The 2026 Nissan Murano® brings together modern design, serene comfort, and confident technology in a way that speaks directly to how Lakewood, CO drivers actually buy and live with a midsize SUV. Through a local lens, what stands out most is how thoroughly Nissan engineered this Murano for everyday ease — from standard dual 12.3-inch displays and a spacious, five-passenger interior to available Invisible Hood View and advanced hands-off capability with ProPILOT Assist 2.1. Recent recognition underscores its strengths, with the 2025 Murano earning J.D. Power #1 for New Vehicle Dependability among Midsize SUVs and an IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+. Researching your next SUV is simpler when the essentials align: upscale comfort for Colfax Avenue commutes, Intelligent All-Wheel Drive for C-470 and foothills runs, and tech that helps you park confidently in tighter Lakewood spots. If your checklist includes reliability, refinement, and truly useful driver assistance, the 2026 Murano deserves to be at the top.
The Murano’s innovative 2.0-liter VC-Turbo® engine delivers 241 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, pairing smooth acceleration with up to 27 highway mpg. A 9-speed automatic transmission and available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive help you move confidently from city streets to mountain linkups. With 8.3 inches of ground clearance, the Murano is equally at home cruising W Colfax or heading toward trailheads near Green Mountain. Helpful touches like Automatic Brake Hold and an electronic shifter raise daily driving convenience, while up to 1,500 pounds of maximum towing capability makes small-gear weekends a realistic part of your routine.
Step inside the Murano and the first impression is calm refinement. Venetian glass-inspired accents, soft-touch surfaces, and thoughtful ergonomics set a relaxed tone, while the standard dual 12.3-inch screens — including the “Monolith” display presentation — make maps, audio, and vehicle data feel intuitive rather than overwhelming. The available Head-Up Display helps keep your eyes forward on I-70 merges, and the optional Bose Premium Audio System lends a premium soundtrack to every outing. With the available panoramic moonroof and massaging front seats, everyday errands start to feel a bit more like a personal retreat, and the available Motion Activated Liftgate makes loading gear effortless when you’re juggling groceries or hiking packs.
Every 2026 Murano includes Safety Shield® 360 for smart coverage in front, beside, and behind you, and it layers in more advanced systems as you move through the lineup. The available HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View® Monitor and Invisible Hood View can be game-changers in tight garages, angled curbs, and crowded lots — places where Lakewood drivers spend real time. For those longer stretches on C-470, available ProPILOT Assist 2.1 brings hands-off capability in certain conditions, helping reduce fatigue while maintaining a smooth, confident pace. It all adds up to a more supportive, less stressful drive.

Across the midsize SUV class, many rivals save their most helpful tech for top trims, or they don’t offer hands-off capability at all. The Murano brings standout features that matter in daily life around Lakewood — from available Invisible Hood View that helps you avoid curbs and parking blocks at Belmar or along Union Boulevard, to available ProPILOT Assist 2.1 that smooths longer stretches on I-70. Some competitors lack the Murano’s combination of premium available seating with massage and the intuitive, standard dual 12.3-inch screens, or they package similar tech only with costly bundles. The Murano’s thoughtful blend of comfort, visibility, and confident driver assistance is what makes it a particularly smart fit for Colorado drivers who split time between the city and the foothills.
