27 highway, 21 city, 23 combined: those EPA-estimated mpg figures belong to every 2027 Nissan Murano, so stepping from 20-inch SL wheels to 21-inch Dark Armor or Platinum wheels leaves the estimate unchanged. The Murano's fueleconomy.gov listing also shows 4.3 gallons per 100 miles. Use for comparison only; actual mileage may vary with driving conditions.

That rating already reflects Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, which monitors St. Louis winter roads to help provide traction, plus the VC-Turbo and 9-speed automatic. Eco mode adjusts cruise control, air conditioning and idling stop settings to save fuel, but the Owner's Manual says many driving factors influence its effect, so higher mpg is not guaranteed; in Sport, mpg may drop.

• City: 21 mpg, EPA-estimated
• Highway: 27 mpg, EPA-estimated
• Combined: 23 mpg, EPA-estimated
• Fuel use on fueleconomy.gov runs 4.3 gallons per 100 miles
• 0.34 coefficient of drag, plus standard idle stop/start

18.7 gallons is what the fuel tank holds in every 2027 Nissan Murano, SL through Platinum, and the figure matters because it turns each EPA estimate into range. Nissan recommends regular unleaded gasoline rated at least 87 AKI, so the regular pump handles every fill-up.

On a cold St. Louis morning, the fuel-filler door is the one thing to open: the capless fueling system takes the pump nozzle straight in. The manual sets a 15 percent ceiling on ethanol content, and the information display's Distance to Empty figure estimates how far you can drive before refueling.

• Fuel tank: 18.7 gallons on every grade
• Recommended fuel: unleaded regular, at least 87 AKI
• Capless fueling system, SL through Platinum
• Ethanol ceiling: 15 percent, set by the Owner's Manual
• Estimated Distance to Empty appears on the information display

Start with 430 miles: fueleconomy.gov lists that total range for the 2027 Nissan Murano AWD, the product of 18.7 gallons and an EPA-estimated 23 combined mpg. Credit that figure to fueleconomy.gov, not Nissan, and note its assumption: every gallon gets used before refueling, so plan fill-ups with room to spare.

City and highway math: 18.7 gallons times the EPA-estimated 21 city mpg gives 393 miles; times 27 highway mpg gives 505 miles. Those results are our calculation, not Nissan's or the EPA's, and actual range varies. In I-64 traffic, Distance to Empty calculates from recent fuel economy and fuel remaining, and the result can differ from the miles you get.

• 430-mile total range, per the fueleconomy.gov listing
• Assumption: 100 percent of tank fuel used before refueling
• 393 miles city, calculated: 18.7 gallons times EPA-estimated 21 mpg
• 505 miles highway, calculated: 18.7 gallons times EPA-estimated 27 mpg
