Exploring the Brand New Nissan Murano

When the original Nissan Murano debuted more than 20 years ago, it offered a unique style that strayed from the boxy SUV design that was commonplace in the market at that time. Now, with the introduction of its fourth generation, the Murano is the talk of its class once again, with a modern, streamlined, coupe-like design that appears to glide down the road with ease.

Our team at Rusty Wallace Nissan is excited to show off the brand-new version of this reliable and fun-to-drive SUV and to help you find the right Nissan Murano for sale for your driving needs. Whether you’re upgrading your current vehicle to gain more space, downgrading but don’t want to lose the flexibility an SUV offers, or simply looking for a smooth-driving, efficient, and technologically advanced vehicle, we think you will quickly see that the Murano is a strong contender.

How the Nissan Murano Is Shaking Things Up

First, the Nissan Murano is a midsize SUV, which just happens to be the most popular SUV category. Midsize SUVs hit the sweet spot for a wide range of drivers, offering plenty of room for passengers and cargo without being so big that they’re difficult to navigate in tight spaces. They also tend to offer a smoother ride, one that’s more car-like and less truck-ish, which is key even if you’re only driving a few blocks away.

Additionally, while midsize SUVs tend to offer the same seating capacity as compact SUVs, they typically offer more leg and shoulder room. For instance, the 2025 Nissan Murano offers up to 107 cu.ft of passenger volume, while its smaller sibling, the Rogue, only provides passengers with 105 cu.ft of space.

However, it’s important to understand that it takes more than just space and a smooth ride to stand out in this class—something that Nissan kept in mind when designing the new Murano. Check out the highlights of the latest version of this SUV below, then reach out to a member of our team to get a closer look.

Tech-Forward Features

The Nissan Murano’s interior caters to every driver’s needs, putting the things they need most front and center. This includes 12.3-inch dual high-definition displays that are standard on all three trim levels and sync up with compatible phones to provide quick access to your favorite playlist, the latest podcast episode, turn-by-turn directions, and more.

Even better? With personalized voice-activation features, you can remain focused on the road. Additionally, the Murano offers available Google built-in, Alexa built-in, and a head-up display that you can customize to fit your needs. You will also find that wireless front charging, wireless integration to Apple CarPlay, and wireless Android Auto compatibility are standard features. Finally, your passengers can easily keep their devices charged and ready to go thanks to the four USB ports throughout the interior.

It’s worth noting as you explore the Murano’s various trims that choosing the SL or Platinum trim provides you with the opportunity to enjoy NissanConnect Services powered by SiriusXM for either a five- or three-year period, as well as NissanConnect with Wi-Fi Hotspot. We can review these package options with you, answering any questions you might have, so that you can choose the right trim and amenities for your needs.

Safety First

As mentioned above, the 2025 Nissan Murano has three trim levels: SV, SL, and Platinum. All three trims offer a long list of safety features, but there are a few available features at the SL and Platinum levels that you might not find on other midsize SUVs. The first of these is the available Dual Camera Drive Recorder, which can work as a dashcam as well as a cabin camera. The second is the ability to access emergency services through Emergency SOS, thanks to NissanConnect Services.

Beyond those two things, all three trims of the Murano are equipped with Safety Shield 360, Nissan’s collection of driver assist features. Among these features, you will find systems such as Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, and more. In addition, all three trims offer ProPILOT Assist 1.0 Hands-On, which combines steering assist technologies to keep you centered and safe in your lane.

Finally, if you’ve ever strained to see how close you are to the vehicle in front of you while parking or crossed your fingers hoping to miss the bumpier parts of a driveway that hasn’t quite been maintained, you’ll appreciate this next feature.

With the all-new Invisible Hood View, you will be provided with a virtual composite view of the area normally blocked by your hood and engine. This virtual view is available on all three trims, allowing you to maneuver better in tight spaces or when faced with challenging terrain.

Comfort and Convenience

Now that you know about the technology and safety features that help make the 2025 Nissan Murano stand out, you might wonder about the SUV’s comfort and convenience amenities. Do they live up to the hype as well? We think the answer is yes.

When designing the 2025 Nissan Murano, it is clear that the brand had a zen-like environment in mind. For instance, some of the available features include a panoramic moonroof, ambient LED lighting, and ventilated and massaging front seats. In addition, each of the new Muranos gives you access to the #1 app for meditation, relaxation, and mindfulness—Calm. You can access this app through the touchscreen when you need a gentle reminder to breathe through the stress of a commute or entertain the kids with one of the app’s stories that are targeted just for them.

In addition to these features, the motion-activated liftgate adds convenience when your arms are full, enabling you to effortlessly load items into the cargo space. You only need to wave your foot under the rear bumper, and the liftgate will open automatically. Speaking of cargo space, you will also appreciate the ease with which you can decrease or increase the space with just a button, thanks to the conveniently placed rear-seat release latches.

Last but not least, each of the three trim levels is equipped with a Remote Engine Start System with Intelligent Climate Control. This system goes above and beyond the standard remote start systems by utilizing the Nissan Intelligent Key to assess the outside temperature and provide you and your passengers with a comfortable interior environment.
Power and Performance

Each 2025 Nissan Murano is powered by a 2.0L VC-Turbo turbocharged I-4, which produces up to 241 hp and allows you to tow up to 1,500 lbs. This engine is paired with a nine-speed transmission, providing precision handling, responsive steering, and a solid foundation overall.
