2012 Nissan Murano Platinum Edition

2012 Nissan Murano Platinum Edition — description and factory equipment

The 2012 Murano Platinum Edition is the top-level trim in the Murano lineup, combining the model’s distinctive crossover styling with a higher level of interior refinement and convenience. Power comes from Nissan’s 3.5-liter DOHC V6 engine producing 260 hp and 240 ft-lbs of torque. That engine is paired with Nissan’s Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT), and the Murano is offered with front-wheel drive or an available all-wheel-drive system, providing a smooth, confidence-oriented driving character rather than a sporty, performance-focused feel.
