Used 2020 Nissan Murano SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2020 Nissan Murano is offered in four trims: S, SV, SL and Platinum. The S is the base model and comes with a stout list of standard features. SV versions add the advanced safety package, and the SL offers luxurious touches. The top-end Platinum includes the range of Nissan connected services and a handsome dark wood interior.

A 3.5-liter V6 engine (260 hp, 240 lb-ft) is standard on all trim levels. It is mated to the Nissan Xtronic continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). Both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive are available across the range.

Standard features on the base S model include 18-inch wheels, a six-way manually adjustable driver's seat, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. There is an 8-inch touchscreen and one USB and one USB-C port in both the front and rear. Automatic emergency braking also provides additional safety.

Moving up to the SV trim adds several significant features for a reasonable price, namely adaptive cruise control and the full Nissan Safety Shield 360 technology package. The SV also comes with a leather-wrapped steering wheel and power-adjustable front seats. Black roof rails are added on top.

Opt for the SL and the Murano really starts to take shape. It gets 20-inch wheels, and the seats are upgraded to heated leather both front and rear. A heated steering wheel, silver roof rails and LED foglights join the fold. Navigation and the 11-speaker Bose audio system are also standard. It's topped off by ambient interior lighting and a power liftgate.

On top of that, the fully loaded Platinum gets a dual-panel moonroof, premium leather with diamond-quilted seat inserts, ventilated front seats, and more.

Which Murano trim does Edmunds recommend?

Take a hard look at the Murano SV, which offers desirable standard equipment — leather-wrapped steering wheel, roof rails and automatic safety aids — with the opportunity to add much more if you have room in your checkbook. The 18-inch wheels offer a more comfortable ride than larger ones on upper trims, too. All-wheel drive isn't necessary since capability isn't a strong point. Of course if you're enticed by the Murano SL with its leather seats and Bose audio, we won't blame you.
