Design:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The upcoming model will feature an <strong>updated V-Motion grille<\/strong> that&#8217;s wider but doesn&#8217;t extend as far into the front fascia as the current model.<\/li>\n<li>The previously oversized headlights are set to be <strong>downsized <\/strong>with some elements being relocated closer to the grille.<\/li>\n<li>The front design closely resembles the<strong>\u00a0 Nissan Ariya<\/strong>, but the Murano is expected to have a more polished appearance.<\/li>\n<li>From the side, the new Murano closely mirrors its predecessor. The distinct C-pillar design remains, as does the unique beltline behind the side glass.<\/li>\n<li>At the rear, there&#8217;s a\u00a0 <strong>new lower fascia<\/strong> with a repositioned license plate cutout. The taillights are sleeker and may be connected by an LED strip.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-76930 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/livingimage.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/new-nissan-murano-rendering-1-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"new-nissan-murano-rendering-1\" width=\"850\" height=\"479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/livingimage.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/new-nissan-murano-rendering-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/livingimage.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/new-nissan-murano-rendering-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/livingimage.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/new-nissan-murano-rendering-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/livingimage.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/new-nissan-murano-rendering-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/livingimage.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/new-nissan-murano-rendering-1.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>2. Platform and Powertrain:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The underlying platform, Nissan\u2019s D platform, will likely be carried over.<\/li>\n<li>The **3.5-liter V6 engine** will remain but is expected to be updated. This engine will be mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission, likely offering an all-wheel-drive setup.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>3. Pricing and Trim:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The base S grade of the Murano is being retired for 2024. The **SV trim will now be the starting model**, priced at $39,255. This is a $760 increase from the 2023 Murano SV.<\/li>\n<li>The price bump is partly due to the increase in the destination charge, which now stands at $1,335, up from the previous $1,295.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>For those who are fans of the current Murano design, there&#8217;s still a chance to purchase the current model for another year. However, for those seeking a refreshed and sophisticated look, the upcoming Murano promises exciting changes in its design, albeit with familiar underpinnings.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"source\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kolesa.ru\/news\/novyy-nissan-murano-pervye-izobrazheniya\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kolesa.ru<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motor1.com\/news\/685996\/new-nissan-murano-rendered-spy-photos\/\">Motor1<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":76929,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,39],"tags":[27110],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76928"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76928"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76928\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":76931,"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76928\/revisions\/76931"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/76929"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76928"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76928"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livingwithgravity.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76928"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
