2015 Nissan Murano Equipped with Futuristic Exterior

The futuristic exterior of the 2015 Nissan Murno was designed to slip through the wind like a sports car, while retaining the interior dimensions of a premium SUV. The new Murano has the same 0.31 drag coefficient as the iconic Porsche 911 Turbo, yet still has more rear legroom than the Lexus RX350. The new model features a fuel efficiency that has been increase by about 20%, while every ounce of power has been retained – through extended wind-tunnel testing and analysis, Nissan was able to give it an aerodynamic profile that cuts down on the wind resistance. The new Murano also weighs approximately 130 pounds less than the previous model, which also contributes to the improved fuel efficiency.

Nissan: Self-Driving Vehicles Long Way from Commercial Reality


Last year Nissan announced that self-driving vehicles were not too far away from a reality. In fact the Japanese auto manufacturer said that they would become a commercial reality by 2020. They made a similar promise years ago before they launched electric vehicles – which made them the leader in new technology in previous years. Nissan Chief Executive Officer, Carlos Ghosn, took his comment back from the previous year by saying, “Self-driving cars remain a long way from a commercial reality.” However, Google is ready to push auto manufacturers towards a driverless paradigm – recently, the popular search engine added Ford Motor’s, well respected former CEO, Alan Mulally to its board of directors. This recent addition to the board has made the possibility of driver-less vehicles more credible. If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:

Nissan’s Steroidal Godzilla


The new 2015 Nissan GT-R NISMO is an upgraded version of Nissan’s power machine – since this vehicle model was first launched in 2009, Nissan has tweaked and upgraded the vehicle every year. This next model will receive an extra dose of power with a revised suspension that promises better ride quality and improved grip on the black top. Nissan has also implemented new spring rates and re-valved dampers along with new softer front anti-roll bar bushings. These are the type of changes that you can actually feel from the driver’s seat – previous model year cars typically followed grooves and ruts in the road, but this new car tracks free and smoothly on the highway. Bilstein dampers can be adjusted to a ‘Comfort’ setting to provide a more relaxed trip. If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:
