2 Answers
The Murano is a B-segment vehicle, a 5-door, 5-seat SUV under Dongfeng Nissan. Taking the Murano 2021 XE 2WD Elite Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4897mm, width 1908mm, height 1691mm, wheelbase 2830mm, fuel tank capacity 72 liters, and curb weight 1656kg. The Murano 2021 XE 2WD Elite Edition is equipped with a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 186hp, maximum power of 137kW, and maximum power speed of 6000rpm, paired with a 7-speed continuously variable transmission.
The Murano is Nissan's mid-size SUV, positioned in the mid-size SUV segment. Vehicles in this class generally offer ample space, and the Murano, measuring approximately 4.9 meters in length, provides a spacious interior, making it suitable for family use or road trips with friends. Personally, I've driven it a few times and found its suspension tuning to be comfortable, ensuring a less fatiguing experience on long drives. It's comparable in size to the Toyota Highlander and Ford Edge, but the Murano leans more toward a sporty style, delivering a much lighter and more agile driving feel. Currently, there’s a hybrid version available in the market, which excels in fuel efficiency, making city driving hassle-free. If you're into tech features, the high-end trim offers intelligent driving assistance, such as lane-keeping and automatic emergency braking. Overall, it’s positioned in the 300,000 to 400,000 RMB range, placing it in the premium mid-size SUV category—great for daily commutes or weekend getaways. The only occasional remark is its somewhat avant-garde front-end design, but once you get used to it, it feels uniquely stylish.
