The 2011 Nissan Murano is part of the vehicle's second generation. It's a midsize crossover SUV known for its upscale interior and solid performance. It is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine that produces 260 horsepower, coupled with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). Front-wheel drive is standard, with optional all-wheel drive across all trims. The Murano comes in four trims: S, SV, SL, and LE, each offering its unique set of features. S and SV trims are fairly well-equipped, while the SL and LE offer more luxury. Infotainment features include a 7-inch screen, SatNav, and a Bose audio system on higher trims. Key safety features include an advanced airbag system, anti-lock brakes, and stability control. For 2011, Murano received a minor facelift with updated grille and bumper designs and new taillights.
