Rogue AWD
For snowy commutes and weekend travel, consider an AWD Rogue. Rock Creek AWD adds all-terrain tires, but proper winter tires may still be beneficial.
Altima AWD
For drivers who prefer a sedan, select Altima AWD configurations offer added traction when accelerating on slippery roads.
Sentra FWD with winter tires
Sentra does not offer AWD. Properly fitted winter tires can improve winter traction, braking and steering on cold, snowy roads.
AWD helps manage power delivery and traction; it does not shorten stopping distances on ice or replace winter tires, careful driving and adequate following distance. Verify tire fitment for your exact vehicle.
