2026 Nissan Rogue Trims and Pricing | Empire Nissan in Ontario, CA
The 2026 Nissan Rogue offers six distinct trims — S, SV, Dark Armor, Rock Creek, SL, and Platinum — each designed to match different priorities and budgets. Whether you’re commuting through Ontario and Rancho Cucamonga or looking for a compact SUV with near-luxury appointments, the Rogue lineup has an option built for your lifestyle. Here’s a closer look at what each trim delivers and what you can expect to pay at Empire Nissan.
2026 Nissan Rogue Trim Levels
S — The Essential Foundation
The base S trim establishes a strong starting point with a 201-horsepower 1.5-liter VC-Turbo three-cylinder engine, Xtronic CVT, and front-wheel drive. Inside, an 8-inch touchscreen supports wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while Nissan Safety Shield 360 comes standard with automated emergency braking, blind-spot warning, lane-departure warning, and rear cross-traffic alert. Intelligent all-wheel drive is available for added traction.
SV — The Smart Upgrade
The SV adds meaningful daily-use features without a steep price increase: proximity keyless entry, push-button start, dual-zone automatic climate control, remote engine start, and an upgraded six-speaker audio system. A Cold Weather Package ($400) adds heated front seats and a heated steering wheel — a practical addition for cooler mornings in the Inland Empire. ProPILOT Assist is also standard starting at this trim, combining intelligent cruise control with steering assist for more relaxed highway driving around Ontario and Fontana. All-wheel drive remains available.
Dark Armor — Bold Blacked-Out Style (New for 2026)
New for 2026, the Dark Armor slots above the SV with an aggressive blacked-out aesthetic: gloss-black grille, mirror caps, pillar trim, and 19-inch gloss-black wheels topped with satin-black roof rails. Beyond styling, it adds a panoramic moonroof, HD Intelligent Around View Monitor with moving object detection, and heated PrimaTex leatherette front seats and steering wheel as standard. For drivers in San Bernardino and Fontana who want standout style paired with functional upgrades, the Dark Armor delivers both.
Rock Creek — Adventure-Ready Capability
The Rock Creek is built for drivers who occasionally leave the pavement. It comes exclusively with all-wheel drive and adds Falken Wildpeak all-terrain tires, hill descent control, a tubular roof rack with integrated crossbars, and rugged exterior styling with Lava Red accents. Inside, water-repellent leatherette seats with contrast stitching reinforce the outdoor-ready theme. Ground clearance matches the rest of the lineup at 8.2 inches, and while it’s not a dedicated off-road vehicle, the Rock Creek handles dirt roads and light trails with confidence — making it a versatile choice for drivers across the Riverside and Corona areas who balance suburban commuting with weekend adventures.
SL — Premium Comfort and Technology
The SL steps into premium territory with a 12.3-inch touchscreen featuring Google Built-In, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a Bose 10-speaker premium audio system. Leather-appointed seating and power-adjustable front seats elevate the cabin, while ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link uses navigation data to proactively adjust speed through highway curves and interchanges. An available motion-activated power liftgate adds hands-free convenience.
Platinum — Near-Luxury Experience
At the top of the lineup, the Platinum comes exclusively with all-wheel drive and combines every SL feature with quilted semi-aniline leather seating, a dual-panel panoramic moonroof, and ProPILOT Assist 2.1 with hands-free highway driving capability. Available with the Platinum Premium Package ($990), additional features include heated rear seats, a head-up display, motion-activated power liftgate, and tri-zone automatic climate control. The Platinum transforms the Rogue into a compelling alternative to entry-level luxury SUVs — without the premium price tag.

Performance and Fuel Economy
Every 2026 Rogue shares the same powertrain: a 1.5-liter VC-Turbo three-cylinder engine producing 201 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque, paired with an Xtronic CVT. Nissan’s variable compression technology continuously adjusts the engine’s compression ratio, optimizing the balance between power delivery and fuel efficiency in real time.
Acceleration from 0 to 60 mph is estimated at approximately 8 seconds — competitive within the compact SUV segment and well-suited for highway merging and everyday driving around Montclair and Ontario. When properly equipped, the Rogue can tow up to 1,500 pounds, enough for a small utility trailer or recreational gear.
EPA-Estimated Fuel Economy
| Configuration | City | Highway | Combined |
|---|---|---|---|
| S, SV, Dark Armor, SL (FWD) | 29 MPG | 36 MPG | 32 MPG |
| S, SV, Dark Armor, SL, Platinum (AWD) | 28 MPG | 35 MPG | 31 MPG |
| Rock Creek (AWD) | 27 MPG | 32 MPG | 29 MPG |
Rock Creek’s all-terrain tires slightly reduce fuel economy compared to other AWD trims. All figures are EPA estimates — actual mileage may vary with driving conditions.
Standard Safety and Technology
Nissan Safety Shield 360 is standard across every 2026 Rogue trim, providing automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind-spot warning, lane-departure warning, rear cross-traffic alert, and high beam assist. These systems deliver a proactive layer of driver assistance for navigating traffic across Ontario and the surrounding Inland Empire communities.
Higher trims build on this foundation with ProPILOT Assist (standard from SV), ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link (SL), and ProPILOT Assist 2.1 with available hands-free capability (Platinum) — each adding more refined semi-autonomous driving support.
