Model profile
Three generations are relevant. The first (Z50, 2003-2007) introduced the concept: a curvaceous crossover on the FF-L platform with the 3.5-litre VQ35 V6. The second (Z51, 2009-2014) refined the formula with more equipment and a stiffer body. The third (Z52, 2015-2024) brought the dramatic "floating roof" design, the VQ35DE V6 carried over, and a plush, well-isolated interior that reviewers regularly praised.
Powertrain and equipment
Almost every US Murano uses the 3.5-litre VQ35 V6, producing roughly 260 hp depending on year, paired exclusively with a continuously variable transmission (Xtronic CVT). Drive goes to the front wheels as standard, with an on-demand all-wheel-drive system optional across the range.
The US range typically runs S, SV, SL and the Platinum flagship, all as a single five-door, five-seat crossover.
Vehicle selection
Murano supply in the States is strong, especially Z52 cars from 2015 onward.
A used Murano suits the buyer who values ride comfort, a quiet, richly trimmed cabin and effortless V6 cruising over sharp handling or towing muscle.

Pre-purchase review
The VQ35 V6 is a proven, long-lived engine, but the Xtronic CVT is the Murano's defining reliability question. Earlier CVTs, particularly around the Z51 era and into early Z52 cars, could overheat or wear if fluid was neglected, leading to shudder, whine or juddering under load. Prefer cars with documented CVT fluid changes and a clean drive with no hesitation or flaring.
Germany and Europe
US Muranos use MPH clusters, US emissions calibration and North American lighting.
Typical work covers headlight adjustment or replacement for the European beam pattern, fitting a rear fog lamp, sometimes side indicators, and verifying the odometer, which reads in miles and may require conversion or documentation.
USCar Trader services
As a buyer based in Germany, you do not have to inspect the vehicle yourself in the United States or Canada. Within the agreed scope, USCar Trader can coordinate document review, a separately commissioned on-site inspection and purchase processing.
Covered inspection points are agreed in advance. An on-site inspection records condition at the appointment and is not a guarantee.
Next step: Before commissioning, USCar Trader and the customer agree which document, history, inspection and transaction checks suit the vehicle and are included in the service. This records what was actually checked.

Import VAT and other taxes or costs are assessed separately under the applicable rules and the circumstances of the individual case. A blanket answer for every vehicle would not be reliable.
The V6 is very durable; the CVT is the item to scrutinise.If expressly commissioned, feasible at the vehicle location and approved by the seller, USCar Trader can arrange a driving assessment to document observable shift quality, shudder, hesitation or driveline noise; service and repair records are reviewed separately.
AWD is optional across the range as an on-demand system. Many US cars are front-wheel drive, so confirm the drivetrain before buying.
Yes, after headlight and rear fog lamp conversion and an odometer check. The individual approval is routine for this model.
2015-2022 Z52 cars in SL or Platinum trim with AWD and full history offer the best blend of equipment, comfort and reliability.
No. We are an independent broker arranging purchase and import of used vehicles, with customs and VAT passed through at cost.
