Nissan Rogue Goes To A Galaxy Far Far Away In Crazy Star Wars Ad

Nissan is one of five brands who have joined hands with Lucasfilm to promote the first-ever standalone Star Wars story and the carmaker has unveiled a special edition of the Rogue SUV as part of the promotion campaign.

The special edition car which is called the Nissan Rogue: Rogue One Star Wars Limited Edition will make its official debut at the 2016 LA Auto Show.

All owners of the limited edition SUV will receive a numbered, limited-edition, full-sized-replica Death Trooper helmet with each purchase of the limited edition crossover.

The ad which goes by the name Battle Tested, sees the SUV at a fictional Nissan facility as it begins a holographic test session.

However instead of normal real world scenarios, this simulation sends the Rogue in the middle of a Star Wars battle between rebels and the forces of the empire with blaster bolts flying everywhere.

'Battle Tested' will hit TV screens in the US as the 30-second video seen below.

American film goers will be able to see a 60 second version at the theaters.

Star Wars: Rogue One will hit theaters on December 16.
