With over 141,160 units sold in the first six months of 2024, the Rogue (X-Trail) has become the best-selling model for Nissan in the United States. This SUV received the Rock Creek edition as a facelift, targeted towards those with active lifestyles.

Derived from the larger Pathfinder, the Rock Creek edition of the Rogue showcases minor enhancements to conquer off-road terrains, such as 17-inch black rims, Falken Wild Peak all-terrain tires, and Hill Descent Control for easier maneuvering on steep surfaces. Additionally, the Off-Road View feature provides a display to help navigate obstacles while tackling challenging trails. This mode can be activated up to a speed of 19 km/h.

Other additions include a glossy black grille and side mirrors, Lava Red accenting, and a tubular roof rack. Body color options consist of Everest White, Super Black, Boulder Gray, and the striking Baja Storm as depicted in the images.

Internally, the Rogue Rock Creek boasts waterproof leather upholstery with Lava Red accents, along with piano black panels on the dashboard. Heated seats come as standard, as well as a 12-volt socket in the cargo space.

The engine remains unchanged, a 1.5-liter turbo petrol producing 201hp and 305Nm of torque like the standard model. This 3-cylinder engine delivers power to the front wheels through a CVT gearbox.

The Nissan Rogue Rock Creek is priced starting at USD36,810 (RM161,027), with an additional USD800 (RM3,499) offering the Premium Package including a heated steering wheel, wireless charging pad, power liftgate with LED cabin lights, and memory function for the driver’s seat and side mirrors.

The Nissan X-Trail Mountain Rescue gets snow tracks and DJI drone

49 Comments

NISSAN has transformed the X-Trail from a regular SUV into an emergency vehicle for complete rescue operations, complete with snow chains, a winch, and rescue equipment.

The Nissan X-Trail Mountain Rescue Concept was showcased at the Cervinia ski resort in Italy. It was designed to remind the public to engage in skiing activities responsibly and ethically.

In addition to the four snow chain-equipped tires, enabling the X-Trail to carry out rescue missions in snowy mountains, Nissan has provided a special roof rack.

It comes with special lights, emergency sirens, a winch, and even includes skis and a snow shovel. The X-Trail is also fitted with larger and wider fenders, tow points, a winch cable, floodlights, and a 23cm higher ground clearance.

Upgrades continue inside where the vehicle is equipped with a Garmin GPS and Motorola communication devices. A major modification is in the rear, where the seats have been removed to accommodate stretchers. Additionally, it features rear-facing treatment seats.

Finally, there is a storage cabinet containing emergency supplies such as a snow depth gauge and a thermal blanket. There is also space for accommodating a DJI drone!

Although this concept outlines responsible skiing ethics, it also showcases the e-4ORCE all-wheel-drive system on the X-Trail.

According to Nissan, it can respond to changes in grip at a rate of 1/10,000th of a second, which is over 1,000 times faster than conventional systems. The e-4ORCE can also distribute power according to grip levels.
