The end result of the Nissan Murano's first major redesign to fuel economy is a welcoming sigh of relief as the numbers remain at previous Murano levels. Regardless to selecting either the front-wheel or all-wheel drive, the 2009 Nissan Murano logs 18 city miles or up to 23 miles highway per gallon of premium gasoline recommended for running the 3.5 liter V6 engine. Being recommended but not required means that regular gasoline can be filled into the Murano for about 20 cents less without causing serious engine damage.
