Murano
For the first time since it debuted for 2004 as one of the earlier car-based SUVs, typically called crossovers, the midsize Murano 5-seater has been redesigned and reengineered for the new model year. The 2009 Muranos hit dealerships early in January 2008. There is no 2008 model. In price and size, the Murano competes with the Ford Edge, Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander. There are three trim levels: S, SL and LE. The lower two come with front- or all-wheel drive. The LE comes only with AWD. Nissan's familiar 3.5-liter V-6 powers the Murano, here producing 265 horsepower and 248 pounds-feet of torque. As before, the transmission is a continuously variable one, called Xtronic, which is one of the most time-proven ones on the market.
