DRIVEN + VIDEO: So, What Are The OTHER Guys Saying About The 2015 Nissan Murano?

When I first saw the launch of the all-new, 2015 Nissan Murano at the 2014 New York Auto Show, I remember being a bit entranced. Although I know a lot of folks here have expressed hatred for its all-new look, I dig it in a big way.

Just like I really appreciated the Sport Sedan Concept's design, I think it's a very strong look that will capture buyer's attention because it is bold.

So, aside from what we think though what are the other guys saying?

Well, CNET recently got its hands on an all-new Murano and produced a five-minute clip that summarizes its thinking pretty succinctly. Check it out below!


The new Nissan Murano may take its looks to the extreme, but we found it a very comfortable and accommodating driver.

Another example of Japanese/Korean car designers trying way too hard.

I agree but it feels like it was designed in France by Renault. The French love breathtakingly ugly cars.

I actually like the exterior styling. The Murano, to me, has always been the non-premium alternative to the Lexus RX for a stylish medium-sized SUV. The previous version looked too much like an alien pod.

The interior looks nice, too. It looks stylish and tasteful. HOWEVER, I wouldn't get it because the interior FEELS incredibly cheap, at least to me. I saw it at an auto show and was a bit surprised. I literally felt like I was going to break a few things as I was checking out the interior. Not sure I could live with that despite my two previous bullet-proof experiences with Nissans.

Wait until you see a production unit. May have been pre-production.

I applaud Nissan for taking a crossover and making it much more interesting. So many of the crossovers today are approaching mini-van/station wagon design cues that makes them unnecessarily boring.
