Overview

Written by automotive expert James Riswick

Updated: 11/8/2026

Nissan has redesigned its Murano for 2025. The new model has fresh-looking styling and some notable updates. There's a stylish cabin design, the addition of Nissan's latest infotainment and technology features, and a new engine under the hood. We're not really sure why Nissan changed it up — the new turbocharged four-cylinder is similar to last year's V6 in acceleration and fuel economy — but this two-row SUV still has enough get-up-and-go to hustle it up to highway speeds without too much trouble. The Murano continues to occupy an unusual SUV niche, however. It's more expensive than the Rogue in Nissan's lineup and that's less about size (it's actually smaller in some key areas) and more about its elevated design, higher-quality cabin materials and greater performance.

Edmunds Expert Rating

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Reese Counts

Average

6.2

out of 10

We drove the 2025 Nissan Murano on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Driving experience

6.6/10

How does the Nissan Murano drive? The latest Nissan Murano features a turbocharged four-cylinder engine and a nine-speed automatic transmission. We've found it to be an upgrade over the Murano's previous V6 and continuously variable transmission. The benefits are immediately noticeable, with quicker acceleration both in the city and on the freeway. At our test track, the Murano sprinted from 0 to 60 mph in 7.4 seconds. This is a little slower than a Hyundai Santa Fe but quicker than a Honda Passport.

The Murano isn't particularly sporty or engaging to drive, but it does have a comfortable and relaxing ride quality. The suspension soaks up bumps and ruts in the road with ease. Otherwise, the Murano is pretty easy to drive. Visibility is OK, but the sharply angled windshield makes it harder to see out of the front of the Murano than some boxier and upright rivals. The Murano is available with a surround-view camera system to help with parking, along with a number of other driver aids like blind-spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control. They mostly worked well in our testing, though the systems get a little flummoxed on tight roads.

Comfort

7.3/10

How comfortable is the Nissan Murano? The Murano's front seats are among the most comfortable you'll find in a midsize SUV. They have soft padding, good support and enough adjustments to make long-distance driving easy. Our loaded test vehicle featured heated, ventilated and massaging front seats, and, along with a very quiet cabin, made for a very relaxed time behind the wheel. The Murano's climate system works great on hot days to keep you cool.

Second-row passengers won't be quite as cozy, but the Murano's bench seat offers good padding and more support than the benches in some rivals. Despite a sleek-looking roofline, the Murano offers decent headroom in both rows and is easy to get in and out of.

The Murano's interior looks nice, but the controls feel compromised by design choices. You have to access many of the Murano's settings and controls through the touchscreen, and they just aren't as convenient to use as regular physical buttons. The steering wheel also has touch-sensitive controls rather than real buttons. The climate control gets dedicated controls, but even those are just touch points on a panel.

In-cabin tech

7.1/10

How’s the tech? The Murano's dual 12.3-inch high-resolution displays look great. But the touchscreen's software interface itself is dated and a bit cumbersome to use. It's not always easy to find the right menu or settings without some digging.

The Murano comes with standard wireless connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. A wireless charging pad is also standard. Nissan also has a smartphone app, but it doesn't give the Murano digital key functionality, which is where you can conveniently use your smartphone to serve as the vehicle's key.

Storage & cargo

4.6/10

How’s storage and cargo? The Murano offers 32.9 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats and up to 63.5 cubic feet with the seats folded flat. That's on the small side for a midsize SUV, with less overall room than rivals like the Honda Passport or Mazda CX-70. The angle of the rear window cuts into cargo space too, limiting how tall items can be. There's still plenty of space, but there are more usable SUVs in this class.

Storage in the front of the cabin for small items includes a decent-sized center console and door pockets. There are small bins for your phone, sunglasses and garage door opener and reasonably large cupholders and bottle slots in the doors.

