2025 Nissan Rogue Rock Creek | Review & Road Test

[@NicholasGiles]

Mike got his shoes dirty for a review! I call this dedication.

[@yesmikedanger]

Those shoes got TRASHED 😭😭😭 it made me buy some new ones

[@cadesmith5726]

To the people in the comments: Yeah this thing is obviously not gonna tear up off road trails. But most off road suv owners never touch dirt anyways, so why add all that useless equipment and cost when people just like the aesthetic? There’s jeeps and broncos for people who want them, but for someone who just wants a “rugged” look this works perfectly

[@BrendaGardner-q3v]

My husband has 2024 and he loves it

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Great review Mike!😸

[@ATLOffroad]

I rented at lower trim 2024 Rogue for 5 days. It was quite nice with lots of interior space for a compact SUV. My biggest complaint is the engine whine at high RPM and the sluggish CVT. This Rock Creek appearance package looks good though.

[@kmckenzie2461]

This looks amazing! I love it. I think it looks much better than the Pathfinder Rock Creek. For some reason the Pathfinder Rock Creek looks like it sits lower or there something about it that looks off. Where as the Rogue Rock Creek wow they nailed it! Super Sharp especially in the color in the video and in the Boulder Gray. Just wish they wuda added the larger 12 inch touch screen as that is the one major miss.

[@yesmikedanger]

Love this input!

[@Powerfade54]

They mentioned the premium page costs an extra $800. I would imagine this would include the larger screen size?

[@denault3985]

A rock crawler without skidplates, CVT, and a three-cylinder engine, you got to be kidding. It's only in appearance.

[@peterpanimg]

Rock Creek, not crawler my friend. It will creek over every rock

[@nissanhonda25]

honda does the same and youtubers fap to it

[@johnnylau77]

Honestly, how many know about what off road is! We al know that is a decorated baby car. Nobody would even bother take the latest pathfinder for off road. Spare tire inside the car already disqualified.

[@drn13355]

Yeah which is 99% of SUVS out there. If anyone truly wants to rock crawl they are going to need to do their own work on a body on frame vehicle of their choice. A skid plate isn't going to turn a unibody SUV into a rock crawler. Also this 3 cylinder turbo has more HP than my 2000 BMW 323I V6 had. HP doesn't mean s*** when off road anyway.

[@jacobflores6479]

It’s a trail riding SUV, not a rock crawler or off roader lol, those are what trucks and 4Runners are for.

[@timp1051]

Just looked at the exact model and color at the dealership this afternoon. Being Sunday they were closed. It definately caught my eye. I think it is a gorgeous vehicle. I wonder how the motor and cvt transmission would handle it if I was towing the rated 1500 lbs with four 210 lb men in the vehicle?

[@blue_lancer_es]

Vc engine and cvt transmission....thats a lot of variables.

[@patmullen9978]

And one constant. Unreliable.

[@AdarshRai-yc1gu]

Kelley Blue Book still hasn't reviewed & road-tested the Ineos Grenadier. I (or perhaps we all) would love to see one!

[@HALWG51]

I think the new Chevy Equinox Activ looks much better. The Chevrolet has less power, but it gives you a normal transmission in the AWD model. I'm also not a fan of the roof rack.

[@drivinginthedcbaarea]

What did they do to the front 🥴

[@gmo709]

Any steering wheel shifting paddles? Ok, a min later you confirmed it. Thx.

[@nissanhonda25]

This is cool

[@ALMX5DP]

@@nissanhonda25 a whopping 201hp and 225tq 1.5 3 cylinder. slow

[@nissanhonda25]

@@ALMX5DP so it makes more torque than a 4 cylinder civic si lol

[@ALMX5DP]

@@nissanhonda25 wow, impressive!

[@ashton6637ify]

Love it

[@vikvc]

I like the looks of it. This trim might be an option for those driving on gravel roads into hiking, fishing places next year if Nissan replicates what they are doing with the Murano 9 speed transmission. Other than that I don't know how to feel with a turbo engine.

[@urbanstrencan]

It looks quite good. I would love for Nissan to bring this package to European Qashqai

[@paultruesdale7680]

Nice looking styling, and the extra tech and some mild AT tires. Seriously though, just buy the S AWD or the SV AWD, plenty of AT tires available. Buy a suspension spacer kit or better still a Crosstrek Wilderness turnkey ready to really go compact crossover.

[@kevman949]

Seems to be confusion on whether or not this trim gets the propilot 2.1. A few outlets say it does, but the Nissan website says it's only available as a package on SL and Platinum.

[@magnoliap5824]

Intelligent cruise control? It will be a blue symbol/button on the steering wheel.

[@mc.charleymusic]

Nissan should just bring back the X-terra already they know that they want to

[@yesmikedanger]

Right?!

[@L1lton23]

So this model is ready for curb riding, or getting stuck on a rock in a creek. 😂

[@markrodriguez7025]

Are you the T-Mobile automated voice guy? Lol

[@bt022481]

I'll stick with my forester wilderness. Much more capable vehicle for around the same price or less.

[@trspotr]

Mike's feeling sick by now 😂

[@nickleblanc6240]

38k sticker price for a 3 cylinder engine is insane. If you finance that your paying well over 45k for a 1.5L SUV!! What is happening in the automotive industry!!

[@charlesheller4667]

Why can't NIssan bring back the Xterra? WTH?

[@jamez34]

is that silverado canyon in orange county?? hahaha

[@aequitas8749]

It's 1,000 lbs towing capacity is laughable.

[@Powerfade54]

1,500 lbs, but I agree. However, if towing is what you are after. Then you most likely wouldn't be looking in this class, anyway.

[@jflow08]

3-cylinders and a CVT? Heck no

[@BTC909]

VCT with a CVT this is a leaser. Nissan profit falls 99%. Sales are way down. The Versa (2025) may or may not be cancelled. The Altima (2026) is cancelled or is it? The Maxima (2023) is already gone. The Leaf is cancelled, no wait, it's back. Nothing but confidence inspiring news Nissan.

[@simmysharma6845]

beeeeeeeee 😱

[@mraetnts]

........because nothing screams off-road and adventure more than.........uh, Nissan?

[@magnoliap5824]

Pathfinder rock Creek, Frontier, Titan if you can find one…

[@mraetnts]

@@magnoliap5824 yeah there's a reason the Titan is being discontinued this year.

[@rydgevilla8643]

They are moving towards the right direction

[@bluehydro88]

Nissan really needs to let go of your l their ego and ditch the CVT... a lot of brands dropped them because of how unreliable they are. In fact most of the reliability issues Nissan has is due to the use of CVT's. Otherwise this would be a nice SUV. It even looks much better than before.

[@Monk7uvi]

Who will buy Nissan??

[@magnoliap5824]

Plenty of people buy this Japanese auto brand. Myself included.

[@Powerfade54]

Who would buy a Chevy? Nissans are made here in Tennessee.

[@EktaGolpoBolarChhilo]

Aftermarket accessories with the same mechanicals..how is it rock creek then?? No logic!

[@KimberlyMyers-s3f]

[@togurilee1548]

Outdated interior … compared to the new

[@Jonathan-bk3dq]

CVT's are just not made for off roading. This really is nothing more than an appearance package.

[@NS327-t7h]

Basically any "off-road" oriented trim in a crossover is an appearance package. The only off-road trim that actually adds something meaningful is the Subaru Wilderness trim. That gives you CVT coolers, a shorter final drive ratio, and a little extra ground clearance.

[@Powerfade54]

If you are really into off roading. Then any stock SUV is not an option. Serious off roaders build their own or at least seriously modify a stock off roader.
