The Rogue just got its fourth generation, and Nissan is leading with the strangest version: the Rogue Hybrid, whose gasoline engine never drives the wheels. The 1.5-liter turbo three-cylinder is a generator; two electric motors do all the driving, for 225 horsepower, standard all-wheel drive, and an estimated 38 miles per gallon. The launch is thin and trim-simple: every Rogue Hybrid we could find in New England on November 13 was an SR, and across the nine A-grade Nissan dealers in CarThrive's fee-transparency ranking, only 29 distinct cars showed up, with three of the nine holding none at all. So where you buy splits into two questions: who has one, and whose paperwork is cleanest. On paperwork, Rhode Island takes the top three spots, four dealers grade 92 A, and every one of the top 15 itemizes its doc fee inside the advertised price.

The SUV, briefly

The fourth-generation Rogue arrives in stages. For 2027, the new body comes to the US only as the Rogue Hybrid with e-POWER: a series hybrid where the 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder (148 horsepower on its own) exists purely to generate electricity, and dual electric motors drive all four wheels. Total output is 225 horsepower, all-wheel drive is standard, and Nissan builds in one-pedal e-Pedal driving. Fuel economy is estimated at about 38 mpg combined (40 city, 36 highway on the SR). The SR is the launch trim, priced from $39,065 including the $1,575 destination charge; SV and Platinum versions follow in early 2027. Meanwhile the outgoing third-generation Rogue continues as the gas model for 2027, the short-lived Rogue Plug-In Hybrid (a rebadged Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV) is being phased out, and a new-generation gas Rogue follows as a 2028 model. Wheelbase is unchanged at 106.5 inches; the styling and cabin borrow from the Murano. If hybrid simplicity without a plug appeals to you, this is Nissan's answer, and right now it is a launch-allocation car.

The top 15, ranked

Ranking is by CarThrive fee-transparency grade first, then by the fee itself, then by Google rating. The grade scores five things: the fee amount, whether the fee sits inside the advertised price, how clearly the dealer discloses it, consistency across the dealer's own pages, and whether forced add-ons ride along. Nissan's top tier is unusually clean: all 15 dealers below score a perfect 30 of 30 on fee-in-price, so this ranking is decided almost entirely by the fee level itself. The count column is each store's new 2027 Rogue Hybrid stock on November 13, 2026, from its own inventory pages, SR trim only, because that is all Nissan is shipping.

Read the table as two rankings in one. The fee ranking says Tasca and Langway are where the paperwork costs least. The count column says neither had a Rogue Hybrid to sell on November 13. Both things are true at a model launch, and which one matters depends on your timeline: claim one of the 29 cars that exist, or order through a $399 store and wait for the next allocation.

The A-grade stores, and who actually has one

Every A-grade dealer (88 and up), with its new 2027 Rogue Hybrid count from November 13, 2026. One caution built into the numbers: the two Nucar stores list the same 13 stock numbers, a single shared group pool, so their cards both say 13 and the region's distinct total is 29 cars, not 42. Filter by state to narrow the list.

The $400 store at rank 15

One line in the table deserves a second look. Speedcraft Nissan of West Warwick charges a $400 doc fee, second-cheapest in this ranking, yet sits 15th at 79 B. The fee itself is real and itemized, but Speedcraft's own pages undercut it: its price stacks show a $420 "Doc & Title Fee" (its disclaimer splits that into a $400 doc fee and a $20 title fee), an unexplained $299 program line rides along, and its disclaimer contradicts itself about what is included. The grade is doing its job here. A cheap headline fee with messy paperwork around it is not the same product as a cheap fee at a store whose pages agree with each other, and on a launch car you may be ordering sight unseen, the paperwork is the product.

State averages frame the rest: doc fees average $415 in Rhode Island, $558 in Massachusetts, $550 in Maine, $553 in Vermont, $604 in New Hampshire, and $749 in Connecticut. Every dealer in the top nine beats its own state average.

The complete list, all six states. Scores are out of 100 on the fee-transparency rubric; A is 88 and up.

How to use this list

Decide your timeline first. If you want a Rogue Hybrid this month, the realistic list is short: the Nucar pool, the two Kelly stores' in-transit SRs, and Anchor's pair, and you should expect SR trim and launch pricing with little negotiation room. If you can wait a few weeks, ordering through a $399 or $420 store saves real money on the paperwork line alone, and the order locks the fee you see today. Either way, get the out-the-door figure in writing, with the doc fee and any add-ons named, before you put money down: on a car this scarce, the written number is the only number that counts.
