That damn Murano with the VQ35DE has been EXCELLENT for my family. Writing this in 2022 I will tell you that people are missing the instantaneous response and torque of the V6. Thankfully, I still have one. Sometimes you don't know what you have until it's gone....
I really do like this car, I have been a big Nissan fan for a long time now and they never failed to impress me. Thanks for your review, because as always you are very knowledgeable and have the information for a consumer to make a good decision when researching and purchasing a new automobile.
I've driven the Murano as a loaner car while my RAV4 was getting fixed, and let me tell you, it's a great car, but it is definitely huge. It was definitely hard to park it in my garage since it is pretty wide.
Thanks for the review. I Got the platinum with technology package, but it doesn't have the lane departure warning as you mentioned in your video. It's only blind stop, forward collision warning with emergency braking, and smart Cruz. That's it. This car is extremely stylish and comfortable. LED headlights are quite awesome and it gives you very good vision.
I really love it in black... but for people saying they hate CVT's; Nissan doesn't make a bad CVT, or a bad vehicle, but its definitely something you have to get used to. I've driven Pathfinders and Altima's and sometimes found it to be jerky and laggy and droney at times. I just wish they would've stuck with a normal transmission...
Yes i do, i don't think either Infiniti or Nissan gives great steering wheels, except for the Fx37 and g series but warning they are very small in diameter.
Checked it out this weekend. Its very nice. Posh interior, the seats are very comfortable, drives smooth etc. My only issue and this is with many new cars is the visibility. I felt I had lots of rear blind spots and even sat too low in the drivers position.
Love our 2015 Murano. We have been getting around 33-35 mpg on the highway, and 25 in town. We still have our 2007 Murano and to me the steering in the 07 is heavier and it's lighter in the 15. I can get the 07 Murano to peel out and with the 15 I can't. The awd has definitely improved too.
@@theminicooper We changed our CVT and differential fluids every 30k and haven’t had any issues. We have about 198k on the 2015 and still running strong. Changed the spark plugs twice already. First set at 90k and the second set at 180k. Each time we also replaced the valve cover gaskets just so they don’t start leaking. My sister loved the Murano so much she bought one in 2018 and she has 87k and still running just fine.
Turbo is not always a good thing in the economy segment. Turbo leads to many reliability issues. The reliability is more important than acceleration or few added mpg's.
Do you want to compare a turbo vs none turbo vehicle? More moving parts= less reliable. Do you know what the fuck you even talking about? "No, they don't. Some of the most reliable cars today are turbos. Toyota, Honda and Nissan have done reliable turbos before." Do you even know reliability of 300zx vs 350z? TURBO'S are more prone to service/maintenance problems. PERIOD. Cars get more and more reliable every year? Am I debating with a 12 year old? Show me new cars that last through generations and get passed on to grandchildren? Paint rusts, parts are deigned to only last until warranty runs out. Plastics hoes... Go lease a BMW and stfu. PS. Sorry if I hurt your feelings but you are way wrong on this one. Fuel injection is actually a good thing for naturally aspirated engine, turbo is NOT. PPS. Before you fly of the handle like me, go a head and Google reliability comparisons.
at 28 mpg epa for awd, in a vehicle this size, I'm surprised to hear you say you wish there was a fuel efficient option. This is one of the most fuel efficient vehicles in this segment.
If the Pathfinder's interior was carried over from the Murano, I would have considered one but the fact it's so expensive especially with it's subpar interior, I cant see why I would get a pathfinder, especially with how there are better alternatives like the Durango. Come to think of it, I would also get a Jeep Grand Cherokee over a Murano. Also, the Nissan Murano isn't the first mid sized crossover, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is. And yes, I consider the Grand Cherokee a crossover because it was always built on a unibody chassis which in my opinion, if an SUV is built so, it's a crossover.
Am seriously contemplating on buying a 2015 or 2016 one, but am reading lot of CVT problems. Do these newer gen Muranos also have these issues or it is safe to buy one? Please advise.
Is there a big difference for the 2019 model? Or the model 2015 to 2019 pretty much the same would make easier to buy the early year to save 10 or 20 grand?
Just a suggestion... I'd prefer if you do the tour of the car outside instead of indoors... combined with your post-processing of the video (which is too contrasty by the way), it makes the car you're reviewing hard to see. Thanks.
So why doesn't Redline Reviews use manual exposure for the review segment at 9 min? Brightness far to rapidly there. Exposure should focus on reviewer, not landscape, right?
Well I don't have to say that the video is too dark. Everyone else already did. However, I am a fan of the chanel anyway. Mr. Bey can you please re-shoot this video? Thank you.
I really like this guy's reviews, he does a real good job. However I agree, when a car guy does not respect the rules of the road it takes away from their cred. Note that there were also school crosswalks, not cool.
Seems like Nissan is coming up. Hopefully they'll fix the Sentra and Altima soon. In my opinion, Nissans of the last few years have had a really cheap look to them. Glad to see they're finding their stride.
This car is perfect for the family car . You droved this car 60 mph in 30mph speed limit zone. I hope, you will stop testing the vehicles in residential areas. Thank you!
at 9:06 passing a 30 MPH sign doing 60, LOL. The car is slow off the line, I went from a V6 car to a Murano and for moves like making a right turn on red into 55 MPH traffic you need to give yourself some extra room.
Again with the AWD in the 'burbs & not even a dirt-road or anything to simulate snow. I get they aren't off-road but most people in the upper half of the country buy these things--even the 'mommy wagons'--with snow and/or occasional rough roads in mind.
The steering on the 2015 Murano just feels numb and there is no feedback from the wheels. And it doesn't help that the front of the 2015 Murano looks like Donald Duck... ugly as sin. A much better looking car with more satisfying handling and driving experience (how an SUV crossover SHOULD feel like) is the 2015 KIA Sorento. The 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe is also a much better choice over the 2015 Murano.
Stefan Schmidt I would rank the 2015 KIA Sorento as the best SUV this year. Close 2nd is the 2015 Territory and 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe. The 2015 Murano is too ugly to compete.
FrenchVoyeur On the contrary, the Nissan Murano has always been known for its cutting edge designs. The Nissan Altima certainly has found a strong following. I would say that most Nissan products have cutting edge designs that aren't trying to copy others. And for that I thank them.
I found this review to be somewhat annoying. An individual with more maturity and wisdom might provide us with a less slanted review. While pointing out the virtues as well as the faults this reviewer couldn't help himself but denegrate the vehicle for not being sporty (rough riding) and "fun" to drive. He's right. People who purchase in this segment generally are not looking for a sports car. It's inherently higher center of gravity and tendency to roll over in an accident compared to cars would preclude most from even thinking in that direction. As he stated the new Murano is quiet, stable, soft riding with lots of creature comforts. That is what I am looking for.
About the same size ws your average mid sized car? At 14 feet it is about the same length as a crv. The design is an illusion that makec itook longer. And it's only 2 tons about the samr weight as thr crv--only with much more hp. Murano is new king of 5 passengeg suvs
I won't buy it. My Mustang GT with a VMP supercharger will provide better 0-60 times. Get with it Nissan!! Love how the reviewer stereotypes people who might buy this crossover vehicle.
Dont Buy Nissan, I owned a Nissan Murano years ago, its the worse decision I made to buy this scrap. Not only the quality its poor, but the service. I live in Mexico and the Nissan shops are very corrupt, they steal the people by not doing the service they should.

