2018 Nissan Murano for Sale in Dearborn, Michigan

The 2018 Nissan Murano proves that a practical midsize SUV does not have to look boxy or feel ordinary. Available at Father & Son Auto Sales in Dearborn, Michigan, the Murano combines expressive styling, standard V6 power, a comfortable five-passenger cabin, and technology that was advanced for its model year.

This is an SUV for drivers who want everyday versatility but prefer a smoother, more upscale driving experience than many traditional family crossovers provide.

A Design That Still Stands Out

The Murano has always taken a different approach to SUV styling. Its sculpted body, sweeping character lines, floating-roof appearance, and distinctive front grille give it a premium look that remains recognizable years after its introduction.

Its rounded profile is more elegant than rugged, making the Murano especially appealing to drivers who want SUV space without the heavy, truck-inspired appearance of a larger utility vehicle.

Automatic headlights, LED daytime running lights, LED taillights, and rear privacy glass add to its modern presentation. Wheel designs and additional exterior equipment vary by trim.

Standard 3.5L V6 Power

Every 2018 Murano is powered by Nissan’s 3.5-liter DOHC V6 engine, producing 260 horsepower and 240 lb-ft of torque. Unlike many competing crossovers that use smaller turbocharged four-cylinder engines, the Murano provides the smooth response and passing power of a naturally aspirated V6.

The engine delivers confident acceleration for:

  • Merging onto I-94 or the Southfield Freeway
  • Passing at highway speeds
  • Carrying passengers and luggage
  • Longer road trips across Michigan
  • Everyday driving around Dearborn and Detroit

This V6 gives the Murano a relaxed character, with enough power available when traffic conditions require quicker acceleration.

Xtronic CVT with D-Step Logic

Power is delivered through Nissan’s Xtronic continuously variable transmission. It is not a conventional seven-speed automatic. Instead, the CVT continuously adjusts its ratio to balance acceleration, engine speed, and efficiency.

Nissan’s D-Step Logic is designed to simulate the familiar shift sensations of a traditional automatic during stronger acceleration. During relaxed cruising, the transmission can keep engine speed lower for a smoother and quieter experience.

The Murano was offered with front-wheel drive or available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. Contact Father & Son Auto Sales to confirm the drivetrain on this particular SUV.

Efficient for a V6 Midsize SUV

Both front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions received EPA estimates of approximately 21 MPG city, 28 MPG highway, and 24 MPG combined.

That provides a useful balance for shoppers who want V6 power without moving into a larger, heavier three-row SUV. Actual mileage will depend on the vehicle’s condition, maintenance, weather, traffic, driving style, and other factors.

A Cabin Designed Like a Lounge

Instead of trying to squeeze in a third row, the Murano focuses on providing generous room and comfort for five passengers. Nissan designed the interior with a wide center console, an open dashboard, and supportive Zero Gravity-inspired seating.

Passengers benefit from useful headroom and legroom in both rows, making the Murano comfortable for commuting, family use, or longer highway drives. Its two-row layout also allows rear passengers to ride without the tight quarters often found in the last row of a three-row crossover.

Standard dual-zone automatic climate control allows the driver and front passenger to choose individual temperature settings.

Depending on trim and factory equipment, this Murano may also include:

  • Leather-appointed seating
  • Heated front seats
  • Heated rear outboard seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Power-adjustable front seats
  • Driver-seat memory
  • Remote engine start
  • Power panoramic moonroof
  • Ambient interior lighting

Please contact our team to confirm the exact comfort features installed on this specific vehicle.

Flexible Space Behind the Second Row

The Murano provides approximately 32.1 cubic feet of cargo capacity behind the rear seat. That is enough room for groceries, suitcases, a stroller, work equipment, sports gear, or other daily necessities.

Folding the rear seat expands maximum cargo capacity to approximately 67 cubic feet. Convenient rear-seat release handles allow the seatbacks to be folded from the cargo area, saving you from walking around to each rear door.

Depending on trim, the Murano may also include a power liftgate or motion-activated liftgate for easier loading.

Impressive Standard Technology for 2018

One of the Murano’s strongest advantages is that important infotainment features were standard across the entire 2018 lineup. Every trim included a NissanConnect system with an 8-inch touchscreen and factory navigation.

Standard connectivity includes:

  • Apple CarPlay
  • Android Auto
  • Bluetooth hands-free calling
  • Bluetooth audio streaming
  • Voice recognition
  • HD Radio
  • USB connectivity
  • Steering-wheel-mounted controls
  • SiriusXM Traffic and Travel Link capability

Apple CarPlay and Android Auto allow compatible smartphones to display supported navigation, music, calling, and messaging functions through the touchscreen.

An 11-speaker Bose premium audio system was available on higher trims and option packages. Contact Father & Son Auto Sales to verify the audio equipment in this Murano.

Standard Forward-Collision Technology

For 2018, Nissan equipped every Murano trim with Intelligent Forward Collision Warning and Automatic Emergency Braking.

Intelligent Forward Collision Warning can monitor the vehicle ahead and may also detect changes involving a second vehicle farther up the road. Automatic Emergency Braking can provide warnings and apply braking assistance when the system detects a possible frontal collision.

Additional standard safety and stability equipment includes:

  • RearView Monitor
  • Vehicle Dynamic Control
  • Traction Control System
  • Anti-lock brakes
  • Brake Assist
  • Tire-pressure monitoring
  • Advanced airbag system
  • LATCH child-seat anchors
  • Hill-start assist

Blind Spot Warning and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert were included on certain higher trims rather than every Murano. Intelligent Cruise Control, Intelligent Around View Monitor, and Driver Alertness technology were also trim- or package-dependent.

Please contact us to verify which driver-assistance systems are installed on this specific vehicle. These technologies are designed to assist an attentive driver and cannot prevent every collision.

Available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive

If this Murano is equipped with Nissan’s available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, the system can automatically adjust power distribution based on acceleration, traction, and road conditions.

That capability can be valuable during Michigan rain, snow, and changing winter conditions. However, all-wheel drive does not replace appropriate tires, safe driving, or additional stopping distance on slippery roads.

Contact Father & Son Auto Sales to confirm whether this Murano is front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.

Is the 2018 Nissan Murano a Good Fit for You?

The Murano deserves consideration if you want:

  • Smooth V6 performance
  • Comfortable seating for five
  • More cargo room than a sedan
  • Standard navigation and smartphone integration
  • A quiet, road-trip-friendly interior
  • Available all-wheel drive
  • Distinctive styling
  • SUV versatility without third-row bulk

It is a compelling alternative to vehicles such as the Ford Edge, Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Toyota Venza, Chevrolet Blazer, and other two-row midsize SUVs.
