuting or local runs to the store, having navigation software to help you get to and from your destination safely and conveniently makes life a whole lot easier, especially with features like route planning.

The 2024 Ford Escape has the Ford SYNC 4 suite with FordPass integration for navigation. You have the basic connected navigation and built-in navigation options for the Escape. This includes maps, routes, points of interest, and even construction updates. Having these features in concert with the Ford Co-Pilot360 suite of driver assist technologies is great, especially when you consider you have features and functions like Bluetooth support, MyKey functionality, vehicle seeking, vehicle health, and remote access.

But the Nissan Rogue can benefit you a bit more by having all of its connected services made available through the very fast and streamlined Google Built-In. This system now powers all of the necessary apps and touchscreen functionality, so you get quick access to features like the three-year free trial of NissanConnect Services, which includes Wi-Fi and in-vehicle data access. You also have features like Roadside Assistance in case you find yourself stranded or off the road well outside of Marlboro. There is even full smart device integration for remote access to the vehicle, such as vehicle finder, location alerts, location notifications, remote vehicle status, remote engine start/stop, and remote data wipe for additional security.

Further, you have trip planning and real-time map data access, so you can easily plan your route and receive updates based on weather, traffic, detours, and construction in real time, which is great for when you need a heads-up before you head out of the driveway. This is provided via a feature called SiriusXM Traffic, which gives you real-time updates so you always have access to the latest map and travel data, which can be especially useful if you're attempting to make your way through some of New Jersey's more infamously congested routes. These services are excellent when your kids have field trips, or you're planning on going to events in unfamiliar places outside of Marlboro and need guidance and navigation support to get there.
<h2>#3 - New Infotainment Features</h2>
The Ford Escape doesn't bring anything new to the table for the 2024 model year. It's all carry-over features from the outgoing 2023 model year. The only change is that Ford has removed the Base trim from the lineup, meaning the Active trim is now the starting trim for the Escape for 2024. Basically, you have slightly fewer options and a higher starting price for the new model year.

The 2024 Nissan Rogue, however, has been updated with lots of new content, a refreshed exterior, more safety features, and improved technology. Part of that includes infotainment features that can definitely make the ride more enjoyable as you travel about, especially with Amazon Alexa Built-In so you can listen to your favorite tunes, media, and even audiobooks, all with available voice-command pass-through. This fits in nicely with the Siri Eyes Free functionality, so you can control in-vehicle functionality without ever taking your eyes off the road.

But there is one other feature that Marlboro residents might really appreciate that’s not available for the Escape, and it's the Hybrid Radio feature, which enables you to listen to local radio stations even when you venture outside the range of the radio signal. This is fantastic for anyone who really enjoys listening to specific music, talk shows, and more when they're behind the wheel. This adds an extra layer of convenience, comfort, and interactivity to the overall value of the Rogue, which you won't find on the Escape.

<h2>The 2024 Nissan Rogue Makes Life Easier for Marlboro Drivers</h2>
Both the 2024 Rogue and 2024 Escape are compact SUVs with plenty of noteworthy features, great tech, and roomy interiors. But if you want a vehicle that is forward-thinking, future-proof, and well-designed, the Rogue edges out the Escape in those few key areas mentioned above. If you feel those are enough to appeal to your driving sensibilities, and if you feel the style of the Rogue fits your expectations and aesthetics for your life in New Jersey, maybe it's time to give a little thought to visiting our Nissan Rogue dealership near Marlboro?

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2778" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/01/2021-Nissan-Rogue-Blue-2.jpg" alt="A blue 2024 Nissan Rogue is shown from the front at an angle." width="1000" height="550" />

The compact SUV market is one of the most tenuous places in the automotive industry, practically teeming with equally excellent vehicles. Between heavy hitters like the Nissan Rogue and the Chevy Equinox, what's the average consumer meant to do? As your go-to <a href="/wlp/nissan-rogue-for-sale-near-marlboro/"><strong>Nissan Rogue dealer near Marlboro</strong></a>, we can set you up with one of Nissan's latest and greatest compact SUVs. Nissan has been hitting it out of the park recently with value, considering the price you’re paying and the tech you’re getting, and the 2024 Rogue is no exception to that trend. If you want performance and next-gen tech at friendly prices, you can’t do any better than a Nissan Rogue. Does that mean you should count the 2024 Chevy Equinox out? Let's take a closer look.
<h2>What’s Under The Hoods?</h2>
At first glance, you may think the Rogue and Equinox have similar performance, given that they both use a 1.5L gas engine. You’d be correct that both have 1.5L of displacement and towing capacities of 1,500 lbs. However, everything else about these two powertrains differs. For starters, the powertrain in the 2024 Rogue is a turbocharged 1.5L I-3 engine paired with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), while inside the 2024 Equinox is a turbocharged 1.5L I-4 engine with a 6-speed automatic transmission.

The differences between the two powertrains are three-fold: the 2024 Rogue boasts better overall performance, smoother acceleration, and better fuel economy if the past couple of years are anything to go by. We say this because the 2024 Rogue’s fuel economy ratings haven’t been officially released yet, but the 2024 Equinox has fuel economy ratings almost identical to its 2022 model and uses the same powertrain, much like how the 2022 Rogue’s powertrain carries over to the 2024 model. We can deduce that we may see similar numbers.

For reference, the 2022 and 2023 Nissan Rogue earned fuel economy ratings of 30 MPG in the city and 37 MPG on the highway, for a combined 33 MPG on a total mileage range of 478 miles. Compare that to the 2024 Equinox, which nets a combined 28 MPG while traveling 417 miles on a full gas tank, identical to the 2022 Equinox. This will be worth looking out for when the official 2024 Rogue’s EPA-estimated ratings are released.

However, something that <em>is</em> concrete as of now is the performance you can expect out of the two powertrains. The turbocharged 1.5L I-3 engine outputs 201 hp and 225 lb-ft of torque, higher than the 175 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque from the turbocharged 1.5L I-4 engine inside the 2024 Equinox. That’s right. Beyond the potentially better fuel efficiency and fluid acceleration scope, the 2024 Nissan Rogue gives you 15% more horsepower and 11% more torque throughout.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2779" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/01/2022-Chevrolet-Equinox-Premier-050.jpg" alt="A blue 2022 Chevy Equinox Premier is shown from the side." width="1000" height="550" />
<h2>The Importance of the Google Built-In Infotainment Center</h2>
What separates the Rogue and Equinox the most is the new type of infotainment center you can get for Nissan’s SUV. With the Rogue, you can immerse yourself in Nissan’s new Google Built-In infotainment center, featuring functions above and beyond what is possible with the Equinox’s offering. When it comes to screen size, two variants are available for the 2024 Equinox: a 7-inch or 8-inch screen, both belonging to the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System family. This isn’t bad, considering the system features intuitive controls and additional functions like wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, and a built-in navigation system. If this is all great, then how does the 2024 Rogue fair?

We’ve already mentioned the upgraded system in the Rogue is a Google Built-In infotainment center, but what does that mean? It means the 12.3-inch infotainment center in the 2024 Rogue has an operating system acting as a separate entity to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, the latter of which was also developed by Google. Why would you want Google Built-In when you can perform many of the same functions by plugging in your phone and using one of the two software suites, depending on whether you have an Apple or Android phone? The answer lies within the question.

Some people don’t want to rely on their phones to unlock all the potential from their infotainment centers. This could be for any number of reasons, but consider that if you ever travel without your phone, you’re leaving behind Apple CarPlay or Android Auto at home. With Google Built-In, you have full access to the Google Play Store for third-party apps and Google Maps––the most globally used and trusted navigation software on the market––without needing external devices. The Google Play Store also allows you to download different music streaming apps, which is very helpful because not everybody subscribes to the same streaming services.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2780" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/01/2021-Nissan-Rogue-Blue.jpg" alt="A blue 2024 Nissan Rogue is shown from the side after leaving a Nissan Rogue dealer near Marlboro." width="1000" height="550" />

Something that people have always enjoyed about Apple Carplay and Android Auto is that your profile stems from your phone, meaning you don’t have to worry about navigating through your spouse's apps and music library every time you start the vehicle. When you plug in your phone, the vehicle knows you are accessing the infotainment center, granting you immediate and intuitive access to its features. We all know the Equinox is capable of this. Still, the Rogue is, too, thanks to having both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto embedded with Google Built-In. With the 2024 Rogue, the infotainment center supports different user profiles with adjustable preferences, so beyond your choice of music, if you want to access your apps, music purchases, saved addresses for navigation, or anything else, you can switch users from the home page within the infotainment center itself all without even thinking about your phone.

