Murano will continue to appeal to customers who appreciate the fusion of the dynamic driving characteristics of a luxury saloon and the security, space and desirability of an SUV. But it is now quicker, more economical to run, sportier yet more refined to drive, and boasts a sumptuous, contemporary interior clad in a more elegant, all-new exterior.
Once again options are restricted to metallic paint, thanks to an extensive standard specification. A very simple range consists of two equipment-packed models distinguished from each other by a choice of a sunlight-friendly large two-part sunroof, priced at £32,795 or family-friendly roof-mounted DVD, for £33,295.
All Murano customers enjoy a specification that includes 18 inch alloys, Birdview DVD satellite navigation with TMC, rear privacy glass, bi-xenon headlamps, cruise control and an in-dash six-disc CD player with aux-in socket for MP3 players. There’s the convenience of Nissan’s Intelligent Key for easy keyless-access and once seated, front seat occupants can find the ideal position thanks to powered front seats and steering wheel complete with memory setting.
They’ll also enjoy the rich audio experience delivered by a premium Bose audio system with 10-channel amp via 11 carefully positioned speakers, including a pair of Richbass woofers mounted in the spare wheel well.
The original Murano helped pioneer rear view cameras and the new model goes one step further with a kerb camera mounted within the passenger door mirror. At speeds up to 12 mph it displays images of the ground beside the car on the 7 inch colour sat nav screen, showing the proximity of walls, kerbs and otherwise obscured obstacles. Like the rear-view parking camera, it uses infrared LED lighting to enable it to function at night.
Murano’s new interior is an altogether more cosseting experience with abundant use of high quality, soft touch materials and upholstery trimmed in charcoal or beige leather, double stitched for added exclusivity. Together with aluminium detailing and subtle ambient mood lighting, the cabin is now more luxury saloon than sporting SUV.
The climate control air conditioning has been enhanced with a mild flow vent which dissipates air around the cabin rather than directly at occupants.
Rear seats split 60/40 and are lowered simply by pulling a lever in the luggage area; but raising them is even easier; press a button on the dashboard or in the cargo area and the seats automatically move into position in just 8 seconds.
And the convenience continues with a power operated tailgate which can be opened and closed by remote control in 7.0 secs and 9.0 seconds respectively, via a button on the key fob, dashboard or tailgate itself.
