Nissan is preparing a new addition for its popular Murano crossover lineup, and surprisingly enough, the future SUV will be a convertible.

On the market since 2003, the five-passenger SUV underwent a complete makeover for 2009, and now Nissan is engineering a drop-top version of the latest-generation Murano. Expected to arrive by the spring of 2010, the Murano drop top will be the market's only four-door convertible except for the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, whose rugged four-wheel-drive capability is geared toward a completely different audience.

Insider sources close to the project say the 2011 Murano convertible will be produced in limited numbers, and will be targeted at empty-nesters who need room to carry the grandkids, but still want something fun. But the kids will need to pack light, as the current Murano offers just 31.6 cubic feet of cargo capacity, and the convertible mechanism will certainly cut into that space.

Although retractable hardtops are gaining in popularity, the Murano will stick with a more traditional soft top to keep weight down. Less heft should help keep fuel economy similar to the Murano's current 21 mpg combined city/highway rating, as the 265-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 and a continuously variable transmission (CVT) used in the 2009 Murano is expected to remain. We also expect front- or all-wheel drive to be available.

Don't expect the 2010 Murano convertible to come cheap. A top-of-the-line 2009 Murano LE with all-wheel drive and an optional navigation system is priced at $39,080 including delivery charges, and the new convertible model will likely sit at the top of the lineup.

Diesel Nissan Murano 2010: New V6 but private

March 16, 2010 at 0:27



If there is one SUV that is rare on our roads, it's the Murano (not to mention the Tribeca, the Commander, Goa and a few others) due to a single petrol engine, 3.5 L V6 with 255 horsepower low in accordance with customer demand. Nissan will therefore address this problem by launching later this summer a diesel version of the Murano. Not too early some might say, but more surprising is that this huge SUV that we would see competitors in the Touareg, Lexus and other XC90 will not be equipped with the new V6 dCi, which officers under the hoods of the Infiniti EX and FX or Navara and Pathfinder SUV ... The big Nissan will be equipped with an L4 DCi an engine worker nothing but a commoner!


Thus, the Murano will be given a new evolution engine 2.5 L DCi with new injection system which operates under 2000 bar pressure, cylinder head redesigned and new variable geometry turbocharger controlled by electric motor (instead of the hydraulic control). The new L4 2.5 L DCi develops power of 190 hp and 450 Nm of torque (171 hp and 403 Nm at present). This new diesel engine generation will only be available with a BVA6. The transmission is of course the 4 wheels via Nissan All Mode 4 x 4i-System.












Below is a short video that takes you into the Murano (gasoline) in motion because it is so rare in our region that the famous dahu!