Does the 2024 Equinox’s infotainment center have any other redeeming factors? It does, such as an available built-in Amazon Alexa, which can be utilized as a hands-off AI assistant. Still, the problem for the Equinox is that you can get most of the same features with the Nissan Rogue’s infotainment center, with just a little more. None of the Equinox's potential features detract from the fact that having Google Built-In is essential for any driver looking to get the most value out of their car's technology without relying on an additional device.
<h2>Putting the Competition in a Tough Spot</h2>
The Nissan Rogue has done something exciting: it has put the compact SUV market in a tough spot. While every manufacturer strives to overcome the competition, the 2024 Nissan Rogue is a far more appealing offer than the 2024 Chevy Equinox. Nissan strives to make their vehicles feel as advanced and "new" as possible, while Chevy takes some liberties with even the latest Equinox, leaving it rooted in the past. The 2024 Equinox’s reliance on older––though decent––tech, priced at what we assume won’t be too far off from the 2024 Rogue, is a heavy misstep on Chevy’s end. And, is the 6-speed automatic transmission and extra cylinder in the engine worth the lesser horsepower, torque, and likely fuel efficiency ratings, too? We didn’t think so, and it’s reasons like this why the 2024 Nissan Rogue bests the 2024 Chevy Equinox. Will this be the case several years from now? We don’t know because that’s up for Chevy to decide. Nissan has proven it’s time to step up the technology game in this competition, and we're all better off for it. ]]></content:encoded>

With an incredible selection of vehicles, the Nissan lineup has something for almost anyone, no matter what you’re looking for in your next ride. With that in mind, the Nissan Rogue is a compact crossover SUV that’s been around for more than 15 years now, offering sporty performance and a gorgeous design that makes it a joy to drive. If you’ve been trying to find your next vehicle at a <a href="/wlp/south-river-nissan-dealer/"><strong>South River Nissan dealer</strong></a>, we suggest broadening your search and visiting us at Raceway Nissan of Freehold. We understand the needs of drivers throughout the Northern New Jersey area, which means we can help you find exactly what you need.

The 2024 Nissan Rogue is the perfect fit for a wide range of drivers, particularly if you’re looking for an incredible SUV that can easily fit into your current lifestyle while keeping you and your family safe. For the 2021 model year, Nissan launched an all-new third generation of the Rogue, updating the 2024 model with an exterior facelift and refresh. The result is a compact crossover that delivers reliable and joyful performance, impressive fuel efficiency, a comfortable interior with plenty of rich features and options, and innovative technology to improve your driving experience and protect you on the road. Let’s take a closer look at this model; you’ll understand why we’re so fond of it.
<h2>Bold, Sophisticated New Looks</h2>
The first thing you’ll probably notice about the 2024 Nissan Rogue is its gorgeous facelift and refresh for the new year. It starts with new front and rear fascias that look stunning and immediately evoke strength and prestige. Front and center is a new version of Nissan’s V-motion grille that is captivating in a way few other SUVs can hope to match. New inner taillights ensure the Rogue looks as good driving away as it does approaching traffic lights in South River. If you’re interested in the Rogue Platinum trim, then you’re in for a treat thanks to the Gloss-black fender, lower exterior, and front fascia trim pieces, along with newly designed 19-inch wheels. Most stunning of all, you get gorgeous exterior colors available like Everest White Pearl, Deep Ocean Blue Pearl, and Baja Storm, not to mention several two-tone options with a black roof that make your color choice even more striking.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2585" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2024/01/Tullahoma-Nissan-Dealer-2021-Nissan-Rogue.jpg" alt="A grey 2024 Nissan Rogue is shown from the front at an angle." width="1000" height="550" />
<h2>A Gorgeous and Comfortable Interior</h2>
The exterior isn’t the only place that Nissan has gone all out with the Rogue’s update—inside, you’ll find a refreshed interior that’s beautiful and incredibly inviting. New colors and textures for the interior door panels, along with the center console, seats, and the passenger-side dashboard, all come together to update the look of the 2024 Nissan Rogue. If you like how Nissan has revised the exterior of the Rogue Platinum model, then you’ll love the interior updates, such as a newly available Chestnut brown leather upholstery that makes the inside of the Rogue feel incredibly warm and welcoming. Combine all these updates with remarkably comfortable seating, and you have a crossover that you and your passengers will look forward to getting into day after day.
<h2>Innovative Technology Throughout</h2>
Although we love the facelift and visual refresh the 2024 Rogue has received inside and out, we know that looks aren’t everything. If you’re anything like us, you also want functionality and features that make your daily commute around South River more manageable and enjoyable. That’s where the impressive tech updates from Nissan come into play, ensuring that the Rogue is a technological marvel more connected than ever before. An 8.0-inch Infotainment display is standard on starting Rogue models, with impressive functionality and ease of use.

To fully appreciate this update, you must check out the Rogue SL or Platinum models, which come with a new 12.3-inch HD Infotainment touchscreen display, fully updated and delivered with class-exclusive Google built-in. This is the first Nissan model to feature Google software as part of its Infotainment system, including Google Assistant, Google Maps, and much more. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto remain standard, with wireless functionality on these higher trims, so you can use the app you prefer. In case that wasn’t enough, the SL and Platinum models also feature Amazon Alexa Built-in, numerous USB ports for charging and connectivity, a wireless charging pad, and much more.
<h2>Taking Safety to the Next Level</h2>
Outstanding technology isn’t just about playing music or figuring out the best way to get where you’re going; it’s also about ensuring you get there in one piece. That’s why every 2024 Rogue comes with Nissan Safety Shield 360 standard, demonstrating Nissan’s commitment to delivering incredible peace of mind. This includes Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, a Blind Spot Warning, and a Rear Cross Traffic Alert. You also get a Lane Departure Warning to alert you if you’re drifting from your lane, High Beam Assist that can automatically turn your high beams on and off, and Rear Automatic Braking.

Suppose you go with the SV trim for the Rogue. In that case, you get ProPILOT Assist, which combines Intelligent Cruise Control with Steering Assist. This uses cameras, radar, and sensors to help keep the Rogue centered in your lane; plus, it can adjust your speed automatically in stop-and-go traffic to make your daily commute less of a hassle. Best of all, the SL and Platinum models include ProPILOT Assist with Navi-Link, which uses data from the Rogue’s navigation system to adjust your speed automatically when a curve is coming up, making driving safer and easier no matter where the road takes you.

<h2><b>Functionality</b><b><i> AND</i></b><b> Style</b></h2>
It would be easy for Nissan to focus so much on the facelift for that 2024 Rogue that they forget all about the fact that you need your crossover to actually work for you when you hit the road each day. Fortunately, Nissan’s designers don’t overlook these kinds of things, so the interior looks stunning and incredibly practical. For starters, you’ll find a pass-through storage space under the center console and a “butterfly-style” lid on the console, making it easy to store small items below it and for front and second-row passengers to access it.

You’ll find more than 36 cu.ft. of rear cargo space behind the second row of seats inside the 2024 Nissan Rogue, along with more than 74 cu.ft. of total cargo space with the rear seats folded. This gives you a tremendous amount of room inside the Rogue to load up with everything you need before you hit the road, making it ideal for running errands around South River, camping on the weekend, and anything else life throws at you. Add in the available power liftgate with motion-activated functionality. You have a crossover that looks amazing, delivers incredible peace of mind, and meets your needs day after day.
<h2>The Perfect Fit for South River Drivers</h2>
As you can see, the 2024 Nissan Rogue has been updated and loaded with features destined to make it one of the most popular and sought-after crossover models on the road. Once you add in the VC-Turbo engine with its impressive power and fuel efficiency, plus available all-wheel drive, you get a ride that’s fun to drive and helps keep you in control even when the weather turns ugly. This is the perfect crossover for getting around South River, taking day trips up to Staten Island, or hitting the road for a longer trip—you can easily go cross-country in this beauty. No matter what life throws at you, the 2024 Rogue is ready to answer; all you have to do now is visit us at Raceway Nissan of Freehold, and we’ll make sure you find the right model with everything you’ve been looking for. ]]></content:encoded>

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="aligncenter wp-image-2377 size-full" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/11/2023-nissan-sentra-profile-night-sport-inspired-design-o-copy.jpg" alt="An orange 2023 Nissan Sentra is shown from the side after leaving a East Brunswick Nissan dealer." width="1000" height="550" />

Shopping for a new or used sedan can be difficult because of the amount of options out there, and there are a lot of options. If you live in East Brunswick and have been shopping for a brand-new sedan, it's definitely worth considering a Nissan. Why? Well, there are a number of reasons why a Nissan sedan is worth considering. They're ideal vehicles for commuters, offering great performance and efficiency, all at an affordable price. They're also equipped with a host of desirable features you'd expect from a modern sedan. An investment in a Sentra or Altima means adding value to your daily drive and fewer stops at the pump.

If you're a New Jersey driver searching for that perfect <a href="/wlp/east-brunswick-nissan-dealer/"><strong>East Brunswick Nissan dealer</strong></a> with a great selection, head south and meet us here at Raceway Nissan of Freehold. We proudly offer the full lineup of Nissan vehicles, which include popular models like the Sentra and Altima. As residents of this corner of The Garden State, we understand what types of vehicles are great for our East Brunswick customers. The Sentra and Altima are two sedan options that are ideal for drivers looking to travel efficiently without compromising on comfort, convenience, and safety features so they can travel with confidence. So, what makes these models a great choice for East Brunswick drivers? Let's take a closer look.
<h2>The 2024 Nissan Sentra Makes for a Great Entry-Level Sedan for Your Teen</h2>
For those with children, your little ones eventually grow into teenagers, leading to them inevitably getting their license. This sometimes leads to figuring out how to give your teen the freedom they crave but still keep them safe, all while saving money. This is where the 2024 Nissan Sentra comes in; it makes a perfect brand-new option for parents who wish to avoid shopping in the used market.

