The 2026 Nissan Rogue continues to be a favorite among compact SUV enthusiasts. This model is well-loved for its striking appearance, advanced features, and exceptional ride quality. When looking at the Rogue lineup, many buyers compare the S and the Rock Creek Edition trims. We have put together a comparison to help you decide which is right for you.
Performance
A high-performance engine is standard across both of these configurations. A 1.5-liter, VC-Turbo three-cylinder engine provides the power, delivering 201 horsepower and a class-leading 225 lb-ft of torque. The engine is mated to a smooth-shifting continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT).
While you can add all-wheel drive to the Rogue S, the Rock Creek Edition comes with this capability standard. The Rock Creek trim is also optimized for off-road adventures with its specialized suspension, hill descent control, and rugged all-terrain tires.
Appearance
The Rogue S offers a very attractive starting point for the lineup. Standard equipment includes 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, and a bold front grille. Exterior color choices for the Rogue S include Glacier White, Super Black, and Gun Metallic.
If you choose the Rogue Rock Creek Edition, you'll get a much more rugged look. It features dark-painted wheels, a unique front fascia, and eye-catching Lava Red accents. A tubular roof rack with crossbars is also standard. Exclusive paint colors like Obsidian Green Pearl help the Rock Creek Edition stand out even more.
Features
The Rogue S is an impressive base model that doesn't compromise on comfort. It features Zero Gravity seats and an 8.0-inch touchscreen display compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Safety is also a priority, as every S trim comes with the Nissan Safety Shield 360 suite.
The Rock Creek Edition is outfitted with water-repellent synthetic leather, making it perfect for active lifestyles. An HD Around View Monitor with Off-Road Mode provides a better view of your surroundings on the trail. This trim also includes heated front seats, ProPILOT Assist, and a six-speaker audio setup.
