After introducing the updated Nissan Pathfinder last year, Nissan is sticking with its theme of ‘return to rugged’ with the addition of the new, bolder, off-road inspired 2023 Pathfinder Rock Creek. Offered in four-wheel drive only, Pathfinder Rock Creek is designed for buyers seeking a higher level of fun and adventure, without compromising the family comfort and conveniences of other Pathfinder trims.

According to Car and Driver, the Pathfinder Rock Creek package includes a suspension lift, different wheels and tires, a roof rack, and other few styling differences inside and out. The front end has a different grille and fascia, and Rock Creek badges adorn the front doors and tailgate. Inside, the SUV has leatherette and fabric upholstery with embroidered Rock Creek logos on the seats.
