    TAMPA, FL, October 09, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- With its "Confidence Comes Standard" slogan, Cars.com is an online resource used by consumers when buying or selling new and used cars. In addition, buyers can also refer to the list of Top 10 Most Affordable Compact SUVs, where they will find the all-new 2014 Nissan Rogue at the very top. (1) With a starting price of only $22,790 MSRP, the 2014 Rogue is available at your Nissan of Tampa dealership.

"Often times, the most affordable car in a segment means it is the least-equipped base-level of a car," said Joe Wiesenfelder, the executive editor at Cars.com. "The redesigned Rogue defies this trend. It is easily competitive on features and efficiency with any other compact SUV, and it excels in refinement, styling and interior space." (1)

To appear on the top 10 list, contenders had to be equipped with several features, including an automatic transmission, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, backup camera and USB and Bluetooth connectivity. (1)