I am glad they are sawing what they deserve. I made may complaints and never receive attention, Now I am with Honda, Ford and GM. Better quality at least for the same or better price cars.
Not a great review in my opinion...talking way too fast and driving unsafe through residential neighborhoods where kids are playing (ay least 40mph in a 30mph zone at 9:05). Get it out on the highway to do that bud!
I really don't get why people hate on CVTs so much. Is it to fit in with the crowd? To be like everybody else? Does it make you sound like more of a "car guy" if you hate on CVTs? They really aren't that bad. Honda's CVT you can't even tell it's a CVT. In fact after I drove the Accord I looked up the mechanical specs and I was literally shocked when I found out it was paired with a CVT. Most CVTs on the market today are extremely quiet, smooth, and provide nice linear, predictable acceleration. They are way smoother than traditional automatics, which jerk you back and forth with constant gear changes and hunting. CVTs smoothly raise rev's when you need it, and drop the rev's back down when you don't. No harsh gear changes or hunting. In the Accord's CVT the rev's respond shockingly well to the driver's input. The rev's will go up simultaneously as you apply pressure to the accelerator and it's a very nice feeling. Makes the car feel very safe and predictable. That being said if you truly want a "fun" car, just buy a manual. However, if you just need a simple A to B transportation appliance, what the hell does it matter if you have a CVT or an automatic? Both transmissions are pretty simple and straightforward to operate: just push the gas and go. I mean if "fun" is that much of a concern, why not just ignore the auto's and the cvt's and just go for a manual.
bokkey45 I love the Murano CVT it works great and hopefully other car companies start using the tech that nissan used in this cvt. I love the simulated gear changes.

I got 06´Murano with 22 wheels, exhaust and suspension, man I love the exhaust!

Good review as always. One suggestion: show the interior outside, not in a garage. It's very dark and is really hard to see the inside the car.

