Strange looking crossover is a treat to drive
The CVT's shift-free operation goes almost totally un-noticed in regular traffic. Throttle take-up is quick and peppy, and full throttle performance is very good once the machine gets rolling. The strange sensation of the CVT at full throttle will take some getting used to for many drivers new to the technology.

CVT's are said to turn in improved mileage and smoothness. Neither impressive nor disappointing, mileage on my watch averaged about 12.5L / 100km.

The emphasis here is on luxury, performance and style.

Are you a Murano driver?
The emphasis here is on luxury, performance and style. Murano's aimed not towards a buyer who off-roads or tows frequently, but to one that needs room and flexibility, an upscale interior, and styling that packs a punch.

In nature, it's said you're only given so many gifts. As such, odd-looking creatures sometimes have special skills or talents to make up for their strange appearance. Murano is one such creature.
