Rock Creek All the Things

Nissan currently has two off-road-oriented lines in its range. For the more rugged, body-on-frame models, those get the Pro-4X label, while the crossovers get the Rock Creek Edition tag. Currently, there's the Armada and Frontier Pro-4X, along with the Pathfinder and Rogue Rock Creek Edition.

Now it seems there will be another model that will receive the latter treatment. Instagram spy photog kindelauto snapped a shot of a covered-up Kicks sporting a roof rack, among other things. This suggests a Rock Creek Edition for the subcompact crossover.

Previewed in Canada?

During the Montreal Auto Show back in January, Nissan showed a Kicks outfitted with various accessories that made it look ready for the first. It didn't have a badge to say it was a Rock Creek Edition, but it did appear that Nissan was hinting at it at the very least. The car was also displayed right beside a Rogue Rock Creek Edition.

According to Canadian auto website RPM, the real deal will be released sometime this year, likely by Summer. The publication also reckons that it'll slot just below the SR Premium.
