TITAN WINS IN HEAD-TO-HEAD, BED-TO-BED COMPETITION!
For the second time, Nissan came out on top when Popular Mechanics pitted it against the leading full-size pickups. It was the only truck with a push-button locking differential, which is likely one reason the testers called the Titan "best equipped for going off-road" and "best in the dirt." The Titan's engine pumps out a whopping 317 hp and 385 lb-ft of torque that enables you to tow up to 9,500 pounds(3). Add available features like our class-exclusive, 5-channel Utili-track™ tie-down system, a spray-on bedliner and unique bedside lockbox and it's easy to see why the testers felt the Titan has "the most usable bed of the group." To read the full article visit NissanUSA.com/titan/awards. Or visit NissanUSA.com/titan to get all the dirt on the Nissan Titan, Popular Mechanics' favorite full-size truck – from head to bed. |

2009 NISSAN MURANO - The first 2009 mid-sized SUV to receive an IIHS Top Safety Pick!
The all-new Nissan Murano is rated a best overall performer in front, side and rear tests among midsize SUV models. To become a TOP SAFETY PICK, a vehicle must earn the highest rating (“Good”) in all three tests. Performing well in the frontal test is based on a 40-mph frontal offset crash into a deformable barrier. Side testing is based on performance when the side of a vehicle is struck by a barrier moving at 31 mph, rating the effectiveness of standard front and rear head curtain air bags and standard front-seat mounted torso air bags. Rear tests simulate a collision of a stationary vehicle struck in the rear at 20 mph.
2009 MURANO Receives Highest Government Side-Impact Safety Rating!
Murano has received the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA’s) highest rating – 5 stars – for side-impact crash safety.
