Seattle Nissan Dealer, Nissan of Auburn, is pleased to announce the MSRP for the 2011 Nissan Murano, for sale near Seattle this November.  In addition, details were released on enhancements and upgrades for this popular Nissan SUV Crossover.

For 2011, Murano receives a number of significant enhancements, including the addition of a new Murano SV trim level and the addition of the previous optional Premium, Leather, Moonroof and Technology Packages as standard equipment on the Murano SL.

Other refinements range from redesigned front grille, lower fascia and taillights to new 18-inch wheels on S, SV and SL models. Also added is one new exterior color, Graphite Blue, and the available Nissan Navigation System has been enhanced with XM NavTraffic, XM NavWeather (XM subscription required, sold separately), Zagat Survey Restaurant Guide and Streaming Audio via Bluetooth.

Murano is again available in a choice of front-wheel or all-wheel drive. Every 2011 Murano, for sale near Burien, comes equipped with a standard 260-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine and Xtronic CVT transmission.

Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Prices* (MSRP) for the 2011 Nissan Murano include:

Murano S FWD $28,500 USD
Murano SV FWD $31,910 USD
Murano SL FWD $35,450 USD

The second generation Nissan Murano hit Puyallup just two years ago and enters the 2011 model year with a refreshed grille and bumper design, new taillights, a new 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheel design and a number of interior and content refinements – all intended to keep Murano’s visually distinctive styling fresh and exciting. The contemporary exterior design combines with Murano’s “mobile suite” interior, advanced technology and a refined, premium driving feel to create a modern crossover SUV like no other.

Two new models have been added to the 2011 lineup: SV FWD and SV AWD. They join the Murano S FWD, Murano S AWD, Murano SL FWD, Murano SL AWD, Murano LE FWD and Murano LE AWD to provide buyers with a wide range of equipment and features to match any need or budget.

All 2011 Muranos again feature a standard VQ-series 3.5-liter DOHC V6, rated at 260 horsepower and 240 lb-ft of torque, and an advanced Xtronic CVT that provides a sporty and smooth driving experience. Murano is available in front-wheel drive or with an Intuitive All-Wheel Drive system.

The most striking visual element of the 2011 Murano is once again its dramatic body, which imparts a “modern art” feel while still maintaining its distinctive “Murano-ness.” The front end features a bold grille with new, revised design and wide front headlights, a wide hood that sweeps into the bodylines, powerful wheel arches and an aggressive stance with available 20-inch wheels. Murano’s rear end features a unique rear glass shape, integrated rear roof spoiler, large redesigned rear LED taillights and dual exhaust outlets with chrome finishers.

Murano is also offered with an available dual panel power sliding glass moonroof with 2nd row skylight, adding to its open, airy interior feeling. Inside, Murano offers high levels of warmth and luxury – with available wood and aluminum accents, a 60/40 fold-flat rear seat with power return, heated front and rear seats, power liftgate and RearView Monitor. Interior enhancements for 2011 include a new white meter color, new center stack colors and added equipment to various trim levels – driver’s seat with power lumbar support (SV), RearView Monitor (SV), 7.0-inch color monitor (SV), auto dimming rearview mirror with compass and HomeLink Universal Transceiver (SL) and heated steering wheel (SL).

New audio and entertainment features range from the addition of standard iPod connectivity and Bluetooth Hands-free Phone System to SV models to a Bose audio system with nine speakers plus dual subwoofers for SL models. Available technology also includes an advanced touch screen Nissan Navigation System with 9.3GB Music Box hard drive.

Nissan of Auburn, the premier Seattle Nissan dealership, features the updated 2010 Nissan Altima Coupe.

Washington Nissan dealer Nissan of Auburn has models of the 2010 Altima Coupe in stock.  The coupe received many updates for the 2010 model year, including interior and exterior styling and new technology.  The sporty coupe has a smaller body than the sedan models, which helps the Altima appeal to a younger market of buyers.

The 2010 Altima Coupe is available in four well-equipped models: 2.5 S 6MT, 2.5 S CVT, 3.5 SR 6MT and 3.5 SR CVT.  All models received great upgrades, including the base model, which starts affordably at under $23,000.

“Starting with the popular Altima Sedan, which has proven that a practical, high quality sedan doesn’t have to be boring, the Altima Coupe adds a personality all its own – taking the best elements of Altima to new levels of sleek sophistication and exhilarating control,” said Al Castignetti, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division, Nissan North America, Inc. “The enhancements for 2010 are substantial, providing even greater differentiation from the Sedan and upping the entertainment factor of an already terrifically satisfying sporty coupe.”

Nissan Seattle WA

The 2010 Altima Coupe, available now at Nissan Seattle WA dealers, has new exterior features that help increase the styling of the car include an updated design, including a revised hood, grille and front bumper, new headlights and three new color options.

Nissan is taking the Nissan LEAF on tour and it is coming to Seattle.  I don’t think I’ve been this excited for a tour since Pearl Jam announced their last show!

Seattle Nissan lovers (or more like Seattle earth lovers) mark your calendars!  The Nissan LEAF is going on tour and will be in Seattle Nov 12-Nov 14th from 8AM-6PM at Southcenter Mall.  This isn’t for you to simply look at the Nissan LEAF, this will be for you to actually get out and drive the Nissan LEAF.

Purchasing your zero-emission Nissan LEAF will not be like other cars you have purchased in the past.  There is a process that you will go through.

First, you put a $99 deposit down with Nissan USA to reserve your car.  This deposit does not commit you to the Nissan LEAF; it is fully refundable if you change your mind.

The company then does a home assessment and then installation of your charger begins.  (A large part of the fee is refunded.)  You then let Nissan USA know that you will be purchasing your Nissan LEAF from your Seattle area Nissan dealer, Nissan of Auburn.  Nissan of Auburn then orders it and whala; you’re now a Seattle Nissan LEAF owner.

Shipment of the Washington State Nissan LEAF will be here in December.  The reviews from the nationwide media tour of the Nissan LEAF have been excellent.

You can tool around Seattle in the Nissan LEAF and fit 5 comfortably.  The roof is arched and so there is plenty of headroom and the get up and go is incredibly surprising, with 100% instant torque.  A full charge will take you 100 miles. 

Keep in mind, that how many miles you get will vary on your driving conditions.  There will be variations depending on what you have on in the car, etc.  There is an impressive instrument panel that tells you how many miles until you’re juice is gone.  What is so great about this feature, is you push a button and it will give you a map of your vicinity showing you how far you can get on your current charge and where the charging stations in the vicinity. 

So say you’re southbound on the 5, stuck in traffic and you need to find a Nissan charging station in Puyallup.  With a push of the button, it will guide you to the closest one.  It takes about ½ hour to charge 80%. 

In my opinion, we all need to slow down and take a breather.  Stop, grab a cup of coffee while your Nissan LEAF charges in Renton, or wherever you are in Washington or Oregon.

Washington and Oregon are part of a program called the EV Project, conducted by Etec.  The Department of Energy has awarded Etec a grant to install 4,700 charging stations around the country with approximately 2,400 of those charging stations will charge your Nissan LEAF in Washington and Oregon. 

Other states that will be a recipient of these charging stations will be California, Arizona and Tennessee.
Nissan of Auburn is offering the Nissan LEAF at one of the lowest in the nation.  Please contact us immediately for details.  Nissan of Auburn is also offering a shipping credit for those that live outside of Washington State.
