Unboxing the Nissan Rogue: Rogue One Star Wars Limited Edition
For those of you not playing hooky to watch "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" today, we've got something else that is sure to entertain you.
Star Wars has some epic vehicles in its own right, but Nissan has the first production vehicle ever to include Star Wars-branded elements. We first saw the 2017 Nissan Rogue: Rogue One Star Wars Limited Edition at the 2016 Los Angeles Auto Show and were instantly blown out of this world (to a galaxy far, far away). With the movie opening today, we had to give this awesome vehicle another look.
If you're part of the Light Side, then you'll geek out at the pair of battle-ready, Rebel Alliance Rogues Nissan built. Unfortunately, these are both one-off cosplays.
Fortunately, there are 5,400 units made of the Magnetic Black and Glacier White limited edition 2017 Rogues you can purchase and finally know what it's like to park a Star Wars vehicle in your own garage.
Watch the video at the top to see Lewis from Unbox Therapy take you around all of the unique details inside and out of this SUV. But if you were to ask us what our favorite feature of this limited edition Rogue is, it's actually something that isn't part of the spec sheet at all (except we added it in ours below).
If you're a Star Wars fanatic thinking about purchasing this vehicle, consider this: each vehicle comes with an exclusive numbered, full-size replica collectible Death Trooper helmet!
