The Nissan Murano (Japanese: 日産・ムラーノ, Hepburn: Nissan Murāno) is a mid-size crossover SUV manufactured and marketed by Nissan since May 2002 for the 2003 model year. The fourth generation was revealed in October 2024. As Nissan's first crossover SUV for the United States and Canada, the Murano was designed at Nissan America in La Jolla, California, and was based on the Nissan FF-L platform shared with the third generation Altima. The European version of the Murano began sales in 2004. The Murano was Nissan's only crossover SUV in the United States until September 2007, when the Rogue went on sale. In Canada, the X-Trail had been on sale as Nissan's second car based SUV since 2004 as a model for 2005; it was replaced by the 2008 Rogue at the end of 2007. The Murano is sized between the Pathfinder and the discontinued Xterra (which was replaced by the Rogue as a compact SUV). For the model years of 2011 to 2014, a convertible variant, the Murano CrossCabriolet, was available for the second-generation model. As of 2018, the Murano is sized between the X-Trail and the larger Pathfinder. The nameplate Murano derives from the Italian islands of Murano and the namesake Murano art glass for which the islands are widely known.
