The Nissan Murano is a crossover SUV that premiered for the 2003 model year. It is constructed off of Nissan's FF-L platform along with the Altima, Teana, Maxima, and Quest. Upon its introduction, the Nissan Murano was outfitted with a 3.5L V6 engine that produced up to 245 horsepower. The engine was geared to an automatic Continuous Variable Transmission and it ran on front-wheel drive, although all-wheel drive was offered as an option. One item that the Murano was noted for from the outset was its handling, as it utilized an independent suspension on all four-wheels. As for safety features, the Murano was equipped with head restraints, airbags, brake assist, traction control, all built into a steel-reinforced cabin. This allowed the Nissan Murano to achieve a five-star crash rating from the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration. 2006 ushered in several changes to the Murano parts. LED turn-signals and tail lights were implemented and a new backup camera became available as an option.
During the first generation, two trim levels were available for the Murano: S, SL, and SE. The base S was equipped with dual-zone climate control, a CD stereo system, and a 7" LCD display. The SL, considered the luxury trim, took it a step further with a power driver's seat that featured lumbar support. SE versions of the Nissan Murano were designated as the sport models and showed off a sport-tuned suspension that only it was equipped with. Other options for the Murano included a Bose stereo, a sunroof, DVD navigation, adjustable pedals, and a roof rack. Nissan did not offer another Murano for 2008. Instead, the automaker unveiled the new Murano at the 2007 Los Angeles Auto Show with sales commencing in early 2008 as a 2009 model. The Murano was moved off of the FF-L platform and onto the D platform alongside the Altima and Maxima.
The second generation of the model saw the SUV become equipped with a 3.5L VQ engine that delivers 265 horsepower along with 248 pounds-per-foot of torque. Once again, the engine is mated to a CV transmission. Three main trims accompany the second-generation Murano: base S, SL, and LE. The S and SL come with Intuitive All-Wheel Drive (front-wheel drive is an option) while the Murano LE is offered with all-wheel drive only. Standard safety features for all Nissan Murano trims include electronic stability control, front-side airbags, side-curtain airbags, brake assist, and four-wheel disc brakes with ABS. Since its arrival on the road, the Nissan Murano has been a successful SUV in the Japanese automaker's lineup. In its brief history, the vehicle has received numerous awards and honors. In 2004, the Murano was given the Auto Guide Award by AAA. It was also named a Consumer Guide Recommended Buy (2005, 2006) and took home both the Auto Pacific Ideal Vehicle Award (2006) and the Motorist's Choice Award for Best Mid-Size Crossover (2006).
The Nissan Murano has become the ultimate crossover SUV, but not because of its smooth, car-like driving quality. Nope. It is because the Murano is so stylish and fashionable, there are enough drivers out there who have likened it to a luxury vehicle. Truly on its own playing field when it comes to sport-utility handling and performance, the Murano edges out the competition when it comes to making up ground on the open road.

Market price: $53.06The world's first all-wheel drive crossover convertible, the 2011 Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet was officially unveiled at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show. While sporting an innovative design that blends the utility of a crossover and the open air enjoyment of a convertible, the Murano CrossCabriolet has met a controversial reaction in the automotive circles.
"When people think of a crossover, they think of a combination of the driving sophistication of a sedan with the utility of a sport utility. This new Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet adds an unexpected third element, the ability to make everyday activities more exciting with open air driving," said Al Castignetti, Nissan Division vice president for sales and marketing. "However, with its extraordinarily engineered convertible top, standard all-wheel drive and room for four adults plus cargo, the CrossCabriolet is not just for cruising South Beach or Malibu. It's a vehicle to take to lunch, running errands or on a long ski weekend in any part of the country."
The new Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet only comes as an all-wheel drive, taking power from a 3.5-liter 24-valve DOHC V6 engine mated to Nissan's second-generation continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). The powertrain produces 265 hp and 248 lb-ft of torque. A MacPherson front suspension, along with the Multi-link setup at the rear, makes handling sportier. Among the exterior styling highlights are the LED taillights, HID bi-xenon headlamps, and 20-inch five-spoke wheels. Standard interior package includes heated front seats, wood trim, Bose audio system, hard-drive navigation system, Bluetooth, and other tweaks geared to improve the comfort and luxury feel inside the car.
Nissan hopes that the unique design of the new Murano CrossCabriolet will attract new buyers to the brand. The company claims it already has 900 pre-orders and thousands more inquiring about its extraordinary creation. The base price for the 2011 Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet is set at $46,390.
