In 2016, the Rogue became Nissan's top-selling model for the first time, a total of 329,904 sales reflecting a 14.9 percent increase. The 2014 Rogue received the distinction of being the first automobile to be manufactured in South Korea for a Japanese automaker and sold under a Japanese brand, thanks to the Renault–Nissan Alliance, in which the Rogue is built by Renault Samsung Motors in Busan. Production of the Rogue crossover at South Korean manufacturer Renault Samsung Motors's Busan plant started in September 2014, with an annual capacity of about 80,000 units. Production of the 2014 Rogue began at Smyrna, Tennessee as the facility's 10 millionth vehicle. Early models included 2.5-liter 4-cylinder QR25DE engine rated 170 hp (127 kW) and 175 pound-feet (237 N⋅m), Xtronic CVT Jatco CVT8 with standard Sport Mode switch, 3 trims (S, SV and SL, each in a choice of front-wheel or all-wheel drive). US models went on sale in November 2013 as a 2014 model year vehicle. The vehicle was unveiled at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. For the 2018 model year, Nissan decided to drop the third row option in favor of optimizing interior passenger room and cargo utility space.

This generation has an interior size similar to Nissan's Murano, Altima and Maxima. Changes include optional third row 7 passenger seating, standard four-wheel independent suspension, electric power-assisted steering and four-wheel disc brakes with an anti-lock braking system. The second generation Rogue is a version of the Nissan X-Trail and inspired by the Hi-Cross Concept to adapt to the US and Canada markets.

Nissan then announced that 2015 would be the final year. It went on sale in January 2014 as a 2014 model year vehicle and was continued through 2015. The Rogue Select was offered only in the S trim level, with AWD being an option. Since the production capacity allowed for the first generation to be built in conjunction with the second generation, it allowed for a lower entry price to Rogue customers as well as fleet sales. The Select was a continuation of the first generation Rogue sold alongside an all-new Rogue that went on sale in 2013 as a 2014 model. In February 2012, Nissan recalled 2,983 MY 2012 versions of the Murano and Rogue, because the tire pressure monitoring system was not activated when the cars were assembled.

On 23 November 2011, Nissan announced a recall of 7,365 2011 Rogue vehicles for improperly manufactured electric power steering (EPS) assist units, which over time could cause the power assist feature to fail, causing a loss of power assist and an increased risk of an accident. Nissan vehicles with Garmin Navi 750, 760 and 765 GPS devices, which included Rogue sold with the Garmin devices between 20, were recalled in 2010 due to overheating. The SV is available with an optional SL package, adding leather seats, touch screen navigation system and 18' alloy wheels, along with other premium features.
