Posted on April 22, 2020
If you're looking for a crossover SUV in the Barrhaven area, we at Myers Barrhaven Nissan strongly recommend the Nissan Murano for the perfect blend of capability and style with a touch of luxury you'll love. This comfortable and roomy crossover is great for commuting and excellent at attracting second glances wherever you go. If you want a vehicle that gets you noticed for all the right reasons, the Nissan Murano is for you. Still not convinced? Keep reading to find out more about what makes the Murano so special.
It starts with that first look, letting your eye travel over the aerodynamic exterior with V-Motion Grille to the rear side pillars that resemble a jet's tail. You start to envision what it's like to be seen in such a beauty, and slide behind the wheel to experience the zero gravity seats that are designed to reduce fatigue even on the longest of journeys. You picture yourself making the long drive to visit your parents and actually feeling refreshed when you get there and note that they're also in the back, so all your passengers can enjoy them too. You made a great time getting there with fewer stops for gas thanks to fuel economy ratings as efficient as 8.3 L /100 km on the highway and 11.7 L /100 km in the city. Rear Door Alert reminds you to check the backseat before you lock up so you'll never forget the sweater you borrowed from your brother last time you visited and never returned.
On your test drive, you notice that the available Nissan Intelligent All-Wheel Drive System is on and ready to make adjustments as needed to deliver power between wheels for enhanced control and traction. You also note how easy it is to get up to speed with the flow of traffic and overtake thanks to 260 horsepower from the 3.5 L V-6 engine and gearless Xtronic CVT that provides a wave of power when you need it and quiet, efficient cruising when you don't. You feel confident behind the wheel knowing that the standard safety, driving, and convenience features are with you to keep you safe, in control, and entertained no matter where you go. You return from your test drive and remind yourself that with a starting MSRP of $32,898, the Nissan Murano offers a lot of value for its modest price tag.
