Here's what Edmunds.com has to say about the Nissan Murano: "Thanks to its strong V6, the Murano stomps most of its car-based competition. Acceleration is lively and handling is more nimble and manageable than truck-based SUVs. Buyers can choose between the sport-tuned SE model or the more softly calibrated SL form."

We happen to believe the Murano is one heck of an SUV. From its innovative styling, to its feature level, to its car-like handling, we've always been impressed.

And we're far from alone on this. "Expert" reviews have always been strong for this crossover (an SUV built on a car platform) and commonly note superior steering and handling, transmission behavior, ride stability, comfort and support as well as performance.

We'd have to say that its handling is its most impressive quality. The steering is easy and precise and it holds flat in the curves. The engine is very energetic with quick acceleration and highway passing is a breeze. And seating is particularly comfortable with excellent back support. Plenty of leg room and interior space as well.

It doesn't suprise us a bit that J.D. Power rates it a perfect 5 for Performance, Style and Creature Comforts. And owners give it high grades as well. 228 Consumer Reviews over at edmunds.com give it a whopping 9.2 out of 10. And whose opionions are better than people who actually own a vehicle?
