Star Wars fans, prepare to geek out: Nissan unveiled its Rogue One Star Wars Limited Edition Rogue today at the LA Auto Show. Nissan saw the obvious pairing of its AWD Rogue SUV and the new Star Wars spinoff Rogue One movie, and the piggyback for marketing is a perfect pairing. What’s more important is the Rogue One Rogue, which we can just call the Rogue One, is actually a cool limited vehicle.
The Rogue One is based on the SV trim of the new 2017 Rogue. It features a panoramic moonroof and optional all-wheel drive, with the power plant being the 170-hp four-cylinder engine paired with the Rogue’s CVT. The trim also features a proximity key with push button start, Bluetooth phone and streaming audio and Satellite Radio.

The Rogue One, of course, only comes in black or white. The black version, if you choose the dark side, really makes the black accents pop to give it a full Darth Vadar look. The white version, which, sorta, is also choosing the dark side, has more of a storm trooper look to it.
The good news is that each model does pay equal attention to the “Rebel Alliance” and “Galactic Empire” with badging, and there’s also a “Star Wars” logo rear bumper overlay and Rogue One badges on the front doors. More badges are found inside, with “Rebel Alliance” and “Galactic Empire” logos on the floor mats, cupholders, and even kickplates with a glowing Star Wars logo.
Each Rogue One also comes with an exclusively numbered, full-size replica Death Trooper helmet. It looks cool, and will surely look good on the display shelves of your den along with all the other Star Wars collectibles. Nissan will make just 5,400 Rogues with this package, 5,000 for the US and 400 for Canada.
