New Nissan Smart Rearview Mirror

Does anyone know when Nissan will start offering the Smart Rearview Mirror?

I would like to add one to my 2014 Rogue.

Probably never in the US.

Nissan claims this new tech will see a rollout to "global markets" in 2015, although whether that includes the US remains uncertain. "As a global car company, we have the ability to tap into a lot of technologies," Nissan spokesman Dan Bedore tells Autoblog. "[Smart Rearview Mirror] is something we'd be interested in, but we don't have a US-specific announcement." We're also left wondering if a technology that soaks up the entire standard rearview mirror image in favor of a video feed is legal under Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. We've seen other production mirrors that integrate rearview camera displays, but they have always left the lion's share of the mirror's reflective element in place at all times.

Their current "Around View" system is fantastic - I really enjoy it for both backing and pulling into a tight parking space.
Others are amazed when first viewing it.