While an Altima may be too big for your kid's first vehicle, the Sentra is a perfect compact that works as a cost-effective, low-maintenance, and highly functional entry-level vehicle. The base level S trim has a starting MSRP of $25,730, which is great if you're looking to buy a brand-new car that is feature-rich but isn't a financial burden, especially as a first vehicle for a household member.<sup>[a]</sup> It's that perfect balance between economic and feature-rich.

The 2024 Sentra also comes standard with the Nissan Safety Shield 360. For parents worried about their kid driving their own car, whether to school or to work, the Sentra comes with everything necessary to help keep your kid safe on the road, such as driving assists and driving aids. This includes a Blind Spot Warning, a Lane Departure Warning, Rear Automatic Braking, and Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection.

The Safety Shield 360 is great for helping keep your teen from having a potential accident, as well as alerting them in case an accident may be heading their way. There's really nothing more soothing for a parent than knowing that their teen's first car is keeping them safe on the road, and the Sentra is designed to do just that.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2343 size-full" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/11/2023-nissan-sentra-displaying-bold-exterior-design-o-copy.jpg" alt="A blue 2023 Nissan Sentra is shown from the front at an an angle." width="1000" height="550" />
<h2>The 2024 Altima and Sentra Offer Amazing Fuel Economy</h2>
Saving money at the gas pump is just common sense. If you don't have to waste money or time constantly filling up or refilling the gas tank, it just makes life easier. Both the 2024 Nissan Altima and Nissan Sentra are perfect candidates for easing up your life with great fuel economy, which in turn gives you a lot of range and overall means spending less money and time at the pump. The importance of this is that it means if you're doing a lot of inner-city traveling with stop-and-go traffic through Newark, Brooklyn, or Queens, a gas-guzzler can ruin the mood if you're constantly having to stop to refill every so often.

For the 2024 Sentra, you have up to 30 MPG in the city and an estimated 40 MPG on the highway. This is thanks to the multiple drive modes available for the Sentra, which includes the Sport Mode and Eco Mode, the latter of which enables you to get the most range possible out of the Sentra while also saving on fuel. This is one of the benefits of the 2024 model year's updates, which includes the powertrain enhancement to improve fuel efficiency.

The 2024 Nissan Altima, meanwhile, offers equally satisfying fuel economy across two different powertrains and two different drivetrain configurations. If you opt for the 2.5-liter 4-cylinder in front-wheel drive, you have a maximum fuel economy of 27 MPG in the city and up to 39 MPG on the highway. If you want the improved stability and handling that comes with the all-wheel drive configuration, you get 26 MPG in the city and up to 36 MPG on the highway. If you want access to the faster turbocharged 4-cylinder, you can get 25 MPG in the city and up to 34 MPG on the highway.
<h2>The 2024 Altima Makes for an Awesome Executive Sports Sedan</h2>
What you drive says a lot about you, and most people want to drive something that matches their status in life. If you're in a career field where you feel you need to be driving something that matches the importance of your role in that business, then having an executive sedan makes a lot of sense. In terms of emanating a sense of prestige and luxury, the 2024 Nissan Altima actually manages to occupy that role quite well, even among some of its competitors and peers in the luxury midsize sedan segment.

This is thanks to Nissan putting extra effort into the overall quality design of the Altima. Over the years, the midsize sedan has significantly evolved past its more economy-car roots. The body lines and aerodynamic fastback are indicative of a sports sedan, while the color scheme and silhouette give it that luxury-car appeal. An exquisite lineup of exterior colors like Pearl White Tricoat and Scarlet Ember Tricoat give the Altima that eye-catching visual flair. Elements like the sunroof, front-side vent grilles, and the all-new updated headlights as part of the 2024 refresh for the front fascia add a lot of upscale style to the appeal of Nissan's premier midsize sedan.

Not only does it look great, but it also has many great features to boot. An 8-way power front driver seat and available leather or sports leather-appointed seats give you an extra layer of comfort, convenience, and luxury from the Altima. Available leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, with the availability of carbon-fiber or dark teak wood interior trimming, offers up the kind of executive sedan elements you would expect from BMW or Mercedes. All things considered, it's not hard to see why the Altima is one of the best-selling cars in the United States.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2344" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/11/2021-Nissan-Altima-Bridge.jpg" alt="A red 2024 Nissan Altima is shown from the front at an angle on a bridge." width="1000" height="550" />
<h2>Both the 2024 Altima and Sentra Make for Excellent Starter Family Vehicles</h2>
If you live in East Brunswick and you're just starting out with a brand new family, then both the 2024 Altima and Sentra make for worthwhile considerations as sedans for starter families. The Sentra is a good way to go if you plan on having kids but don't have any right now – the fuel economy and low maintenance overhead make it a good vehicle to have as you're still figuring things out. If you decide to have more kids, it can accommodate up to five people across its two rows and has a cargo volume of 14.3 cu.ft. of space in the rear trunk, which is a decent size for storing groceries and items for a small starter family.

The 2024 Altima gives you a bit more leeway for growing that starter family into something larger. Having more passenger volume and a slightly larger trunk at 15.4 cu.ft. of space means slightly more storage space and room for carrying capacity. It makes it great for family outings, daily driving, and as a work vehicle. Plus, as the family grows, you still have room to work with, given its midsize expanse.

The Sentra and Altima are great as single-starter vehicles or secondary vehicles. In fact, it would make sense to have both if you're part of a two-partner working household, where you and your significant other are both working in careers but have plans on starting or growing the family. Alternatively, using the Sentra or Altima as the workhorse of the household for daily errands and commuting due to the low maintenance and great fuel economy while having a larger SUV for outings would make a ton of sense.

For the Altima, you get the luxury quality of the exterior, sports performance on the road, and interior accouterments like the Nissan infotainment suite featuring an available 12.3-inch HD touchscreen. The sedans also come complete with the availability of Nissan Door-to-Door Navigation for traffic and destination plotting. It's everything to make family driving in a Nissan sedan a worthwhile investment.
<h2>We’ll Help You Find the Perfect Nissan Sedan</h2>
If you're in East Brunswick and you're still thinking about a sedan to get to and from your destinations, to and from work, or just as a vehicle to enjoy a Sunday drive, a 2024 Nissan Sentra or Altima looks like a great choice if you want all of your amenities packed into a vehicle that offers a lot for its price range. If either vehicle has intrigued you, then why not take the next steps to learn more?

Over the past few years, there has been a significant change to a better work-life balance, creating a shift in how you think about many things. This includes the vehicle you drive. It’s not enough to simply get you to work and back. You need a vehicle that can handle driving the kids to their activities, support your side hustle, and help you enjoy weekend adventures that take you off the beaten path. That is why the Nissan Rogue is the perfect travel companion.

If you're a New Jersey driver with your eye on the Rogue and are looking for a great <a href="/wlp/new-brunswick-nissan-dealer/"><strong>New Brunswick Nissan dealer</strong></a>, we invite you to check out our extensive Rogue selection here at Raceway Nissan of Freehold. Our friendly and knowledgeable team can walk you through each option and help you find the right one. Regardless of how you’ll use your Rogue, we’re sure it can help you find the balance you’re looking for. Continue reading to learn more about this dynamic vehicle and how it fits your needs, plus a bit of history detailing how the Rogue came about.
<h2>A Look at the Nissan Rogue Through the Years</h2>
When the Nissan Rogue was first introduced to the American market in 2007, it was Nissan’s first step into the world of small crossover SUVs. It quickly gained popularity thanks in part to Nissan’s history of reliability and innovation. Plus, it checked all the boxes drivers wanted from a smaller SUV, including functionality and fuel efficiency.

When the second-generation Nissan Rogue came out a few years later, it offered a more modern look, increased fuel efficiency, and added an option for a third row of seats. This option opened the Rogue up to a new group of drivers who needed to transport more people, making it one of the few small crossovers that could fit seven people. In addition, this Rogue version focused on safety features, which were at the top of the list for many drivers.

By the time Nissan released its third generation Rogue in 2020, the SUV already had quite a loyal following. This third generation had a major redesign, delivering a stylish and high-end appearance with an updated infotainment system on the inside, along with premium cushioning and the latest safety technology.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2118" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/10/2023-white-nissan-rogue-with-roof-rack-l-copy.jpg" alt="A white 2023 Nissan Rogue is shown from the rear at an angle." width="1000" height="550" />
<h2>Today’s Nissan Rogue</h2>
Today, the Nissan Rogue continues to be a contender in its class, offering the everyday driver the tools they need for a comfortable and efficient drive. Whether you’re headed to NYC or enjoying your weekend camping at Turkey Swamp, it’s easy to see how the Rogue can assist in making the journey memorable. First, you have four trim levels to choose from, not including the limited Midnight Edition, when shopping for the Rogue.

