Production of the 2021 Nissan Rogue launched Tuesday at the Nissan North America assembly plant in Smyrna, Tennessee.
President Donald Trump praised the launch in a tweet early Tuesday, prompting additional praise for the company from Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee.
“We are proud that Nissan has called Tennessee home for 37 years,” Lee wrote in a tweet. “We celebrate this exciting milestone with the entire Nissan team!”

The 2021 Rogue crossover features three digital displays, including a display that projects speed and navigation directions on its windshield. It also offers assisted driving technology that adjusts to the flow of traffic and can increase or decrease speed according to speed limits and upcoming turns and intersections.
Nissan North America’s Smyrna plant is the highest-volume assembly plant in North America with an annual production capacity of 640,000 vehicles. The plant employs about 7,000 people and produces the Nissan Altima, Maxima, LEAF, Pathfinder and INFINITI QX60 in addition to the Rogue.
Nissan’s Smyrna facility, the highest volume assembly plant in North America, produces six models.