Value

6.4/10

Is the Nissan Murano a good value? The Murano comes reasonably well equipped for the price. The list of standard equipment is solid, including a decent array of driver aids and technology features. It's more expensive than the average Nissan, but the Murano is far from the most expensive two-row midsize SUV around. It looks and feels relatively nice inside, too, especially in the loaded Platinum trim. There are nice materials on the seats and trim. While it's not luxury-car nice, it's easy to see why it commands a bit of a premium compared to other Nissans such as the Rogue and Pathfinder.

MPG

5/10

How’s the fuel economy? The Nissan Murano gets an EPA-estimated 23 mpg in combined city/highway driving, which is average for a midsize SUV. There's no drop in fuel economy if you get all-wheel drive, which is nice. We matched the Murano's estimate in our real-world testing.

X factor

7/10

The fourth-generation Nissan Murano, like its predecessors, stands out in the Nissan lineup. It looks unlike anything else in Nissan's gas-powered lineup, sharing more design traits with the all-electric Nissan Ariya than with other Nissan SUVs like the Rogue and Pathfinder. The interior is much the same, offering a premium feel you won't find elsewhere in Nissan's showroom.

Buying Tips for the 2025 Nissan Murano for November

The 2025 Murano’s new-car supply is effectively gone at just 138 vehicles nationwide, so your smartest move is to shop the used market first.

Used Muranos start around $28,900 nationwide, and there are about 950 used examples available. That gives you far more choice than the remaining new stock, especially if you care about color or options.
On the few new 2025s left, buyers were paying about $7,300 below MSRP, and there are no general customer cash rebates to stack on top. That sounds strong on paper, but with so few new vehicles left, finding your preferred one may matter more than squeezing out the last few dollars.
The SL is the easiest used trim to find with about 525 used listings, while the SV has around 246 and the Platinum is scarcer. If you want the best shot at selection and pricing, start with the SL.
Remaining new inventory has been sitting a long time at about 534 days to turn versus 39 days for the average new vehicle. That can help if you find a dealer with the exact Murano you want, but act quickly once you do because replacement stock is not coming.

2025 Nissan Murano trim level differences

The 2025 Nissan Murano is a five-passenger midsize SUV available in SV, SL and Platinum trim levels. All come with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 241 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. A nine-speed automatic transmission is standard. All-wheel drive is standard on the SL and Platinum; it's optional on the base SV, which comes standard with front-wheel drive. Compare the 2025 Nissan Murano trim levels in-depth.

Which Murano trim does Edmunds recommend?

We would recommend the Murano SV. Sure, it's the base trim but it comes well equipped and gives you the best value of the lineup. The SL and Platinum have some desirable upgrades, but considering their higher price, you might want to consider a luxury SUV instead.

Competitors to consider

The Kia Sorento and Hyundai Santa Fe are similar in price, feature content and available performance, but they manage to squeeze in a third row (and extra cargo space) without ballooning to extreme family hauler proportions. The Chevrolet Blazer is similar to the Murano in terms of its body style and seat count, as well as its emphasis on style. The new Honda Passport is another five-passenger midsize model, but it is much more spacious and has adopted a more off-roading vibe for its latest generation. Finally, luxury models like the Acura RDX, Lexus NX and Lincoln Corsair provide comparable size and equipment for not that much more money.

Edmunds spotlight: All-new yet old-school

If you bought an SUV back in the 1990s, there's a very good chance it was a two-row midsize model. The popularity of these vehicles started the SUV trend, while car-based crossover models like the original Murano increased the SUV's status as America's go-to family vehicle. Today, though, the Murano is one of only a few two-row midsize models — and they're not especially popular. Part of that is because compact models, such as Nissan's own Rogue, have become so spacious in recent years that there's little reason to buy a midsize. As such, the Murano is positioned as a premium pick to justify its elevated price. There's logic to that, but that price also puts the Murano up against various three-row midsize models as well as two-row luxury models.

2025 Nissan Murano Platinum 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 9A)

I’ve had the Platinum model about a month, and until last week I loved most every aspect. The tech is not intuitive, but I feel in time I can learn most of the features. It seems most new cars have this frustrating problem. Last week as I was driving a warning light popped up which I couldn’t interpret. When I arrived at home a few minutes later I parked in the garage to unload. I went …