Yes i do, i don't think either Infiniti or Nissan gives great steering wheels, except for the Fx37 and g series but warning they are very small in diameter.
yes.
I like the ones like the pathfinder
Anthony Haripersaud Thats one of the worst (imo).
Really because I like it but I don't like Altima wheels

You comment dates from 6 years ago. Can you speak to the long term reliability/maintenance cost of your 2015 Murano? Thanks! :)
@@theminicooper We changed our CVT and differential fluids every 30k and haven’t had any issues. We have about 198k on the 2015 and still running strong. Changed the spark plugs twice already.

Amazing! Thanks for taking the time to answer! ❤
Family member of mine owns a 2015 Murano SL AWD, but it lacks rain sensing wipers which is surprising given the cost of the vehicle.
Thats good rain sensing wipers are horrible

Everything looks so dark .... U need a sunny day for a black car with black interior
Yeah a parking garage is not the best place for a all black interior showing....
It's in a nissan parking garage so spy's dont get sneaky and shit
The huge panoramic sunroof takes care of that! ;)
Racist...
Jk
Its February
Great review.
Why do they mimic shifts when you plant the throttle? Wouldn't it be faster to stay near redline, albeit with an unorthodox drone.
If the Pathfinder's interior was carried over from the Murano, I would have considered one but the fact it's so expensive especially with it's subpar interior, I cant see why I would get a pathfinder, especially with how there are better alternatives like the Durango.

And yes, I consider the Grand Cherokee a crossover because it was always built on a unibody chassis which in my opinion, if an SUV is built so, it's a crossover.
8 years ago today!! I try to buy one Sofyan.
Am seriously contemplating on buying a 2015 or 2016 one, but am reading lot of CVT problems. Do these newer gen Muranos also have these issues or it is safe to buy one? Please advise.

Love the steering wheel
Review was well thought out, but could barely see anything because of lighting. Please shoot in better lighting (Perhaps outdoors) for future reviews.
I bought it after watching your video
I was looking for 2004-2008 Nissan Quest designed car
I just love it, would be great if u did a review on it
drove one! Very mature and smooth and luxury. Unbelievable.
I would love it if you did the 2016 Lexus LX and RX models
This was a good review! Whenever you get a chance... can you please do a review on the 2015 Jeep Renegade limited or trailhawk? Sofyan Bey
I like the new intro a lot better, please keep!!
My dad has sensors in his 2017 sv. But they did install them 2 weeks later after the ownership of the Murano. You just have to ask the,
I am thinking about getting one next year 2021
I got a heart attack with the loud NISSAN!!! opening statement
Like the new CVT.
I love my 2015 Nissan Murano which we call her summer
Should you buy this if the mileage is High meaning @100,000?
The interior shot was so dark for a moment i thought i was inside a deep sea submarine.
Multiple reviewers complain about the steering.
Use the top level of the parking garage to avoid the echo's.
Which would you prefer a loaded CX-5 or the Morano?
A fully loaded cx5 bearly matches a medium loaded murano
not in the same class. cx5 competes with the Rogue
Just a suggestion... I'd prefer if you do the tour of the car outside instead of indoors... combined with your post-processing of the video (which is too contrasty by the way), it makes the car you're reviewing hard to see. Thanks.
*****
Yes, indoors meaning garage area. Having an exterior overview outside the vehicle would help also.
I wish Nissan offer a v6 option of this Murano on the Rogue. It'll be a sweet ride.
Do you have any plan for the 2016 Mazda CX-5 review?
So why doesn't Redline Reviews use manual exposure for the review segment at 9 min?
Brightness far to rapidly there. Exposure should focus on reviewer, not landscape, right?
You should do reviews more often.
are you reviewing this in your garage???
Can you PLEASE do a 2015 Kia Sedona. I have been dying for you to review one.
Bruh that's a minivan.... : /
Kenny M L..O..L!!
Well I don't have to say that the video is too dark. Everyone else already did. However, I am a fan of the chanel anyway. Mr. Bey can you please re-shoot this video? Thank you.
I can't decide between the 2015 Rogue or the 2015 Murano... I'll probably get the Rogue because of price.
But this channel DOES NOT have ONE MINIVAN. I just thought it would be nice to have a minivan on here for the first time.
60mph in a 30mph zone. test acceleration/speed on the highway or on open road and not in residential areas.
I really like this guy's reviews, he does a real good job. However I agree, when a car guy does not respect the rules of the road it takes away from their cred. Note that there were also school crosswalks, not cool.
Are you gonna do a review on the 2015 honda fit any time soon ?
Also, I would like you to do a Murano crosscabriolet.
When are u guys going to review the new fit?
Does anyone know if the SL comes with HID headlights? I know the Platinum trim comes with LED DRL and LED low beams.
Platinum review should be done
Seems like Nissan is coming up. Hopefully they'll fix the Sentra and Altima soon. In my opinion, Nissans of the last few years have had a really cheap look to them. Glad to see they're finding their stride.
9:00 going way over 30 there bud hahaha... jk love your videos
This is the SV model - not the S. The S is the base model.
This car is perfect for the family car . You droved this car 60 mph in 30mph speed limit zone. I hope, you will stop testing the vehicles in residential areas. Thank you!
Please do a review on a 2015 mb s class
at 9:06 passing a 30 MPH sign doing 60, LOL. The car is slow off the line, I went from a V6 car to a Murano and for moves like making a right turn on red into 55 MPH traffic you need to give yourself some extra room.
Finally Nissan got it right with the new styling. The rouge's front end looks too long/big. Murano looks clean, but those rims gotta go.
Review in a dark garage without compensating additional lighting makes it hard to see.
Again with the AWD in the 'burbs & not even a dirt-road or anything to simulate snow. I get they aren't off-road but most people in the upper half of the country buy these things--even the 'mommy wagons'--with snow and/or occasional rough roads in mind.
Does anyone know if The 2018 S AWD Trim come with remote start ?
Shazzy Ahmed nope. Gotta go with the SV for that.
Beautiful car but is one with the most rear door problems.
Are you only reviewing new cars now?
I think so
is there adjustable pedals?
BRING BACK THE OLD REV INTRO!!!!
very dark review at the beginning, but the murano seems like a nice car for the target audience
The steering on the 2015 Murano just feels numb and there is no feedback from the wheels. And it doesn't help that the front of the 2015 Murano looks like Donald Duck... ugly as sin.

