The 2006 Nissan Murano, part of the model's first generation, is a midsize crossover SUV with stand-out style and a smooth, comfortable ride. The Murano is powered by a 3.5L V6 engine producing 245 horsepower and 246 lb-ft of torque, coupled with a CVT automatic transmission. It's available in front-wheel drive or an intuitive all-wheel drive, across three trims: S, SL, and SE. Standard features include a 7-inch LCD screen, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a 10-speaker Bose sound system in the upper trims. The 2006 Murano also boasts Nissan’s Advanced Air Bag System, ABS brakes, and a tire pressure monitoring system. Key changes this year include slight package reshuffling and the addition of a rollover sensor for the side-curtain airbags.
