2025 Nissan Murano: What's in stock, trim-level comparison, FAQ's.

    Updated 2026-06-04
    Quick Answer

    The Nissan Murano is a two-row midsize crossover, fully redesigned for the 2025 model year. Every Murano now uses a 2.0-liter VC-Turbo four-cylinder engine making about 241 horsepower, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission — the first Murano not built around a CVT. Front-wheel drive is standard with available Intelligent AWD. Three trims (SV, SL, Platinum) layer on tech that ramps up to dual 12.3-inch displays, Google built-in, a Bose audio system, and massaging front seats on the loaded Platinum.

    Inside the Nissan Murano

    What's new for the redesigned Murano

    The Murano was fully redesigned for the 2025 model year and the 2026 carries that redesign forward. The biggest mechanical change is under the hood: the previous-generation 3.5L V6 with a CVT is gone, replaced by a 2.0-liter VC-Turbo four-cylinder paired with a conventional 9-speed automatic transmission. VC-Turbo is Nissan's variable-compression engine — it physically changes its compression ratio on the fly, raising it for highway efficiency and lowering it for boosted off-the-line response. Output is about 241 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, with FWD standard and Intelligent AWD optional. The new platform brings a more upright, formal exterior and a redesigned interior built around dual 12.3-inch displays on higher trims.

    Choosing between trims

    The 2026 Murano lineup is SV, SL, and Platinum. SV is the value entry: the 2.0L VC-Turbo, 9-speed automatic, NissanConnect with the dual-screen layout on higher trims (verify per trim on the build site), Safety Shield 360 standard, and the option of Intelligent AWD. SL adds leather seating, more advanced ProPILOT Assist content, and the panoramic moonroof. Platinum is the loaded pick: standard AWD on most configurations, dual 12.3-inch displays, Google built-in with Google Assistant, head-up display, quilted leather, climate-controlled massaging front seats, and a 10-speaker Bose Premium Audio system. Confirm exact 2026 equipment per trim on nissanusa.com — content lists shift mid-cycle.

    How it stacks up in the 2-row midsize-CUV segment

    The two-row midsize CUV segment is a narrow shelf — Honda Passport, Hyundai Santa Fe, Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the Murano itself. Against that field, the new Murano leans on three things: the VC-Turbo + 9-speed powertrain that finally moves it past the older V6/CVT combo, a clean and premium-leaning interior on the upper trims (especially Platinum, which competes against entry-luxury crossovers on equipment), and Nissan's standard active-safety content. Where the Murano gives up ground is on outright capability: the new Honda Passport and the Grand Cherokee out-tow it, and the Santa Fe Hybrid out-mpgs it. The Murano's pitch is design and comfort, not towing or hybrid efficiency.

    Pros and Cons

    Pros
    • Fresh ground-up redesign for 2025 — modern platform, modern interior, modern tech.
    • 2.0L VC-Turbo with a conventional 9-speed automatic is a meaningful upgrade over the prior V6/CVT.
    • Intelligent AWD available, with selectable drive modes including Snow for central-Kentucky winters.
    • Safety Shield 360 standard — automatic emergency braking, blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning, rear AEB, high-beam assist.
    • Platinum trim is genuinely premium: dual 12.3-inch screens, Google built-in, head-up display, Bose, panoramic moonroof, massaging front seats.
    • Quiet, comfortable two-row layout — easier to park and live with than a three-row alternative.
    • Standard Nissan 3-year/36,000-mile and 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranties.
    Cons
    • Gas-only in the US — no hybrid option to chase a Santa Fe Hybrid or RAV4 Hybrid on mpg.
    • Tow rating is modest; not a substitute for a body-on-frame SUV or a Grand Cherokee for trailering.
    • Two rows only — families who need a third row should look at Pathfinder or a midsize three-row competitor.
    • Top features (dual 12.3-inch displays, Bose, Google built-in, massaging seats) are concentrated in Platinum.
    • VC-Turbo four-cylinder under load can be more audible than the older V6 some loyalists were used to.
