<\/p>\nThe current-generation Nissan Murano debuted back in 2014, showing its skin as a 2015 model at the New York Auto Show. That’s straight-up prehistoric in the fast-moving SUV world, and now we finally have proof that the Murano hasn’t been forgotten in Nissan’s lineup. Fresh spy photos capture our first look at the next-generation model.<\/p>\n
Snapped recently near Nissan corporate offices in Michigan, this camo-wrapped test vehicle succeeds in hiding design details but still reveals plenty about the new Murano. The outline of the V-Motion grille is easy to make out, appearing a bit wider while not dipping quite as deep into the front fascia. The large headlights of the current model will get much smaller, and it appears some lighting elements will be relocated to the grille. Down low, the central vent is smaller, but the overall takeaway is a face similar to Muranos currently sitting on dealership lots.<\/p>\n

For that matter, there’s a striking similarity to the present-day Murano in profile view as well. The kink to the C-pillar is visible beneath the camo wrap, and we’re pretty sure the Murano’s beltline still has the hump behind the side glass. Whether the floating-roof motif carries over is unknown, but the roofline looks much like the current model. At the back is a new lower fascia with a license plate cutout positioned lower, and it looks like the taillights shrink in size like the headlights.<\/p>\n
