2020 Nissan Murano Review

Name: 2020 Nissan Murano
Brand: Nissan

Price Range: $16,990 - $29,990

Nissan Murano Platinum 4dr SUV Exterior Shown

The 2020 Nissan Murano stands out for its striking exterior design and comfortable seats. It also has a powerful engine. But that styling comes at a cost. The sloping roofline cuts into rear visibility, making the Murano feel larger than it is. Towing capacity is also low for the class. This midsize SUV offers value and character, but it is not as versatile as competitors.

Love my Murano!

Mel Fox, 05/21/2020

2020 Nissan Murano SL 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl CVT)

Smooth ride and is a beast in the New England snow! I have had this car for 3 years with no problems! I have the SL with soft leather, heated seats, panoramic moon roof, Navi with a nice big screen, Bose speakers and 360 camera. Amazing and good size for a mid size SUV! Fully loaded at a great price!

Good purchase

2020 Nissan Murano Platinum 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl CVT)

Good ride and handling. Plenty of power from six cylinder. Interior first class. Would buy it again.

One of the last comfy cruisers on the market

2020 Nissan Murano SL 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl CVT)

Going to go in order of strengths, top to bottom: The seats are sublime, and some of the best across cars, period. Better bolstering than my turned-in non-sport-seat Alfa Romeo Giulia, and are as plush and comfy as a la-z-boy. Very strong lower-lumbar support and adjustment, but I do wish it had adjustable upper-lumbar as well. The magic seat design/foam carries to the rear as well, …

Murano Fan Club, 02/13/2020

2020 Nissan Murano Platinum 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl CVT)

We're very happy to be leasing the 2020 Nissan Murano Platinum. There is little difference in monthly leasing costs across the Murano range, from S to SL to SV to Platinum, even though the "out the door" prices to purchase them differ greatly. We ended up with a Platinum Murano full of attractive features for about $30/month more than the stripped down SL or SV that was thought to be our …

Safety

Our experts like the Murano models:

Automatic Emergency Braking: Front radar monitors proximity to the vehicle ahead. In an imminent collision, the Nissan Murano can apply the brakes to avoid or mitigate impact.
Blind-Spot Monitoring: The Nissan Murano's stylish exterior makes for reduced side and rear visibility, but this feature helps compensate. And it's standard on SV, SL and Platinum.
Around-View Monitor: Displays a 360-degree, top-down image of the SUV. Selectable curbside view works great for parking.
