Nissan Murano 2023.

The new Nissan Murano 2023, which will come to Russia: Twitter revealed a lot of minuses.

Nissan recently brought to market the Murano, updated for the 2023 model year.

That crossover hasn’t arrived in Russia yet. But if Nissan restores production within the set time frame, sales of the new Murano in our country will start next year.

The current version of the Japanese model is similar to its predecessors in many ways.

The difference with them lies in the fact that the Nissan Murano 2023 acquired a number of new options.

But for this reason, the Japanese crossover retained many flaws, which Twitter users once again pointed out.

The modest payload limits practicality. It is slower than most competitors.

The crossover can’t tow heavy weekend «toys» like some competitors.

The Japanese model, according to users, is more of a car for emphasizing its status than for everyday driving.

Many competitors (not to mention Chinese classmates) surpass it in comfort, versatility and practicality.

Stable, reliable power is transferred to the road without noticeable gear shifts, except in cases of sudden acceleration.

The Murano’s driving dynamics are also generally positive.

Speed-sensitive steering contributes to stability, and the Murano handles increased cornering speed better than many midsize SUVs.

You do need to apply the brakes for maximum braking power, but otherwise the pedal feel is stable and the actual braking performance is adequate.

The Japanese model’s pluses include its excellent driving characteristics. The Murano is easy to drive, and its engines and transmission respond adequately to the driver.

However, as the reviews show, it takes some time to get used to the Japanese model.

But the Murano has a standard set of equipment to stand out from its classmates.

The Nissan Murano, judging by the comments, has a number of flaws that only become noticeable after some time.

And the part of the disadvantages shows itself only in comparison with competitors.

Murano stands out with its characteristic style. However, the driving experience is marred by poor visibility and average controllability, due to which the Murano seems larger than it is.

A powerful engine helps, but it doesn’t put the SUV in the upper echelon of fun-to-drive vehicles.

All told, the Murano is now inferior to its competitors in many characteristics.

But the Japanese model is expected to undergo profound changes in the next 1-2 years, as it has been sold as such for more than seven years.