Each option allows you to choose either front-wheel drive or Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. This system gives you control when you need it most by seamlessly transitioning between road conditions thanks to the efficient distribution of torque between the front and wheel axles. In addition, you can choose selectable modes to help you tackle city streets or uphill climbs. Performance continues to impress with a turbocharged 1.5L three-cylinder engine that offers 201 hp and 225 lb-ft of torque and dynamic fuel efficiency that gives you up to 37 MPG on the highway.
<h2>Comfort and Cargo Space</h2>
On the inside of the Nissan Rogue, you’ll find everything you need at your fingertips. For instance, if you’re a busy family that spends a lot of time driving from one afterschool activity to the next, you’ll love the Rogue’s storage options with its unique Divide-N-Hide Cargo System. This system, available on certain trim levels, allows you to configure your cargo area in six different ways. There’s also an available motion-activated liftgate and remote-folding rear seats to make unloading and loading a snap. Each of these features helps you utilize up to 36.5 cu.ft. of cargo space as you see fit or put down the back rows for 74.1 cu.ft. of space.

Plus, there are other thoughtful features throughout, including storage cubbies, beverage holders, charging ports, and more. Not only does the Rogue’s intuitive design make the drive more comfortable, but the available premium leather-appointed seats, generous legroom, three comfort zones, and the option to enjoy increased natural light with the Dual Panel Panoramic Moonroof also give the Rogue a touch of elegance.
<h2>Nissan Safety Shield 360</h2>
Now, more than ever, you can feel confident during the drive with Nissan’s continued focus on driver assistance safety features. A few of the available options are detailed below.
<h3>Automatic Emergency Braking With Pedestrian Detection</h3>
This innovative feature helps you and others on the road by alerting you when a pedestrian or cyclist enters your space. The alerts are both audible and visual, giving you the chance to reduce your speed to avoid a collision. Additionally, if the system detects you’re not stopping in time, it applies automatic braking to assist.
<h3>Rear Automatic Braking</h3>
This system works much like the one above. If it detects objects in your rearview, it gives you time to stop on your own or assists when needed.
<h3>Blind Spot Warning</h3>
This system is integral, especially when traveling on busy roadways. It lets you know when vehicles are in your blind spot so you can navigate more efficiently. These are only a few of the many safety features you can expect from the Nissan Rogue. Our team can review each one with you, as well as what features each trim level has.
<h2>Connectivity</h2>
In today’s busy world, it’s vital to stay connected. The Nissan Rogue answers the call with an easy connection to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. In addition, you can connect to Google seamlessly when using Android Auto with voice commands that give you directions, play your favorite podcast, and more. In certain trims, you can even find wireless charging. In addition, the dashboard of the Nissan Rogue gives you access to all the diagnostic information you need, plus the ability to customize the 12.3-inch digital display on various trim levels.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2117" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/10/2023-nissan-rogue-crossover-suv-gray-finish-copy.jpg" alt="A grey 2023 Nissan Rogue is shown from the front at an angle." width="1000" height="550" />
<h2>Customizing Your Nissan Rogue</h2>
Whether you choose a brand new Nissan Rogue from our lineup or pick one of our dynamic used Rogues, the best part about this vehicle is the ability to customize it to fit your needs. While the other amenities listed above make the Rogue a great choice regardless of your driving needs, the accessories available for the Rogue take it to the next level. Also, Nissan Genuine Accessories have a 12-month/12,000-mile limited warranty if installed by our team when you purchase a new Rogue. Keep reading to see some of the accessory options that help you create the best Rogue for you.
<h3>Hatch Tent</h3>
This is perfect if you love camping. The hatch tent unfolds, creating a 10’x10’ tent that can stay connected to your Rogue, giving you access to the cargo space or stand-alone. There’s also a 6’x6’ canopy and external rain-fly for added protection.
<h3>Exterior Ground Lighting</h3>
Light up the night with exterior ground lighting. This effective feature helps you load sleeping kids into the back of your Rogue or find your keys if you drop them. Either way, it’s a nice touch that also adds a bit of security when getting into your vehicle at night.
<h3>Interior Accent Lighting</h3>
Speaking of lighting, you can customize the interior mood of your Rogue with available accent lighting. This feature lights up the front floor of the space, giving you the ability to personalize your interior.
<h3>Roof Rails</h3>
The collaboration of Nissan and Yakima gives you the ability to utilize roof rails for your bicycle or kayak.
<h3>Portable Cargo Organizer and Cargo Block Stabilizers</h3>
Both of these accessories make it easier to find what you need and transport cargo safely. The portable organizer easily holds things in place while the block stabilizers ensure the things you haul don’t slide from side to side. You can ask our team about each of the accessories and more when shopping for your new or used Rogue.

Midsize SUVs appeal to a variety of travelers, from families to daily drivers, road trippers, and adventurers. They’re the ideal size without being too bulky like their full-size cousins, and they showcase just the right amount of features without overdoing it and becoming too expensive. They’re the perfect alternatives for drivers who want more than a compact SUV can offer yet don’t want to drive a vehicle that’s too large, and one of the best options is the Nissan Murano.

Not only does the Murano showcase a unique look that sets it apart from other rugged rivals, but it’s also armed with highly desirable features and delivers a comfortable ride quality that resonates with daily travelers.

<h2>Platinum: Optimized Refinement</h2>
For top-of-the-line luxury, you’ll want to pay special attention to the Platinum trim, which steals the show inside and out with sophisticated styling elements that allow you to feel like you’re riding in a much more expensive vehicle. From the outside, 20-inch dark hyper silver aluminum-alloy wheels and body-colored bumpers instantly captivate you, while chrome accents deliver a striking appeal to this high-end traveler. Inside, semi-aniline leather-appointed seats envelop you in comfort, while diamond-quilted inserts provide the level of opulence you’re looking for on board. A dual-panel panoramic moonroof lets the light in, allowing you to feel at one with the skies above as you travel to your destination.

Heated and ventilated front bucket seats, a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, plus wood and metal elements add a heightened sense of modern comfort to this impressive SUV. Plenty of tech features can be found in this top-tier trim as well, including an 11-speaker Bose premium audio system, door-to-door navigation, smartphone capabilities, and multiple USB ports on board to keep all devices powered up for the journey ahead.

Convenience reigns supreme, with access to a power liftgate that can respond just by kicking your foot under the rear bumper to make loading up your vehicle effortless, even when you’ve got your hands full. The Platinum trim showcases a perfect blend of functionality and refinement, allowing you to soak up the ride like never before. If you’re in the market for an upscale traveler, you’ll want to take a closer look at this top-level trim.

<h2>SL: Elevated Appeal</h2>
When you’re interested in an elegant vehicle, yet you don’t want to overspend, the SL is a great pick. It showcases an ideal blend of refined features and versatility, allowing it to appeal to many drivers, with its 20-inch machine-finished aluminum-alloy wheels and black and chrome grille allowing it to take center stage on the road.

Leather appointments greet you on board to wrap you in luxury, while an air filtration system helps create the ideal ambiance as you’re traveling, getting rid of harmful toxins and purifying the air inside its pristinely laid-out cabin. Like the Platinum, the SL showcases contemporary accents throughout by way of wood and metal elements to create a unique look inside. You’ll also find a heated steering wheel and power-adjustable front seats to increase comfort on the road.

The SL also focuses on innovation, with access to helpful features designed to enhance safety on board, including an Intelligent Around View Monitor. This intuitive feature provides a 360-degree view around your vehicle, which comes to the rescue when navigating heavy traffic or maneuvering out of a crowded parking lot. Seeing better all around your vehicle helps reduce the chance of accidents occurring and adds immense value to your time on the road.

From Bluetooth to SiriusXM, the SL can be loaded with features to elevate the feeling of the drive. When you’re looking for a luxury experience but aren’t in the market for the highest-level trim, the SL makes it easy to enjoy the ride with access to all the features that make our time on the road simply exceptional.
<h2>SV: Uncompromised Affordability</h2>
It always seems that when you move to the mid-level selection, you must get ready to settle for less. In the case of the Nissan Murano, however, this isn’t true, with its mid-level SV offering an excellent experience with high-quality features without breaking the bank. From its 18-inch machined aluminum alloy wheels to its LED lighting elements, the SV turns heads wherever it travels.

When you enter its cabin, it showcases a cozy ambiance, with leatherette seats and door inserts, as well as convenient storage solutions and a 60/40 folding bench seat to accommodate ample cargo. A six-speaker audio system, plus Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Bluetooth capabilities, bring heightened connectivity to the ride, allowing you to settle into the journey effortlessly.

