Exterior
Nissan says the Murano’s wraparound surface construction features a sloping hood line and a steeply raked windshield. Each wheel is pushed out toward the corners for a long wheelbase and wide stance. The “sculpture in motion” theme focuses on an architectural grille and a sporty, upswept D-pillar that blends into the rounded cargo door, behind tiny quarter windows.
Aerodynamic enhancements include an under-engine body cover, front and rear tire deflectors, a chin spoiler and a rear spoiler. The Murano rides a 111.2-inch wheelbase, measures 187.6 inches long overall and stands 66.5 inches tall; it rides on 18-inch tires. High-intensity-discharge headlights and a sport-tuned suspension are installed on SE models.
