Cardinale Nissan - How Google built-in and 3D Around View® Monitor Help Everyday Driving around Salinas, CA
The latest Rogue® brings together meaningful innovations that simplify daily driving without distracting from the road. For many drivers, two features stand out: available Google built-in, which turns the SUV into a natural extension of your digital life, and the available 3D Around View® Monitor with Invisible Hood View, which helps with precision parking and navigating tight spaces. These technologies work quietly in the background, letting you focus on driving while they streamline navigation, visibility, and access to the information you need most. If you regularly juggle school drop-offs, a cross-town commute, and a quick stop at the trailhead, the way these features integrate can save time and reduce stress.
Google built-in lets you use Google Assistant for voice control of Google Maps™, audio, and more, all from the Rogue’s high-resolution 12.3-inch touch-screen display. Ask for the fastest route, find a new coffee shop, or adjust in-vehicle settings—hands on the wheel, eyes forward. Because it’s built into the vehicle, you can download apps through Google Play and keep services updated with over-the-air updates. For families and connected professionals, that means fewer workarounds and a seamless experience from your phone to your SUV. Add wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ for even more flexibility, and include a Bose® Premium Audio System for clear calls and immersive sound on the go.
- Google built-in voice control: Use natural speech to set routes, tweak climate, and access apps
- Maps that stay current: Benefit from over-the-air updates and integrated Google Maps™
- 3D Around View® Monitor: Rotate camera views and see an enhanced perspective around the SUV
- Invisible Hood View: Gain a better view of obstacles directly ahead and below the front bumper
- Parking ease: Combine camera views with available Front, Rear, and Side Sonar System for precision placement
Equally helpful is the 3D Around View® Monitor with Invisible Hood View. It’s more than a backup camera; it provides a composite image from multiple cameras, letting you rotate the view to understand your surroundings before you move. The Invisible Hood View helps when edging into a tight spot or avoiding that sneaky curb. Pair this with available ProPILOT Assist for highway travel and Nissan Safety Shield® 360 for city streets, and the Rogue offers a reassuring, layered approach to safety. Intelligent Lane Intervention and Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention® can add gentle steering support when needed, while Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection and Rear Automatic Braking help watch out for the unexpected.
For a week that jumps from errands to after-work plans, small conveniences make a big difference. The Motion Activated Liftgate is a daily hero when your hands are full, and the divide-and-conquer logic of the Divide-N-Hide® cargo system keeps things tidy. When weather shifts, available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive and selectable drive modes help the Rogue adapt. It’s a cohesive experience that reflects thoughtful engineering—smarter software married to a chassis tuned for comfort and control.
