According to official data, in mid-June this year, the Japanese brand Nissan intends to begin assembling a new generation of premium crossover Murano in Russia.
At the same time, the company will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the plant in St. Petersburg, where the third generation of the SUV will actually be assembled. Unfortunately, representatives of the Japanese brand have not yet announced information about the start of sales of the new product in the Russian Federation, its estimated cost and the percentage of localization in the domestic market.
Recall that the third coming of the Murano was officially shown in 2014 as part of the New York Auto Show. In America, the crossover is offered with a 3.5-liter 260-horsepower engine, aggregated by a modern CVT. Whether a similar engine will be presented in Russia is still a mystery, however, as well as other technical characteristics of the car. Currently, the assembly of such models as the Pathfinder, the latest generation X-Trail and Qashqai, as well as the previous generation Murano is being carried out in St. Petersburg.
Since the beginning of April this year, the assembly of cars has been carried out only in one shift, which is associated with a rapid drop in car sales in the territory of the Russian Federation. We also note that a little more than 33 thousand rolled off the assembly line of the St. Petersburg plant last year. car.Nissan
