The 2025 Nissan Murano SV with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive marks a significant evolution for the mid-size crossover, highlighted by a new turbocharged engine, a redesigned interior with advanced technology, and a comprehensive suite of standard safety features. This latest iteration moves away from its V6 predecessor, adopting a more modern and efficient powertrain.

New Powertrain: VC-Turbo Engine and 9-Speed Automatic

At the heart of the 2025 Murano SV AWD is a new 2.0-liter Variable Compression (VC) Turbo inline-4 engine. This powertrain delivers a robust 241 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, promising a responsive and engaging driving experience. Paired with this new engine is a 9-speed automatic transmission, which replaces the previous generation’s continuously variable transmission (CVT). This combination is designed to offer both refined performance and improved fuel efficiency, with preliminary estimates suggesting a fuel economy of approximately 21 MPG in the city and 27 MPG on the highway. The Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system provides enhanced traction and stability in various driving conditions.

Redesigned Interior and Advanced Technology

Inside, the 2025 Murano SV boasts a thoroughly modernized cabin focused on comfort and connectivity. A centerpiece of the new design is the dual 12.3-inch display setup, which includes a digital dashboard for the driver and a central touchscreen for infotainment. Standard features for the SV trim include leatherette-appointed seats, heated front seats, and an 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat. The infotainment system features wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and a six-speaker audio system is standard. Other conveniences include dual-zone automatic climate control, a leatherette-wrapped steering wheel, and four USB-C ports.

Comprehensive Safety and Driver-Assist Features

Nissan has equipped the 2025 Murano SV AWD with its comprehensive Safety Shield 360 suite of advanced driver-assistance systems. This standard package includes Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, High Beam Assist, and Rear Automatic Braking. Further enhancing driver confidence are standard features like Intelligent Cruise Control and ProPILOT Assist, which helps with steering, acceleration, and braking in single-lane highway driving.

Sleek Exterior Styling

The 2025 Murano SV features a refreshed exterior design. Standard exterior features for the SV trim include 20-inch gloss black aluminum-alloy wheels, LED headlights and taillights, and heated outside mirrors.

Dimensions and Cargo

The five-passenger crossover is built to offer ample space for both occupants and their belongings. The 2025 Murano provides a cargo capacity of 32.9 cubic feet with the rear seats in place, which expands to 63.5 cubic feet when the 60/40-split rear bench is folded down. It also has a maximum towing capacity of 1,500 pounds.
