Nissan Murano

 Nissan Murano

The Nissan Murano was one of the first midsize crossovers to be introduced in the United States. As with other vehicles in this segment, the Murano combines the driving attributes of a car with the elevated seating position and versatility of a sport-utility vehicle. Also in its favor is a spacious interior, a powerful V6 engine and distinctive styling.

Since its introduction in 2003, the Murano has been one of Nissan’s best-selling SUVs. Particularly when compared with the rugged truck-based SUVs in Nissan’s lineup, the Murano’s classy, sculptural lines stand out. Rounded edges mask the crossover’s substantial size, translating into a surprising amount of cargo and passenger space inside.

A recent redesign for the Murano featured subtle styling changes and more significant mechanical and interior upgrades, but it generally adhered to the formula established by its predecessor. As ever, with its car-based platform and available on-road-biased all-wheel-drive system, the Murano is definitely not made for rock-crawling. But on the road, where most SUVs will stay anyway, the Murano is a smooth operator and certainly one of the smoothest of its breed.
