Overview & Reviews
The Nissan Murano was one of the first midsize crossovers introduced in the United States and quickly became a popular alternative to more traditional SUVs thanks to its taut, carlike driving character and avant-garde styling. Later Nissan Muranos are notable for their higher-quality interiors, updated technology features and higher fuel economy ratings.
New or used, the Murano is definitely worth a look if you're on the hunt for a midsize crossover with seating for five. In reviews, our editors have generally praised this Nissan's sophisticated appearance, stylish and comfortable interior and strong acceleration. Middling cargo capacity and poor rearward visibility are our main complaints about the Nissan Murano. You'll find competing models that are better on one or both of these counts, but most won't match the Murano's combination of performance and style.

"Nissan...the Murano is a 10!" - 2004 Nissan Murano
By Steve - March 20 - 5:50 pmBMW X-5 performance, Porsche Cayenne looks, and all for a fraction of the price...way to go Nissan! This SUV crossover smells and looks like success. The CVT transmission may lack 0 to 60 in 4.5 seconds, but I was not buying a sportscar. I wanted comfort and practicality and if this is what you seek, you will love this vehicle as I do. By far, this was the best car decision I ever made. Douglas Nissan in Huntington Beach made this an awesome car buying experience and I cant say enough about the SE AWD Murano!

Nice Car BUT... - 2003 Nissan Murano
By cherryja - March 17 - 9:00 amOverall, this car is a mess. I purchased a Nissan because I thought they were reliable cars. My Murano has been nothing but trouble, I had the car stop on me in the middle of traffic 3 times: 1. alternater 2. transmission (which had to be repaired 3 times) 3. battery. 4. Now I have to pay for a catalytic converter. Nissan did nothing to me make me happy except take my money. Because I drive a great distance to work, I was anticipating a reliable car, instead I got a over priced piece of junk that just looks good on the exterior. I will never buy another Nissan again.

The Best - 2004 Nissan Murano
By rita - March 11 - 10:00 amCompared to the other hybrid SUVs the Murano has smoother flowing lines. Allowing the colors to fit the model more so than the other SUVs. Giving the Murano Pazzazz and style turning heads every where we go. Thats why I picked Sunset Copper.

I settled for a Nissan Murano - 2004 Nissan Murano
By ALLAN - March 11 - 10:00 amWhen my 1997 Chrysler Town and country Van went into self destruct cycle I searched for a new car. I wanted something smaller, with awd and comfortable. I ended up settling for a 2004 Nissan Murano. I am extremely pleased with every aspect of the car except the poor fuel milage. The car is very comfortable, handles well, is a pleasure to drive but only gets around 12 mpg in local driving. On a long trip I can get up to 23 mpg but most of my driving is local.

Murano Rocks! - 2003 Nissan Murano
By Judy Dalton - March 9 - 5:20 pmWithout a doubt, the best car Ive ever owned! Stylish looks, comfortable interior, killer Bose sound, sharp handling, rock solid construction and responsive pickup are a few of the many features I enjoy. Im not sure what all the fuss is about the CVT as Ive noticed no lack of power at any time, but then Im not a speed demon. The ride in the back is roomy and comfortable and I get tons of compliments wherever I go. Closely styled like the Lexus RX 350 but a lot less $$.

Innovative but some quality issues - 2006 Nissan Murano
By ACS - March 1 - 1:06 amThe Nissan Murano is a very innovative car - first to market in the crossover segment. I transitioned from the Frontier, so better gas mileage but could still be better. Best we have gotten is 20 mpg. The only negative is there are definitely issues with the gas tank design. Had lots of trouble with getting fuel in the vehicle. Dealership service was accomodating and replaced the tank, but when you pay this much of a vehicle these issues should not surface. Overall a fun car to drive with great room - Im 65" and have plenty of room. Missed emotions on the CVT ... robs car of power when you need it. Defintely check this car out.

The best!!! - 2007 Nissan Murano
By AKgal - February 27 - 10:06 pmI really love this SUV!! It handles so much better than my last SUV. I live in Alaska and the snow here can make driving difficult at times. Not with my new Murano!

Too big and bulky - 2007 Nissan Murano
By Tiny - February 25 - 12:03 pmI traded my Mazda CX7 because it drove rough. The Murano drove worse. It drives hard and heavy. It is hard to park. You cannot see in the back well. There is not enough room for more than two suitcases. When on smooth surface you can still feel little bumps.

2003 Murano - 2003 Nissan Murano
By Chris Welch - February 25 - 2:00 amThis has been a great vehicle to own. Of particular pleasure is the CVT transmission, which is incredibly smooth, as well as having a sport mode which allows better acceleration and engine braking, albeit at the price of some fuel economy.