Intelligent Cruise Control makes it easy to hit the road on an epic trip, allowing you to set your speed and distance from the vehicle in front of you while the Murano adjusts to changes in traffic patterns accordingly. A front and rear sonar system helps detect objects in front or behind you, allowing you to avoid these obstacles making for a much safer ride. There’s no need to sacrifice the features you want to stay within your budget. The SV makes this easy with its arsenal of desirable features, modern tech, intense comfort, and more, all for a price that’s affordable for cost-conscious drivers everywhere.

<h2>S: Contemporary Simplicity</h2>
When you think of a base model, you may assume it doesn’t have the features or comfortability you’re looking for in your ride, but again, the Nissan Murano eliminates this stereotype with its S trim. Not only is the S incredible at offering an enjoyable and efficient ride, but with its 3.5L V6 able to get up to 28 MPG on the highway, it also offers a beautifully styled interior cabin space.

Comfortable cloth seating provides the perfect atmosphere to sit back and relax after a stressful day, while leatherette and chrome accents surround you, offering exceptionally modern style to your driving experience. An 8-inch color touchscreen display provides you with all the tech features you need during your time on the road, including smartphone capabilities, hands-free text messaging, and more. This makes the base S trim perfect for drivers who refuse to settle when it comes to their vehicles.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1553" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/07/Nissan-Pathfinder-for-Sale-2023-Nissan-Pathfinder-Rock-Creek-River.jpg" alt="A tan 2023 Nissan Pathfinder Rock Creek is shown near a river." width="1000" height="550" />

When the first Nissan Pathfinder arrived in 1986, the focus was more on utility than comfort. This was common for the first SUVs and fit the purpose at the time. However, SUVs soon became a mainstay for families, and that caused a shift in priority while still retaining function. Since then, the Nissan Pathfinder has been known for its focus on family and for good reason. The Pathfinder is tough and flexible, with a good mix of comfort, space, and power, making it a great choice for families who spend a lot of time in their vehicles and want to create memories rather than worrying about fitting everyone on board comfortably and having to stop for gas constantly.

The Pathfinder is roomy, offering three rows of seats for up to eight people. This makes it great for family outings or trips with a few friends. The seats in the second row can tilt back and move forward for easy loading, and the Pathfinder also has a lot of cargo space for camping gear, sports gear, or whatever else is needed. In addition, the Pathfinder is safe, with available features that give you and your family extra protection, providing you more peace of mind while driving. And that's not all; you'll find state-of-the-art technology and comfort that is hard to beat from the minute you slide into the driver's seat. If all this sounds intriguing and you're ready to begin looking for a <strong>Nissan Pathfinder for sale</strong>, make your first stop at Raceway Nissan of Freehold, where our team will help you discover what makes this three-row midsize SUV so special.
<h2>Comfort and Tech at Your Fingertips</h2>
The Pathfinder not only looks sharp on the outside but also looks and feels cozy on the inside, with room for seven or eight, depending on second-row seating. It also has up to 80.5 cu.ft. of cargo to haul whatever you need, not to mention the available panoramic moonroof that lets natural light fill the space and provides a sense of openness and freedom while driving on the open road. In the Nissan Pathfinder, you're treated to the perks no matter what row you're in, which is great for all on board.
<h3>Front Row Amenities</h3>
You'll feel in control in the driver's seat, starting with the available Driver's Seat Memory System that retains information for two drivers, including settings for the steering wheel and outside mirrors. The Nissan Pathfinder also offers either a 6-way manual or a 10-way power driver's seat, depending on your model. For your co-pilot, they gain comfort through a 4-way manual or 10-powered driver's seat. Both options offer premium cushioning so you can enjoy the ride. You'll also enjoy Lower-dash Storage Bins and a Pass-Through Console that helps you keep everything organized. In addition, there's an available Remote Engine Start System for chilly New Jersey mornings and the option for climate-controlled front seats that either cool or heat depending on the weather and your preferences.

Upon sliding into the driver's seat, you'll immediately be greeted by an array of cutting-edge tech designed to make your drive easier. You get three digital displays, including an available 12.3-inch Digital Dashboard that provides important information like directions, current speed, and more. Even better? You can customize the displays to give you the information you need. The Pathfinder also removes the frustration of cords by giving you the option of wireless charging. And with NissanConnect, you get emergency alerts, real-time information, an available Wi-Fi hotspot, and more.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1551" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/07/Nissan-Pathfinder-for-Sale-2023-Nissan-Pathfinder-Backback.jpg" alt="A backpack is shown on the tan passenger seat in a 2023 Nissan Pathfinder." width="1000" height="550" />
<h3>Second and Third Row Perks for Passengers</h3>
Long trips can be tiring, especially for younger travelers. But the Nissan Pathfinder solves this problem by providing a cozy and fun place for them to enjoy the trip. With its soft-touch materials, supportive seats, and up to 12 cup holders, the Pathfinder ensures everyone is comfortable and entertained during the trip. When choosing your new Pathfinder, you can customize the second row to include bench seating or captain's chairs. You also get convenience with an EZ Flex 2nd-Row Seating System that lets you slide and tilt the second row forward so your third-row passengers can easily get in or out. This is perfect when you drop the kids off for school or pile everyone into the back to head to Battleview Orchards or Turkey Swamp Park.

Have you ever wished your second-row passengers had the convenience of their own console? With the Pathfinder, they do. This available feature keeps their things tidy and removes easily to provide additional room. Other perks for your passengers in the second and third rows include the option of rear sunshades to keep the glare out of their eyes and available second-row heating. Your passengers will also enjoy temperature control with Tri-Zone Automatic Temperature Control, ensuring everyone on board gets their desired temperature.
To keep passengers entertained, they can turn on their rear reading lights, enjoy an available Bose Premium Audio System with 13 speakers, and keep connected with both USB-A and USB-C ports. The Nissan Pathfinder is also SiriusXM-ready, so everyone can find something to listen to, or you can connect with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto for a more personalized experience.
<h2>What Else Does the Pathfinder Offer?</h2>
In addition to the benefits above, Pathfinder's off-road skills are a big plus for families who want to explore places off the beaten path. It is built to last, has a high ground clearance, and offers an Intelligent 4x4 system with seven drive and terrain modes, so you can easily reach your destination. Each mode is easily selected with the turn of a dial. Available modes include Mud/Rut, Snow, and Tow, just to name a few. The Pathfinder also performs well when pulling trailers, boats, and other recreational vehicles. With its impressive towing capacity of up to 6,000 lbs, you can bring your favorite toys and gear wherever you go, giving your family more options for outdoor adventures. With so many parks in our area, you can enjoy a new one every few weeks.

When planning family road trips, fuel economy is an important thing to think about. You'll be happy to know that the all-wheel drive option of the Nissan Pathfinder gets an impressive 21 MPG in the city and 27 MPG on the highway, giving you the power to go further. The front-wheel drive option is slightly less, giving you 20 MPG in the city and a similar 27 MPG on the highway. This makes the Pathfinder a great choice whether you drive locally or plan to spend the day in the city.

And last but not least, you can't forget about cargo space. This is another place where the Pathfinder shines. Not only do the second and third rows fold flat for your convenience, but there's also an available Motion Activated Liftgate and Cargo-area Under-floor Storage. And with Nissan's available cargo accessories, the back half of your vehicle can be just as organized as the front. Popular options include Under-floor Storage Dividers, a Cargo Net, and a Portable Cargo Organizer that collapses when not in use.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1331" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/06/Nissan-Rogue-for-sale-near-Manalapan-NJ-2023-Nissan-Rogue-silver.jpg" alt="A popular Nissan Rogue for sale near Manalapan, NJ, a silver 2023 Nissan Rogue, is shown parked near a city." width="1000" height="550" />

Driving is a right of passage for most teenagers living in the U.S. It signifies a transition into adulthood that’s marked by freedom, opportunity, and new experience. However, it can be terrifying to parents, and for good reason. When your teenager is finally old enough to drive, parents are left to grapple with this newfound independence. The protective instincts kick in, and suddenly safety has a whole new meaning. If you’re going to be supportive of your teen’s driving ambitions, it’s important to help them find the right car. The right car, and at the right price, has to be safe in every sense of the word.

A safe vehicle isn’t subjective. It has to have top safety ratings, safety and driver assistance features, and helpful tools that train your teen driver to embrace good driving habits. Nissan understands the importance of building vehicles that the whole family can enjoy. They’ve designed a lineup of models that can deliver on every aspect of safety. Each time a new model is released, Nissan proudly includes the latest in innovation to help their drivers feel more confident. When automotive brands started incorporating teen driving features into vehicles, Nissan jumped on board to do the same for their customers, resulting in a lineup that includes vehicles––like the Rogue––that are perfect starter cars for your new driver. Keep reading to check out how a Nissan Rogue can help you teach your teen driver the art of navigating the roads safely. We have many models of the <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/wlp/nissan-rogue-for-sale-near-manalapan-nj/"><strong>Nissan Rogue for sale near Manalapan, NJ</strong></a>, ready for your teen’s newly-minted license.
<h2>What Constitutes Safe Driving?</h2>
Watching your teenager learn to drive can be a stressful experience. The hope is that they’ll understand the importance of being attentive, not using devices, and obeying the laws of traffic. The road can be unpredictable, and the best way to prepare your teen driver is by making sure they have all the tools they need to drive safely.

