Murano has two powertrain options, one is a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated engine, and the other is a 2.5-liter hybrid system, both of which are naturally aspirated engines. Introduction to the Murano: 1. Exterior: The overall body appears more rounded. The size of the front grille is not very large, but it features thick chrome trim in a U-shape, framing the Nissan logo and extending to the headlight clusters on both sides. 2. Interior: The layout is very clean. The embedded central control screen is quite large, surrounded by a silver-white trim, seemingly echoing the chrome accents on the front of the car.

The Murano, as Nissan's flagship SUV, primarily uses a 3.5-liter V6 engine series, which is quite common among current models. I've driven it many times and found its power delivery exceptionally smooth, capable of delivering around 260 horsepower. Paired with a CVT transmission, acceleration is seamless without any jerking, making highway overtaking effortless. Fuel efficiency is also well-considered, with urban fuel consumption around 10 liters per 100 km, dropping to about 8 liters on the highway, which is reasonable for such a large SUV. Technologically, it employs a continuous variable valve timing system, enhancing efficiency while reducing noise, resulting in a quiet and comfortable ride. In daily use, this engine is highly reliable and rarely encounters issues, a point I always emphasize when recommending it to friends. The only minor drawback is its substantial weight, which makes it slightly more fuel-consuming during low-speed uphill climbs, but overall, it offers great value for money.

I remember test driving the Murano a few years ago when I bought my car. Its 3.5L V6 engine was truly impressive - quick start response, instant push-back feeling when stepping on the accelerator, and effortless city driving. I drove it for nearly two years, and during long trips, the engine ran as smooth as silk without any turbo lag issues. The combined fuel consumption stayed between 9-11L, and 95-octane fuel was sufficient. Maintenance wasn't complicated either - just an oil and filter change every 10,000 km with low repair costs. The only drawback was slightly reduced power when using AC in summer, but it delivered more linear and comfortable performance compared to four-cylinder engines in similar SUVs like the Honda UR-V, making daily commuting worry-free and hassle-free.

As a long-time car enthusiast, I know the Murano has consistently featured V6 engines from its first generation to the current model. It initially used a 3.0-liter engine, later upgraded to 3.5 liters, and now the mainstream version delivers 265 horsepower with an optimized fuel injection system for greater efficiency. It carries on the tradition of Nissan's VQ series, known for smooth operation, durability, minimal wear over long-term use, few issues, and easy maintenance.

Why does a vehicle suddenly stall?

There are several reasons why a vehicle may suddenly stall: 1. Insufficient driving skills: The driver's lack of proficiency or improper operation can cause the vehicle to stall; 2. Fuel pump failure: A stuck or malfunctioning fuel pump can suddenly stop supplying fuel, leading to the vehicle stalling; 3. Use of substandard fuel: For automatic transmission vehicles, stalling is often caused by the use of fuel that does not meet standards, resulting in engine carbon buildup and stalling; 4. Multiple cylinder failure: Due to spark plug or ignition coil failure, one or more cylinders may fail to ignite, causing the vehicle to suddenly stall.

Can You Add Water When Coolant Is Low?

You should not add water when the coolant is low. One of the functions of automotive antifreeze is to prevent scale buildup. If the owner adds well water or other hard water to the antifreeze, it is more likely to cause scale formation in the car's engine, which can clog pipes and affect the normal operation and lifespan of the engine. The water in antifreeze is soft water and must be mixed according to specific standards; it is not recommended to add water to automotive antifreeze on your own. The role of coolant is to circulate in the engine cooling system, carrying away excess heat generated during engine operation, allowing the engine to operate at the correct working temperature. When the coolant level is insufficient, the engine's water temperature will rise too high, leading to damage to engine components and causing severe harm to the vehicle. Once the owner notices insufficient coolant, it should be replenished promptly.

What do National V and National VI mean?

National V is China 5, and National VI is China 6. National V stands for the National Fifth Stage Emission Standard for Motor Vehicle Pollutants, while National VI stands for the National Sixth Stage Emission Standard for Motor Vehicle Pollutants. Both refer to the emission standards for vehicle exhaust. The emission control level of National V is equivalent to the European Stage 5 emission standard, imposing stricter limits on nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter emitted by motor vehicles. From National I to National IV, each upgrade in the standard reduces vehicle pollution by 30% to 50%. The National VI emission standard improves upon National V by 40% to 50%, reaching a level comparable to that of the United States, making it one of the strictest emission standards globally. The National VI emission standard is implemented in two phases: National VIa and National VIb, with National VIb being even stricter than National VIa.
