The Most Efficient Transmission Available

One of the main reasons behind the Nissan Murano’s excellent fuel mileage is the continuously variable transmission, or CVT, which takes no “steps” between gears. This technology allows the engine to stay at the most fuel-efficient speed as the Murano moves through the gears while allowing peak horsepower indefinitely, affording the maximum acceleration. It’s an advantage the Highlander just does not offer.

Goes Faster, Stops Faster

With a 3.5 liter, 24-valve dual overhead cam V6 that puts out 75 more horsepower and 56 more pound-feet of torque than the Highlander, the Murano has a whole lot more get up and go than its counterpart. It’s a difference you’ll feel the instant you put your foot to the gas.

But all that speed and added power don’t mean much without supreme stopping ability. With vented front and rear disc brakes standard, the Murano stops up to sixteen feet sooner than the Toyota when going from 60 to 0. The Highlander’s solid brakes do not afford you that ability.

More Space at the Push of a Button

We drive SUVs for a lot of reasons, not the least of which is cargo space. With optional push-button folding rear seats, the Murano makes increasing your cargo capacity easier than ever. No more bending, pulling, tugging, and pushing to get the most out of your mid-sized SUV. Just press a button and start loading. Like so many other things, it’s an option you just don’t have with a Toyota Highlander.
