The Japanese maker says it is in no hurry to add the oil-burning variant Down Under, and has taken the opportunity to increase Murano prices in tandem with the latest upgrade. The Murano now opens at $46,490 for the entry-level ST automatic (up $500), which gains a Bluetooth phone system with steering wheel mounted controls, plus the Nissan Intelligent Key push-button starting system formerly exclusive to the top-shelf Ti. ![]() Reflecting the upgrade, the Murano flagship is now priced at $57,890 – up $2000. Launched here in January 2009, the second-generation Murano enjoyed a massive 261 per cent increase in demand last year, when more than 3000 examples of the sealed-road SUV found homes in Australia. There are no changes to the Murano’s 191kW/336Nm VQ35DE 3.5-litre petrol V6, standard CVT automatic or All-Mode 4x4 system, and standard specifications continue to include leather upholstery, a climate-control with mild-flow feature technology and six-spoke, 18-inch alloy wheels. “We are delighted the new Nissan Murano has been so successful with buyers of premium SUVs, given the ultra-competitive market,” said Nissan Australia CEO Dan Thompson. ![]() Read more17th of March 2010 ![]() Nissan mulls diesel MuranoMurano goes diesel in Europe, opening the door for Nissan to tick the box for OzAll new models![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Motor industry news |
