Key Features of the 2027 Nissan Murano

VC-Turbo® Engine and Intelligent All-Wheel Drive

The 2027 Nissan Murano® uses a 2-liter VC-Turbo® DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine that produces 241 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. This engine is a major part of Murano’s personality because it is designed to deliver power and efficiency on demand. Paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission, Murano feels smooth in traffic, confident on open roads, and composed during passing or merging. The electronic shifter gives the center area a clean, modern feel while supporting effortless control. All-wheel drive is included across the listed Murano trims, and the Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system continuously monitors road conditions and can quickly respond to help provide traction. That confidence matters for Western Kentucky drivers who move between city streets, rural roads, and highways. Murano also offers 8.3 inches of ground clearance and up to 1,500 lbs. of maximum towing capacity, which adds helpful flexibility for small trailers or weekend gear.

Spa-Like Interior with Zero Gravity Seats

Murano’s cabin is one of its most compelling strengths. Nissan describes it as a premium interior designed to soothe the body and mind, and the layout supports that goal with open space, soft-touch materials, and available Venetian glass-inspired dash treatment. The front seats use a Zero Gravity Seat design to help reduce fatigue on longer drives, while the second row offers generous comfort for passengers. Available semi-aniline quilted leather-appointed seats, climate-controlled front seats, and massaging front seats bring a luxury-level feel to the Platinum AWD trim. The Memory System can remember preferences and help personalize the cockpit as the driver enters. Murano also offers available 64-color ambient LED lighting along the doors and dashboard, allowing the cabin mood to be changed quickly. An available panoramic moonroof opens the interior visually for both rows, while folding 60-40 rear seats and 32.9 cu.ft. of cargo volume support groceries, luggage, sports bags, and everyday cargo.

Dual 12.3" Displays and NissanConnect®

The technology in the 2027 Murano is designed to look elegant and work intuitively. The Monolith Display concept uses dual 12.3" displays to place mapping, messaging, vehicle information, and entertainment in a bold digital layout. The NissanConnect® 12.3" infotainment system includes wireless Apple CarPlay® integration and wireless Android Auto™ compatibility, helping the cabin feel like a natural extension of a compatible smartphone. Available Google built-in adds Google Maps™, Google Play, and Google Assistant™ functionality without needing to rely on a phone for every task. NissanConnect® Services also creates a personalized connected ecosystem through the MyNISSAN app, with access to features such as Remote Engine Start, My Car Finder, Remote Vehicle Status, and available myQ® Connected Garage. The available Bose Premium Audio System uses 10 high-performance speakers and cabin-specific acoustic tuning to bring richer sound to every seat. For shoppers who want an SUV that feels current without being confusing, Murano’s technology is a clear advantage.

HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View® Monitor and Invisible Hood View

Visibility technology is a major highlight of the 2027 Nissan Murano®. The HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View® Monitor uses four cameras to provide a virtual composite 360° view from above, helping the driver see around the crossover in a much clearer way when parking, backing up, or navigating tight areas. Split-screen views of the front, rear, and curbside areas help with precision in crowded lots, narrow driveways, and city spaces. Murano also offers Invisible Hood View, a camera-based system that creates a virtual composite view of the area normally blocked by the hood and engine compartment. This can help the driver confidently maneuver around tight obstacles or uneven terrain where front-end placement matters. For daily driving near Hopkinsville, KY, these tools can be especially useful in busy shopping areas, school pickup lines, downtown parking, and home driveways. Murano makes spatial awareness feel less stressful and more natural.

ProPILOT Assist and Safety Shield® 360

The 2027 Murano is built with a strong emphasis on driver assistance. Standard ProPILOT Assist helps the driver stay centered in the lane, manage stop-and-go traffic, and rest the feet during supported driving situations. Available ProPILOT Assist 2.1 goes further by enabling advanced hands-off, foot-off driving in certain situations, traffic management, and smooth freeway cruising. Standard Safety Shield® 360 brings six important safety features to Murano: Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Rear Automatic Braking, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, and High Beam Assist. Additional technologies include Intelligent Forward Collision Warning, which monitors up to two vehicles ahead, Intelligent Lane Intervention, and Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention®, which can help guide Murano back toward its lane if a lane change is attempted while another vehicle is in the blind spot area. These systems do not replace attentive driving, but the added awareness can make every trip feel more reassuring.