Driving safely is a combination of being aware of your surroundings, aware of your vehicle, and always paying attention. There are a number of helpful tips that can be implemented to promote safety in everyday driving scenarios. For example, always use your turn signals to alert other drivers to your intent and never, under any circumstances, drive without wearing your seatbelt. Make sure your teen knows that a yellow light is an indication to stop or slow down since it means the signal is about to change. Yellow should never be a suggestion to speed up and outrun the light. Teach your teen about the 'Three Second Rule'––stay three seconds behind the vehicle in front of you; that’ll give you time to react in the case of an emergency stop and more room to make alterations to their position, if necessary. Rear-end collisions are one of the most common accident types and are often the result of a lack of distance between the two vehicles involved.

Safe driving means always paying attention. Picking up your phone is the best way to lose awareness and cause danger for you and everyone around you. Laws that have been put in place against texting and driving exist for a good reason, and keeping both hands and your eyes on the road will help mitigate unnecessary accidents. We all know teenagers are addicted to their phones, so this lesson may be one of the most important to learn. Aside from not using devices, it’s also critical that teen drivers understand the importance of driving sober. Teach your teen that it’s unacceptable to drive even short distances with any level of impairment. That means no driving if they’re drunk, high, or buzzed. It’s highly illegal and highly dangerous.

The unfortunate reality is that auto crashes are the leading cause of teen death. Inexperienced teens have the highest accident and death rate on the roads due to the lack of expertise, driving distracted, speeding, and not using a seatbelt. But as a parent, you’re not without recourse. Teach your teen driver to always obey traffic laws, drive sober, wear a seatbelt, and implement safe driving habits. Do this before and after your teen driver has their license. You never know the impact this education can have on protecting your teen driver.

<h2>Standard Safety on the Nissan Rogue</h2>
The Rogue is a best-selling model for Nissan, so it’s safe to say the brand pays attention to detail when it comes to its top vehicle. Each model comes standard with Nissan’s Safety Shield 360, a suite of safety and driver assistance features that help your teen when they get behind the wheel. This suite includes Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, which senses the distance between the Rogue and the vehicle ahead, and will apply brakes to help mitigate a frontal collision. It can also detect pedestrians and cyclists. Rear Automatic Braking detects objects behind you and can apply brakes while the Rogue is in reverse. Safety Shield 360 also includes Blind Spot Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Rear-Cross Traffic Alert, and High Beam Assist.

The Nissan Rogue also has available driver assistance features that can be added depending on the trim level. Nissan’s ProPILOT Assist and ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link work when lane markings are detectable to provide Intelligent Lane Intervention and Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention. There is also an available Intelligent Around View Monitor for more viewpoints around the Rogue than the standard rearview camera. While it’s still important that your teen understands the importance of being attentive and obeying traffic laws, having a vehicle that is equipped with these features helps to avert dangers related to the unexpected. Driving can be unpredictable, so it’s nice to know Nissan has your back with the Nissan Safety Shield 360.
<h2>Outside Ratings of the Rogue’s Safety</h2>
It’s reassuring to know that third-party agencies have a thing or two to say about the proven safety of the Nissan Rogue. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) ranks vehicles for overall safety based on a number of factors and gives a score of up to five stars for each vehicle they rank. In order to earn a five-star rating from the NHTSA, a vehicle must have good ratings on the front, side, roof strength, and head restraint. The 2023 Nissan Rogue earned a five-star overall safety rating from the NHTSA. It’s also worth noting that the 2023 Nissan Rogue earned the distinction of being a Top Safety Pick from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

<h2>Make Good Choices</h2>
Driving safely is about choices. While we can’t control other drivers or traffic, we can control the decisions we make behind the wheel, including choosing a vehicle with the features that are there to help us detect hazards and prevent accidents. Whether your teen driver is just applying for their permit or already licensed, you can be a good influence by practicing good driving habits with them each time you’re together. Make sure your teen understands the importance of being safe and building good driving habits. Emphasize the importance of never using their devices and keeping their eyes on the road. Help them understand that speeding is dangerous and that obeying traffic laws is a key part of being safe behind the wheel. Finally, get them a vehicle that will give you peace of mind.

The Nissan Rogue is there to help with their safety and driver assistance features, as well as their high overall safety ratings granted by the third-party agencies that rank companies on our behalf.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1168" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/05/used-Nissan-dealer-2016-Nissan-Rogue-Blue-1.jpg" alt="A blue 2016 Nissan Rogue is shown from the side driving on an open road." width="1000" height="550" />

Nissan vehicles are known for their excellent resale value because even a pre-owned Nissan tends to have many good miles left on it. As a <a href="/wlp/used-nissan-dealer/"><strong>used Nissan dealer</strong></a>, we here at Raceway Nissan of Freehold always know that our customers will be satisfied with whatever vehicle we help to get them behind the wheel of. Nissan vehicles have always been known for their smooth handling and attractive designs, great connectivity and infotainment features, great safety ratings, and overall comfortable interiors. Nissan also offers an excellent range of body styles, arguably one of the most diverse of any manufacturer. With a broad range of sedans, SUVs, and trucks, there truly is a vehicle for everyone in the Nissan lineup.

Our team members are extremely knowledgeable in every model and generation, so if you visit us and let us know what you're looking for in a vehicle, we can show you several options that will fit your needs. However, we must say that we have an affinity for a few select models that consistently get rave reviews. There are some Nissans that you simply see everywhere, and it's because they have a reputation for excellence. If you're wondering which pre-owned model to consider, here are four of the best Nissan models on the used market.
<h2>The 2017 Nissan Leaf</h2>
The Leaf has always been a popular vehicle in the Nissan lineup among those looking for a low price and incredible fuel economy. This electric-powered hatchback is already wallet-friendly as a brand-new option, so used ones can be very affordable. The Leaf boasts agile handling and a super quiet engine. Plus, it's just a lot of fun to drive. Its onboard charger might not work as fast as people expect from current models (prepare for six or seven hours for a full charge); however, considering this vehicle's other great features, many think it's worth it.

It gets a roughly 107-mile range and is known for its surprisingly spacious interior with ample leg room for rear-seat drivers. The rear seats boast a split-folding design for times you need to create more cargo space. Convenient features like Bluetooth, satellite radio, and a USB port come standard, and even the base model gets heated front seats. All in all, the Nissan Leaf delivers tremendous volume with its small hatch design and low price tag.
<h2>The 2016 Nissan Quest</h2>
Occasionally, you might drive by an oddly long minivan and ask, "What's that?" It was probably the Quest, which some fans endearingly called the "family limousine" due to its dimensions. The Quest was discontinued for the 2016 year, as sales weren't great; however, the small following of this minivan had expressed disappointment when it went away. People who loved the Quest truly loved it.

This people hauler has seating for seven and a convenient second-row console for stashing those road trip essentials. The second and third-row seats fold flat, making it easy to stash bulky items and large gear when necessary. To make it even more obvious for whom the Quest was designed, there was even an available DVD rear entertainment system available back in the day. This is, of course, a dream come true for parents who want to keep the "Are we there yet?" complaints at bay on long drives.

The Quest boasts a powerful V6 engine, impressive horsepower and torque, giving it a behind-the-wheel feel that is distinctly not minivan-like. It is also known for its precise steering and heated, comfortable front seats designed to reduce fatigue. As we said, you'll either love or hate the Quest; we've never found anyone who feels neutral about "the family limo."

<h2>The 2016 Nissan Rogue</h2>
The Rogue continues to be a popular compact SUV in the Nissan lineup today. However, those looking for an incredible deal on this stylish and powerful option should check out a 2016 model. The Rogue combines city-ready style with rugged handling and spacious seating for five. It can appeal to a range of drivers, including young corporate professionals, small families, and even occasional adventurers. It's known for its smooth ride and impeccable fuel economy, achieving praise-worthy 26 MPG in the city and 33 MPG on the highway. That's part of why commuters and road-trippers alike love the Rogue.

Even the 2016 model boasts notable connectivity tools, along with great driver assist features like automatic emergency braking on the top SL trim, and available Siri Eyes Free, which would allow you to use features of your phone with just your voice on some models. It also has a highly adjustable second row of seats for configurable cargo options.
The Rogue has classic looks and an upscale interior, which is why it's shown such amazing staying power.
<h2>The 2017 Nissan Altima</h2>
The Altima has long been a popular midsize sedan in the Nissan family. It delivers consistently smooth handling and offers a powerful V6 engine with a whopping 270 hp, which means this car never feels like it lags in responding to increases in acceleration. Its dimensions make it perfect for busy city streets and tight parking spots. Still, its cabin is deceptively large and comfortable for tall riders. Passengers won't feel cramped during long drives in the Altima. It has particularly received compliments for its front seats, which reduce driver fatigue.

