The engine is good, but it's only part of the recipe for success with the Altima's fuel mileage. The other part is the revised CVT with the insane final drive. The new Rogue in FWD configuration should do fantastic, but the thing I'm most curious about is if Nissan translates the final drive and overall CVT design to the AWD platform. Pretty sure they did it with the Pathfinder but it wasn't as dramatic due to the towing capability they wanted it to have. The Rogue should be a different story.
