Every new model year brings innovations, but the 2025 Nissan Murano has truly made waves with a focused transformation in interior technology. Here at Gates GMC Nissan in North Windham, CT, we have seen firsthand how the Murano’s latest features are reshaping expectations for comfort, ease of use, and customization in a midsize SUV. Below, we take a deep dive into the latest interior technology, breaking down what sets the 2025 Murano apart and, most importantly, how these advancements matter to you.

Dual 12.3-Inch Displays: Command and Convenience in One Look

The centerpiece of the 2025 Murano’s cabin is a pair of high-resolution, 12.3-inch digital screens, one for driver information and the other for infotainment. The left display serves as your fully digital gauge cluster, customizable for speed, navigation, driving aids, and other vital stats. The right-side display keeps your music, navigation, calls, and favorite apps close with touch and voice access. This sharp layout means you can personalize what you see, reducing clutter and minimizing distraction for a more reassuring drive. For those of us who juggle work, errands, and family schedules, this streamlined setup makes daily driving far less stressful and much more engaging.

  • Customizable layouts let you highlight directions, fuel economy, or audio info just a tap away.
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto keep your favorite apps front and center, without cords.
  • Optional head-up display (for upper trims) projects speed and navigation right onto the windshield.

This intuitive technology helps you keep your eyes on the road while keeping all your favorite tools close at hand.

Google Built-In: Smarter, Voice-Activated Experience

Seamless integration with Google built-in raises the bar for hands-free functionality in the Murano. Using Google Assistant, you can effortlessly control navigation, climate, and music with a simple voice command. Picture asking, “Hey Google, find the nearest coffee shop,” or, “Play my podcast,” and the Murano obliges—all while your attention stays on the drive.

  • Streamlined Navigation: Google Maps built in means you get real-time traffic, detours, and personalized route recommendations every time you set out.
  • Personalized Comfort: Adjust cabin climate, select music, and send texts just by asking, reducing the mental load and the number of potential distractions.
  • Constant Sync: Your Google Play apps, contacts, and calendars are ready to go, making each drive an extension of your digital life without added effort.

This is the kind of technology we hear our customers asking for—smart, simple, and genuinely useful for both quick errands and long road trips.

Zero-Gravity Seats and All-Day Cabin Comfort

Nissan takes a science-backed approach with its signature “zero-gravity” seating, inspired by NASA research. These seats are designed to distribute weight evenly and reduce fatigue, especially on extended journeys. You notice the difference not just on family road trips, but commuting through Connecticut traffic too—including our long-time customers who visit regularly for service or upgrades.

  • Front seats come heated as standard across all trims, with available ventilation and massaging features on the Platinum model.
  • Rear seats are shaped for comfort and support, making sure everyone from kids to adult passengers stays relaxed, even after hours on the road.
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control and rear air vents ensure consistent temperature for everyone.

For many of us, comfort is not just a luxury—it’s vital. Customers often mention that these zero-gravity seats noticeably decrease lower back strain, especially on longer rides. It’s a thoughtful touch that reflects Nissan’s attention to real driver needs.

Modern Controls: Wireless Charging, Ambient Lighting, and Haptic Feedback

A comfortable interior experience isn’t just about seats or screens. Advanced haptic touch controls in the Murano’s dash offer tactile feedback similar to your smartphone, which means every button press feels natural and reduces second-guessing. Standard wireless charging keeps your phone powered up without hunting for a cable, a feature that our tech-forward drivers truly appreciate. Additionally, available ambient lighting lets you customize cabin mood for night drives—creating a relaxing “spa-like” environment for yourself and your passengers.

  • ProPILOT Assist pairs with the modern transmission for stress-free adaptive cruise control and gentle lane centering, helping lower driver tension during traffic or highway journeys.
  • Ambient interior lighting, available on some trims, helps reduce eye fatigue and simply makes evening trips more pleasant.