Depending on the model you snag, you might find some features that up the luxury points, like a moonroof, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel. Meanwhile, useful connectivity features like Bluetooth and a USB port come standard across the trims. Higher trims offer fun perks like a quality Bose audio system, ideal for audiophiles, and a handy built-in navigation system. For its vehicle category, the 2016 Rogue boasts a solid trunk size, too, with 15 cu.ft. of available space. Plus, the Altima continues Nissan's legacy of making fuel-efficient vehicles, getting 27 MPG in the city and 39 MPG on the highway. Depending on exactly which one you snag, you might see a different exterior, as Nissan did a mid-cycle redesign on the headlights, taillights, hood, and fenders.

        <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <img class="aligncenter wp-image-975 size-full" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/04/Nissan-dealer-near-Marlboro-NJ-2023-Nissan-Altima-Parked-2-1.jpg" alt="A red 2023 Nissan Altima SL is shown parked after visiting Raceway Nissan of Freehold, a Nissan dealer near Marlboro, NJ." width="1000" height="550" />

The midsize Altima is one of those sedans drivers can always count on. It’s sturdy, efficient, reliable, and safe, which is the perfect recipe for success on the road. If you’ve got your eye on the Altima and you’re searching for the right <a href="/wlp/nissan-dealer-near-marlboro-nj/"><strong>Nissan dealer near Marlboro, NJ</strong></a>, look no further than Raceway Nissan of Freehold. We feature an exceptional lot full of Nissan favorites, including the Altima, and if you want to take advantage of some of the latest Altima advancements, you’ll want to take a closer look at the 2023 Altima. Not only is it armed with new features and tech, but it also showcases revised styling, making it even more appealing to drivers across the nation who prioritize the experience they have on the road.
<h2>A Refreshed Look</h2>
The enhancements to the 2023 Altima will be apparent from the moment it saunters towards you on the street. Sporting the dazzling new Nissan logo, plus a new front fascia, its presence is absolutely fascinating. Its glowing LED lighting elements add intense style, as well as extreme functionality, to this practical traveler, while new paint colors in its arsenal provide the finishing touches on this esteemed everyday driver. Its sturdy build remains, and with ample trunk space of 15.9 cu.ft., the Altima continues to be a go-to option for those who need to travel with more gear. From strollers to work materials, luggage to sports equipment, the Altima’s favorable design can handle anything.

You’ll also notice a more sophisticated look inside, with available leather-appointed seating and power front seats to help you enjoy your time on the road like never before. Matte-chrome accents create a modern feeling inside, while available carbon fiber elements elevate the status of the Altima to luxury-like levels. Zero gravity seats set the Altima apart from others in its class, creating the ideal atmosphere to sit back and relax during any journey, especially when that journey consists of being stuck in traffic.

Plus, with heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, dual-zone automatic climate control, and more available features, getting comfortable even when it’s chilly outside is easy inside the Altima. Impressive legroom throughout, plus a 60/40-split rear seat allows you to handle more gear, while also helping your passengers remain cozy on board, making the Altima one of the best-equipped sedans on the market when comfort is key.
<h2>New Standard Safety Features</h2>
The Altima is known to be a safe sedan, which is why you see so many families trusting it to help them shuttle around their precious cargo. For 2023, it becomes even safer, with a slew of standard safety features added to its repertoire to make it even more confident anywhere it’s traveling. From standard Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection to Blind Spot Warnings, Rear Automatic Braking, and more, the 2023 Altima is loaded with helpful features designed to keep you as safe as possible on the road. Through Nissan’s acclaimed Safety Shield 360 suite, access to advanced safety tech is a given when traveling in the Altima.

Your confidence on the road is taken a step further with available features, like an Intelligent Around View Monitor, which showcases a 360-degree viewpoint around your vehicle, making it easy to navigate through city traffic and busy parking lots. Another feature drivers love is ProPILOT Assist, which comes in handy to help you remain centered in your lane, traveling within a safe distance from the cars around you. This is extremely helpful when maneuvering through dense interstate traffic or unfamiliar territory, as your Altima steps up to act as a true assistant during your journey. The Altima is loaded with features that prioritize your safety. With an advanced airbag system and zone body construction, which utilizes crumple zones strategically placed around your vehicle, your safety is taken very seriously.

<h2>Trim Levels for 2023</h2>
You’ll find that the trim lineup for 2023 has been tweaked, with its top-tier trim now known as the SL. This upscale trim, along with the equally alluring SR, now comes equipped with a standard 12.3-inch touchscreen display, which is an available add-on in the mid-level SV. You’ll find comfortable leather-appointed seating elements and acoustic laminated glass to provide a tranquil oasis on the road when you choose the top-level SL model, while the SR showcases a sportier appeal. From a sport-tuned suspension system to a dark chrome V-Motion grille, the SR’s athleticism shines brightly inside and out.

Its mid-level SV is a fan favorite, offering plenty of tech, including a standard 8-inch color display and smartphone integration, blended seamlessly with high-end design. With 17-inch machined aluminum alloy wheels and a chiseled physique, the SV showcases a quality experience for an affordable price. Finally, its base S welcomes you into the Altima family with open arms, providing you with a cozy, modern interior cabin space, top-level safety tech, and 16-inch steel wheels to set the tone of your drive anywhere the road is taking you next. With the selection of versatile trims available in the 2023 Altima lineup, you’re sure to find the Altima model that fits your needs and budget perfectly.
<h2>Engine Performance</h2>
You’ll find two engines offered in the 2023 Altima, a 2.5L four-cylinder and the industry favorite 2.0L VC Turbo four-cylinder that makes your time on the road mesmerizing. Utilizing a variable compression ratio, as opposed to a fixed compression ratio that you see in other cars, the VC Turbo can offer the best of both worlds—power, and efficiency blended seamlessly together. Armed with 248 hp driving it forward, the VC Turbo showcases a brilliant ride filled with adrenaline, yet when it comes to efficiency, it excels there too. Getting up to 25 MPG in the city and 34 MPG on the highway, when you equip this Nissan favorite with one of the most impressive engines in the industry, you get to have it all in your ride.

The Altima also excels in challenging driving environments with the help of available all-wheel drive capabilities. Its Intelligent All-Wheel Drive System sends power to its front wheels to enhance efficiency during everyday driving conditions, and when the terrain becomes difficult, it allocates its power to all four wheels to enhance its traction and stability. Its accurate steering and easy handling make the Altima an absolute favorite among drivers. Plus, with its specially tuned suspension system featuring monotube rear shocks, any ride will be comfortable, no matter how bumpy the terrain is on the way to your destination.

Nissan SUVs are some of the toughest vehicles out there. Whether you’re looking to hit the open road to find adventure or take the kids to soccer practice, a Nissan SUV can give you the power and reliability you need to tackle hard work and play. These vehicles offer something special, and they each bring something unique to the table, so no matter what you may need out of a vehicle, you’ll be sure to find a Nissan SUV that can handle it.

For those looking for a comfortable SUV, the question may emerge: which Nissan SUV can offer the best comfort, convenience, and luxury? As a trusted <a href="/wlp/nissan-dealer-near-marlboro-nj/"><strong>Nissan dealer near Marlboro, NJ</strong></a>, we know a thing or two about these vehicles here at Raceway Nissan of Freehold. We can confidently say that for those looking for an SUV that can make you feel like you’re on top of the world with each ride, the Nissan Rogue is exactly what you’re looking for in an affordable midsize package.

Since 2007, the Rogue has been offering the best, most well-balanced SUV experience that marries performance and efficiency, emphasizing comfort and convenience. The Rogue is already tried-and-true as far as reliable SUVs go, and with the 2023 Rogue now hitting the scene, there’s a whole new world of comfort you can get out of your SUV. Here are a few reasons why the 2023 Nissan Rogue is the most opulent midsize SUV out there.
<h2>Bold on the Outside, Comfortable on the Inside</h2>
To start, the 2023 Nissan Rogue actively sets the bar for what style should look like in an SUV. Its exterior is sleek and bold, exuding capability, coming in nine colors, including Glacier White, Scarlet Ember Tintcoat, Brilliant Silver Metallic, Champagne Silver Metallic, Super Black, Caspian Blue Metallic, Gun Metallic, Pearl White TriCoat, or Boulder Gray Pearl, meaning you can customize your Rogue so it fits your style. The front grille invokes a sense of intimidating strength with its contoured, narrow headlamps, making it clear that the Nissan Rogue is sturdy, strong, and ready for anything.

But there’s so much more to this SUV than what’s on the outside. Within, the 2023 Rogue’s interior has been improved to the highest degree we’ve ever seen in the vehicle’s production, only utilizing the highest quality materials, such as available premium leather seating that gives its five riders the sense that they’re sitting on a comfortable sofa more than the interior of an SUV. With plenty of head and legroom, the 2023 Rogue lets passengers spread out, so everyone has their own space for the journey, making it perfect for outings with large groups or daily commutes with family. Additionally, its available 12.3 digital dashboard has been designed to be highly functional while aligning with the vehicle’s distinct, contoured style, making it as attractive to look at as helpful.