The 2015 Murano is too ugly to compete.
Stefan Schmidt The 2014 Murano had a poor design, the 2015 Murano looks even uglier.
StealthTechz Nissan's in general have old looking, poor designs. Except maybe the Nissan GTR. But Nissan are known for cheap designs.
Stefan Schmidt Hyundai and Kia is better SUV maker because they are making tanks and APCs too
FrenchVoyeur On the contrary, the Nissan Murano has always been known for its cutting edge designs. The Nissan Altima certainly has found a strong following. I would say that most Nissan products have cutting edge designs that aren't trying to copy others. And for that I thank them.

The sterrimg wheel comes off the pathfinder not the altima
That's what he said. He also said he wish they HAD used the altimas steering wheel.
That CVT that "shifts" makes me mad, it defeats the purpose of the CVT. I hope you can turn it off and turn it into a normal CVT.
I see 1 major wrong thing with this review. is you reviewing black interior car in dark parking garage. Next time take it under day light.
About the same size ws your average mid sized car? At 14 feet it is about the same length as a crv. The design is an illusion that makec itook longer. And it's only 2
tons about the samr weight as thr crv--only with much more hp. Murano is new king of 5 passengeg suvs
How a 2014 escape se has sensers and this one dont
Q50 Please!
it will be better if you posted the ZL1 Camaro
it will be better if you never posted your camaro post
The lighting is bad in this video. The car looks all but but I'm disappointed to hear that the handling is not that good.
I won't buy it. My Mustang GT with a VMP supercharger will provide better 0-60 times. Get with it Nissan!! Love how the reviewer stereotypes people who might buy this crossover vehicle.
jesaliga why are you comparing a mustang to a mid-size suv idiot?

to buy this scrap. Not only the quality its poor, but the service. I live in Mexico
and the Nissan shops are very corrupt, they steal the people by not doing the
service they should. Tons of people report they don’t get the oil changes and
replacement parts they charge. Problems are never solved properly and there are
tons of complaints. I am glad they are sawing what they deserve.

Doing a video in the dark??? really dude
Haha
why would you review car in a darkness...

I don't like the grill on this looks like a beaver tooth
Ugh CVT, can't stand cars with CVTs
why?
I've never experienced a cvt until I bought a 2015 Corolla s. I always hated te idea & drone of the hi rev engine. I'm pleased with Toyotas cvt
They're so awkward to drive, plus they're unreliable
I really don't get why people hate on CVTs so much. Is it to fit in with the crowd? To be like everybody else? Does it make you sound like more of a "car guy" if you hate on CVTs?

How?
@@ATH-camChannelwithNoName i owned one recently and it would always have engine/transmission problems
I hate this ugliness of 2018-2017 or 2016
I wish they would just discontinue the Murano already.. absolutely nothing is attractive about it :/
what do you have in mind that's better than the Nissan Murano? the Ford edge??😂😂 lmaoo
Got damn that car is ugly, I have no hope for the upcoming Maxima damn.
