2006 Nissan Murano Road Test Ratings

A strong engine, solid handling and a sporty ride with styling cues that are not suitable for all tastes.

Handles, steers and brakes well with a strong engine. The CVT transmission works well, but isn't to everyone's liking.

Seating position is OK, but the chairs are firm. Ride is slightly on the firm side, but consistent with the sporty product concept.

Most of the controls are logically placed and adequately differentiated. Cargo space is limited.

Interior styling isn't consistent with the Avant Garde exterior. Materials are a bit off-putting.
