2010 4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6
CVT AWD		 I think Nissan has an image of a small car company, and some of its offering (Cube,Juke) seem zany! There had also been bad press on how they had handled CVT issues until 2007. Nissan USA seems to have discouraged/disappointed too many valuable customers! see full Nissan Murano review

CVT FWD		 On-going reliability that is a step down from competitors. see full Nissan Murano review
