Nissan Murano with 7 Airbags Scores 5 Stars

The Nissan Murano produced in the United States, achieved five stars for Adult Occupant Protection and three stars for Child Occupant Protection. The Murano was tested in 2016 by Latin NCAP reaching only two stars in Adult Occupant Protection and four stars in Child Occupant Protection. At that time Nissan committed to improve the Murano’s performance in the frontal and pole side impact tests. In the latest Latin NCAP tests the Murano (as from production date October 6th 2017) showed good frontal and pole impact performance. The structure in the frontal crash was improved and was rated as stable, showing better dummy and dimensional values than in the previous tests (2016). In the pole impact Nissan improved the model allowing the curtain airbag to properly deploy and granting top safety performance for adults. The difference in results from four to three stars in the Child Occupant Protection is explained by the small variation in the child occupant dynamic test probably due to the change in structural performance in the frontal crash test. The Murano offers 7 airbags and Electronic Stability Control (ESC) as standard equipment.
