As a stylish crossover SUV, the Murano has no peer. A powerful 240-bhp 3.5L V-6, combined with an XTronic® CVT (continuously variable transmission) guarantee sprightly acceleration. Since the Murano lacks a transfer case, it is not suited for serious off-road travel. The 5-passenger Murano is available in FWD and AWD variants. A sport suspension, standard on the SE model, enhances on-road handling. Nissan offers a 225-watt Bose® CD audio system on all Muranos.
