The fully redesigned 2026 Nissan Murano brings a sleek, sanctuary-like crossover to the Inland Empire. For Ontario-area families and commuters, this new-generation Murano pairs a refined exterior — ultra-thin LED headlights and a full-width LED tail light — with a calm, modern cabin built around dual 12.3-inch displays. It feels as much like a luxury lounge as a daily driver.
At the heart of the 2026 Murano is the 2.0L VC-Turbo engine, which uses variable compression to balance power and efficiency. It delivers 241 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission (replacing the previous CVT) and paddle shifters for more direct control. Standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive across every trim continuously monitors conditions to send power where it’s needed — reassuring whether you hit a sudden rainstorm on the 10 or a slick morning commute.

| Horsepower | 241 hp |
| Torque | 260 lb-ft |

On efficiency, the 2026 Murano is EPA-rated at 21 city / 27 highway / 23 combined mpg — a balanced figure for both stop-and-go traffic and longer Inland Empire drives.
EPA-estimated fuel economy figures are for comparison purposes only. Your actual mileage will vary depending on driving conditions, how you drive and maintain your vehicle, battery age/condition, and other factors.
While the Murano leans toward comfort, it stays practical. Properly equipped, it tows up to 1,500 pounds — enough for a pair of jet skis or a small utility trailer. Behind the second row you get about 32.9 cubic feet of cargo space, expanding to roughly 63.5 cubic feet with the rear seats folded.
| Specification | 2026 Murano |
|---|---|
| Seating | 5 |
| Length | 192.9 in |
| Width | 78 in |
| Height | 67.9 in |
| Cargo (behind 2nd row) | 32.9 cu ft |

| Max towing | 1,500 lbs |
Maximum towing and payload capacity figures are based on properly equipped vehicles and vary by configuration. Do not exceed any weight rating. See your owner’s manual and the vehicle’s door-jamb label for specific capacities.

The 2026 Murano uses a 2.0L VC-Turbo four-cylinder making 241 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic. Its variable-compression design balances responsive power with everyday efficiency, and it runs on regular unleaded fuel.

No. The 2026 Murano’s VC-Turbo engine is designed to run on regular unleaded fuel while still delivering its full rated output.
