Car Detail

The Nissan Murano is an SUV that captures the spirit of a sports coupe but boasts the interior space of a large executive car. It is the most luxurious 4x4 in Nissan’s line-up and similar in length to the Pathfinder 4x4.

The Nissan Murano exerts a unique appeal. It fuses dynamic, eye-catching design with finely-honed road manners that include secure handling, a refined yet hard-edged V6 engine and All Mode 4x4, which is a sophisticated four-wheel drive system. Safety features are uncompromising.

The five-seat cabin is roomy and extremely well specified even by Nissan’s generous standards. There’s also a good-sized boot so the Nissan Murano is a practical SUV as well as a plush-furnished, comfortable and sporting one.

The Nissan Murano has five doors, five seats and a 438-litre boot that can be extended to 877 litres by folding the 60:40 split rear seat. There is one model in the line-up and equipment levels are comprehensive.

As standard, it features a Birdview DVD satellite navigation, seven-inch colour monitor, reversing camera and a seven-speaker Bose sound system with six-disc CD autochanger and controls mounted on the steering wheel. The leather-trimmed cabin also includes heated front seats, climate control, powered driving seat and four electric windows.

>Outside, the Nissan Murano is equipped with 18-inch alloy wheels, bi-xenon headlights, roof rails, rear side privacy glass and an electric sunroof.

The Nissan Murano harnesses the latest technology to ensure its occupants are supremely well protected. Every Nissan Murano has ESP+ electronic stability control, which is linked to an Active Brake Limited Slip Differential and Traction Control System to manage engine power and brake pressure.

There’s also ABS anti-lock brakes, EBD (electronic brakeforce distribution) and Brake Assist. Active safety is furthered by the extra illumination of bi-xenon headlamps, the surefootedness of All Mode 4x4 and an excellent view of the road ahead from the elevated driving position.

The Nissan Murano’s structure is engineered to provide maximum strength in a collision. Occupants also have the reassurance of six airbags, including full-length curtain airbags, anti-whiplash front head restraints and ISOFIX child seat mounting points.

The Nissan Murano’s V6 engine meets the strict Euro4 emissions standards and its CO2 output is rated at 295g/km.

The Nissan Murano is powered by a specially tuned version of the engine used in the 350Z sports model. For the Nissan Murano, this smooth, free-revving 3.5-litre V6 petrol engine delivers 234bhp, which results in effortlessly sporting performance. It’s backed by a muscular 318Nm of pull at 3600rpm for enhanced mid-range responses. Together, they endow the Nissan Murano with 124mph performance and the ability to reach 62mph from a standing start in 8.9 seconds.

As well as dynamic responses, an equally strong attribute of this engine is its refinement. The technical configuration of a V6 makes it innately smooth in its delivery of power. In addition, the Nissan Murano’s engine features a 24-valve double-overhead-cam design with lightweight aluminium components and advanced variable valve timing. This arrangement helps with fuel efficiency too and despite its strong pace, the Nissan Murano is capable of 23mpg on the official combined cycle.The V6 drives through an Xtronic CVT (continuously variable transmission) automatic gearbox, which heightens responses yet makes for relaxed driving in stop-start traffic.

The Nissan Murano features All Mode 4x4, which is a sophisticated four-wheel drive system that maximises traction in all conditions by automatically directing torque to the wheels where it can be used best.

Unlike some cars where there are a number of trim levels or engines, the Nissan Murano takes a simpler approach and is offered as a single model that costs £34,995. As the roster of standard equipment is so extensive there are few optional extras. The Nissan Murano with rear DVD system costs £35,495.
