Head to head
Trim-by-trim prices (last 4 model years)

Like for like: at the cheapest common trims, the Ford Bronco Sport BIG BEND ($27,535) faces the Nissan Rogue S ($20,485); the most common trims on the market are the BIG BEND (52.4% of Ford Bronco Sport listings) and the SV (65.3% of Nissan Rogue listings); at the top of the market, the BADLANDS ($32,995) faces the PLATINUM ($29,066).
