Tan Chong taking orders for new Murano

The second-generation Murano, which recently made its Asian premiere at the Singapore Motorshow 2008 last month, elevated its unique position in the marketplace through a "super-evolution" of the original design.

The previous generation Nissan Murano enjoyed tremendous success when it was launched in 2005 and became the best-selling large-size SUV the following year.

"The recent slew of new model launches like the Qashqai and Teana in August has resulted in a gain in sales momentum by up to 50 percent from month to month," said Mr Ron Lim, General Manager of Tan Chong Motor Sales Pte Ltd. "We are confident that this new generation Murano will also do well given its strong following. Overall there are only two words to describe the new Murano – SOPHISTICATION & LUXURY. Many who have seen it so far have even dubbed it the 'BLACK LABEL' of SUVs!"

The new generation Nissan Murano features new exterior and interior designs, enhanced technology and a new premium driving feel. The new Murano is available with a refined VQ-series 3.5-litre DOHC V6 engine and is already in town. The fact that it is available just weeks after its launch in Japan at the end of September is evidence of Nissan's confidence of the new Murano's success in Singapore.