The 2023 Nissan Rogue also offers a handful of convenient amenities streamlining various aspects of your SUV experience, such as entertainment and comfort. To start, the 2023 Rogue offers an available memory system that saves custom seat and mirror position presets, so you don’t ever have to worry about fumbling with position controls to get things exactly the way you want them again.

The 2023 Rogue’s available dual panel panoramic moonroof ensures that passengers in the backseats never miss the sights outside the vehicle, making them feel more connected with their surroundings and able to properly appreciate the beauty outside, from cloud watching during the day to star gazing at night. And as far as entertainment is concerned, the 2023 Rogue’s infotainment system is compatible with Apple Carplay and Android Auto and functions in tandem with an available Bose Premium Audio surround sound system, so you can immerse yourself in your music as you make your way to your destination.

Other convenience features include the available motion-activated liftgate, so you can get into the Rogue when your hands are full, allowing access to the Rogue’s ample cargo space with ease. Opt for the available Tri-Zone Automatic Temperature Control on higher-end trims so you and your passengers can manipulate the vehicle’s climate to your liking, allowing all on board to stay comfortable, no matter where they're sitting.

<h2>A Safe and Noise-Free Ride</h2>
Various technology features also aid in making the vehicle feel upscale and in a class of its own while also ensuring the safety of everyone riding. The digital driver display that makes important information available at a glance helps make the driving experience efficient, giving you the sense that this SUV is a nexus between the Rogue’s heads-up display and infotainment system of information and connectivity. Various safety features courtesy of the Nissan Safety Shield 360 suite also ensure that everyone who comes along for the journey can relax and be at ease, knowing that the 2023 Rogue is taking care of them every step of the way. These features include rear automatic braking, blind spot warning, rear cross traffic alert, and pedestrian detection, making the Nissan Rogue one of the safest SUVs on the market with its top-of-the-line advanced safety features.

The 2023 Nissan Rogue is also designed to be the quietest ride on the road. Utilizing noise-reducing insulation and acoustic glass helps to keep the noise of the outside world outside while keeping the interior cabin quiet and peaceful so that you can drive without distractions, and your passengers can relax, get some work done, or read a book. The 2023 Rogue’s quiet interior, paired with its suspension tuned to create the smoothest ride possible, makes passengers and drivers alike feel more like they’re gliding than driving, making every journey in the 2023 Nissan Rogue relaxing and enjoyable.

Nissan has always been at the forefront when it comes to producing trucks that are powerful, strong, and offer the highest and best utility for those looking to work or play in the great outdoors. Years of tried and true excellence have made Nissan a trusted and reliable source for trucks that can handle any and every situation with ease while maintaining comfort and the highest possible performance. Since the '50s, Nissan has been paving the way for excellent trucks, setting the bar for what a high-class, high-power truck should look like. We love talking about the history of Nissan trucks, as any <a href="https://www.racewaynissannj.com/wlp/nissan-dealer"><strong>Nissan dealer</strong></a> like us does, because its track record shows just how profoundly innovation goes hand-in-hand with Nissan trucks. But the past is the past, and now it’s time to look to the future. The Nissan legacy of excellence continues with the 2023 Nissan Frontier, and with its singular power, versatility, and class, it becomes clear, when looking at all it has to offer, that the future is now.
<h2>Power and Capability</h2>
When it comes to power, Nissan trucks have always been in a league of their own. This is especially true of the 2023 Frontier, which is more powerful than ever. To start, let’s go through the general points that make this year’s Frontier more powerful than the rest. Getting up to 310 horsepower, this Frontier carves its own path on the open road, making it the most powerful Frontier to date. In addition to this power, it also offers great fuel efficiency, getting up to 24 MPG on the highway. The 2023 Frontier is designed for adventuring, going off the beaten path, and exploring what the world has to offer. With a maximum towing capacity of 6,690 pounds, you can take any equipment, whether it be for work or recreation, with you on the way, making the Frontier immensely capable and trustworthy in any situation.

<img class="alignnone wp-image-732 size-full" src="https://di-uploads-pod15.dealerinspire.com/racewaynissanoffreehold/uploads/2023/04/interior-new-gen-frontier-back-seat.jpg" alt="The interior of a 2023 Nissan Frontier is shown from the back seat after leaving a Nissan dealer." width="1000" height="550" />

Now, let’s talk specifics because the 2023 Frontier shines inside and out. With its 3.8-liter V6 engine that can push the vehicle up to 310 horsepower, this Frontier packs a punch like never before. Coupled with a nine-speed transmission that bumps up acceleration and makes for seamless gear shifting, this truck is as powerful as it is nimble while letting you drive your own way. Skid plates shied the engine and oil pan from the elements, meaning you’ll spend less time in the shop and more time tearing it up in the wilderness. Bilstein shock absorbers help the truck handle the roughest terrain with ease, getting you anywhere you need to go, no matter how off-the-beaten-path it may be, and getting you there comfortably. But the improvements aren’t nearly just under the hood. This Frontier’s frame has been reinforced more than ever, so it can withstand your rough, off-road adventure more than any other truck, and coming in nine different colors, including the bold and distinct “Super Black,” the 2023 Frontier is the best-looking adventure vehicle you can find.

Don’t think that these impressive features make the 2023 Frontier any less comfortable. Quite the opposite, this year’s model is more comfortable than ever, offering more interior foot room, with seats that you’ll want to relax in even when you’re not driving. The Frontier also features all the connectivity and safety features you could possibly imagine. From Apple Carplay to intelligent cruise control, you can enjoy entertainment on your ride while knowing the 2023 Frontier is looking out for you and keeping you safe. Comfort, connectivity, and luxury make even the longest rides enjoyable.
<h2>Inside the 2023 Frontier</h2>
The 2023 Frontier’s boldness extends beyond what’s on the hood, as its interior offers singular comfort and class that will make anyone want to take a spin in it. Seating up to five people, the Frontier offers dynamic and comfortable seating with plenty of legroom for your companions to relax. Zero-gravity front seating reduces fatigue and offers peak comfort, evoking a sense of true weightlessness for those driving or sitting shotgun. Overhead, the sliding glass moonroof allows passengers to see the world outside from a new perspective, making riders of any age want to be in the moment and cloud watch, star gaze, or just appreciate the beauty of the world around them while on the move. In the colder times of year, you don’t need to worry about waiting for the 2023 Frontier to heat up. Fast-heating seats and steering wheel make the truck comfortable quickly, and this feature can even be utilized with the Frontier’s remote start, so it will be warm and inviting as soon as you step inside.

The Frontier is as high-tech as it is high-class, utilizing the best state-of-the-art technology out there, making this Nissan a nexus of connectivity. At the front of the vehicle, the nine-inch NissanConnect touchscreen offers the most versatile infotainment experience in any vehicle. With the most responsive touch screen seen in a Nissan to date, any information and entertainment you may need are available with ease, and it is compatible with Apple Carplay and Android Auto, so you can call control music and navigation on your phone without having to pull over and get it out.

Speaking of smartphones, the 2023 Frontier features a wireless charging pad that is smartphone friendly because who needs phone chords? But if a wired charge is what you need, the Frontier is certainly not lacking in options. For tech that does require chords, the truck has available USB-A and USB-C charging ports, assuring any and all tech that you bring on your journey can be charged on the ride. As if all those connectivity options weren’t enough, the NissanConnect app allows you to keep track of your Frontier from anywhere and even control certain features on the vehicle, such as remote start, locking/unlocking doors, lights, and horn, so you and the Frontier can work together to be ready for anything at a moments notice.
<h2>Safety</h2>
As is the case with all Nissan vehicles, safety is the top priority. Unparalleled performance, luxury, and connectivity mean nothing if it doesn’t come in a safe package, and Nissan takes that ideal to heart when manufacturing its vehicles. Well, the 2023 Frontier boasts safety features that work in tandem with its top-of-the-line technology without compromising its pinnacle performance, bringing brains and brawn together to make the safest high-performance truck out there. Automatic emergency braking and intelligent forward collision warning ensure that other drivers and any possible obstructions on the road ahead are always accounted for and kept at a safe distance, reducing the possibility of an accident by a large margin.

Road-gripping technology helps to maintain control of the vehicle when the elements are working against you. We’re no strangers to rain and snow here in New Jersey, so we know how treacherous it can get during torrential downpours and snow storms, and it’s especially nerve-wracking when you’re trying to get family or friends from one place to another safely in all of it. With its road-gripping technology, the 2023 Frontier can detect any possible loss of traction in its wheels, redirecting power to those that have the most control while also pulling back acceleration, ensuring you stay on the road, in control, and safe. Lane departure warnings help to keep you aware and alert of your surroundings, aiding you in keeping on course, and blind spot detection keeps you in the know about what’s happening around you, even when your eyes can’t see it. The 2023 Frontier offers the promise of the safest possible ride, and with all its safety precautions, you can focus more on enjoying the ride.
