Nissan Murano Safe, Qashqai Name A Good Thing: Nissan Australia Boss

2014 NISSAN PATHFINDER AUSTRALIA

Nissan Australia’s new Managing Director, Peter Jones, says the arrival of the new Pathfinder won’t threaten the Murano SUV, despite sharing the same engine and offering two extra seats.

Speaking with TMR at the launch of the 2014 Pathfinder, Mr Jones said the slow-selling Murano would continue to be a part of the company’s extensive line up of SUVs.

The current Murano launched in 2009, and features the same suspension architecture, transmission and VQ35DE petrol V6 engine as the newly-arrived R52 Pathfinder.
