The 2015 Nissan Murano was recently selected as the top model in a Motor Trend comparison test that pitted this all-new model against the 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe and the 2015 Ford Edge. The comparison was conducted by Motor Trend Testing director Kim Reynolds who test drove all three vehicles to compare features and overall driving experience.
Overall, the 2015 Nissan Murano was selected as the winner due to its combination of style, sophistication, and available features. This new model offers a more luxurious interior design complete with more comfortable seats and increased legroom that offers a higher quality traveling experience. Reynolds also stated that the Navigation System in the 2015 Murano, which comes with a large touchscreen and crisp graphics, was the best that she has ever seen.
âOne of the central constructs for both the exterior and interior of the new Murano was to âelevate your experience,â which is counterintuitive to the heaviness and chunkiness of the traditional sport/utility vehicle. This helped inspire the push for leading-edge aerodynamic and three key elements of our future designs â the V-Motion front end, signature lighting, and the âfloatingâ roofline.â â Shiro Nakamura, Nissan senior vice president and chief creative officer.

2016 Nissan Maxima SR Midnight Makes Debut
Even though the 2016 Nissan Maxima only started itâs sales at the beginning of June, the new Maxima SR Midnight is already redefining sports style and taste. The new black-on-black Maxima SR made its debut in Los Angeles at the BET Experience last month. The BET Experience, where Nissan served as the official automotive sponsor, consisted of various events such as concerts, fashion shows, and many more.
Each 2016 Maxima is hooked up to a 3.5-liter VQ-series V6 engine that pushes out 300-horsepower and is paired with an Xtronic transmission.
Standard with every 2016 Maxima is a list of features that includes an around view monitor with moving object detection, 11-speaker BoseÂŽ premium audio system, a navigation system, Nissanâs V-motion grille, and many more. Other features available depending on the trim include premium Ascot leather-appointed seats, LED low beam headlights, rear cross traffic alert, blind spot warnings, Ascot leather-appointed steering wheel, aluminum sport pedals, and climate controlled seats, and a many more to give you a relaxing and convenient ride.
Currently, the Renault-Nissan Alliance is at the front of the pack when it comes to zero-emissions and just recently the branch achieved yet another major accomplishment. In early June, the Alliance sold its 250,000th car, a Renault ZOE. On top of that the Alliance makes up half the electric vehicles throughout the world. The Nissan LEAF is still the highest-selling electric vehicle ever with around 180,000 vehicles sold. The Alliance sold about 31,700 electric vehicles this year from January to May, around 15 percent more than the same time period in 2014.
“Demand for our electric vehicles continues to grow thanks to government incentives and the expanding charging infrastructure,” said Carlos Ghosn, Chairman and CEO of the Renault-Nissan Alliance. “The positive response of our customers is also driving demand. These vehicles enjoy some of the highest levels of satisfaction rates from our customers around the world.”
The Renault-Nissan alliance has proved to be a good partnership. With six models on the road, itâs the only global car company with a complete range of fully electric vehicles. Two fully electric Nissan vehicles and four fully electric Renaults. Since the Nissan LEAF first went on sale in December 2010 theyâve sold around 185,000 electric cars and since Renault first started selling electric cars in 2011 theyâve sold around 65,000 electric vehicles.

This annual event has been held for the past four years as a way to promote the benefits of driving an electric vehicle.
