Interior

The exciting look and feel of the new Murano?s exterior carries over to the interior. With zero-gravity seating and large, bright gauges, it may be hard to remember Murano is only inspired by fighter jets. Windshields and side windows are all large, giving the driver an excellent view of the road. Interior materials are the kind of quality you expect in a much higher-priced luxury SUV or crossover ? materials like the available Cashmere Leather, brushed silver accents and soft-to-the touch dash and door panel materials. All gauges and controls, including the turn-by-turn navigation system, are logically placed, ergonomic and designed to allow ease of use while letting the driver keep their attention on the road.

The Murano takes comfort to a whole new level for crossover vehicles in its price point, providing a wide selection of standard and available features like USB connections, NissanConnect smartphone interface, heated front and rear seats and the groundbreaking Intelligent Climate Control, a feature that ensures that your car seats will be nice and toasty whenever you?re ready to go. The new Nissan Murano is also built with versatility in mind. Seat up to five very comfortably or fold down and stow the seats with a simple pull of a lever and voila, you have space for almost 70 cubic feet of cargo ? and loading that cargo is easier than ever with Murano?s power liftgate.

Technology

Drivers have a hard time believing just how much technology is available ? much of it standard ? on the Nissan Murano. Today?s drivers want to stay connected while they?re on the road. NissanConnect allows you to do just that, providing drivers the opportunity to use many of their favorite smartphone apps safely while keeping your hands on the wheel.

You?ll have all the information you need ? and right in front of you, where you can see it and still watch the road -- with the Advanced Driver Assist Display. The large, 8-inch color touchscreen makes controlling the infotainment features a snap. And Valet Parking and the Around-View Mirror make parking easier than ever, even in tight spots.

Performance

We didn?t limit our jet inspiration to looks. The Nissan Murano looks great, but also has it where it counts. The aerodynamic design, combined with the efficient 3.5-liter V-6 engine allow the Murano to provide 28 mpg on the highway ? and a still impressive 21 mpg in the city ? while cranking out 260 hp. Whoever said you can?t have power and fuel economy both has never driven a Murano.

Safety

There?s no greater concern at Nissan than the safety of our drivers and their passengers. The Murano offers a wide array of safety features to help you avoid most accidents and to give you the best chance of walking away should you ever have a collision. Safety features include the Nissan Safety Shield, providing 360-degree awareness and alerts for potential obstacles, pedestrians, cars in your blind spots and any other potentially hazardous driving conditions. The Murano can even apply the brakes for you in an emergency situation to help you avoid an accident. In the event of a collision, our advanced airbag system keeps you as safe as possible, with front seat and roof mounted airbags.
