New Rock Creek Package Adds More Capability
The biggest change for 2027 is the addition of the Kicks Rock Creek package, available on the SV grade and equipped with standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive.
The package adds an exclusive Off-Road driving mode designed to allow additional wheel slip and help maintain momentum on surfaces such as gravel, sand, and snow. Hill Descent Control is also included to help manage vehicle speed when traveling downhill on loose terrain.
Those features could make the Rock Creek version a fit for businesses whose drivers routinely leave paved roads, travel between jobsites, or operate in areas where weather and road conditions can change quickly.
