Nissan Murano FAQs

• Is the Nissan Murano still made?

  For Australian new car buyers, the Murano is lo longer an option across the new car market. This mid-size family SUV enjoyed more than 10 years of sales up until 2015, when it was discontinued. The Murano offered ample comfort, practicality and spirited performance for what was a fair price. Although no longer being sold new in Australia, you are still likely to see a number of Muranos on the road given their build quality and reliability. In the meantime, it lives on in certain overseas markets.

• What replaced the Nissan Murano?

  There was no direct replacement for the Nissan Murano, however, the auto-maker has always featured a top-heavy line-up when it comes to SUVs. Two of the nearest alternatives to the Murano come in the form of the Nissan X-Trail, a slightly smaller lifestyle SUV, and for those eyeing something a little larger and with more power, the Pathfinder, which is now much more in keeping with a lifestyle SUV as opposed to its original association with the Navara.

• How long will a Murano last?

  Whenever we're asked this question we always need to remind our members that it will depend on how well you take care of your car, the nature of your driving habits, as well as what you use the car for. With that in mind, you can expect a Nissan Murano to last upwards of 15 years, or 350,000 kilometres, if not far more on both counts. That means you are likely to still get some service out of a second-hand Murano, but you'll definitely need to keep your eyes peeled when inspecting its condition.
