The New Nissan Elgrand and Murano




Edaran Tan Chong Motor launched two fully imported models from its stable, the Nissan Elgrand and the Nissan Murano, boosting its local distributorship and variety of models officially available in Malaysia.
The Elgrand will have the same 7-seater capability as the previous incarnation, maintaining its signature “Captain Seat” feature in the first and second rows, as well as other luxury features that make a journey in the MPV similar to a first-class flight.

The Elgrand is powered by a 3.5-litre V6 engine, giving out 276hp and 344Nm of torque. Similar to vehicles in this class, Elgrand possesses automatic sliding doors at the rear, dual-zone climate control for the front and rear, a private theatre entertainment system and an “Around View Monitor” for parking.




The 2012 Nissan Murano is in its second generation, spurred by the relative success of the previous iteration. The facelifted model offers a distinct change, featuring a bolder front fascia, rear LED lights, new 18-inch rims, and a redesigned interior.

 
The Murano uses the same engine as the top-range Nissan Teana (albeit with slightly different tuning), giving out 256hp and 336Nm of torque. Power is transferred via Nissan’s Xtronic CVT ‘box with 6 virtual gears.
For Peninsular Malaysia, the Elgrand goes on sale at RM398,342.95 and the Murano for RM330,626.95, while those living in East Malaysia gets the Elgrand for RM396,088.00 and the Murano for RM330,000.00 (exclusive of insurance).

Proton Inspira 2.0 Executive

Most of the kit found on the 2.0 Premium is on the 2.0 Executive – from the steering wheel audio switches and paddle shifters to the auto light and rain sensors, it’s all here. What’s different, based on the feature specifications list, is that the Executive’s seats and door trim finishing is in fabric (as opposed to the Premium’s leather fitment), the wipers don’t feature automatic speed adjustment and the bodykit has been omitted. Fresh to the car is a new 16-inch wheel design. As for exterior colours, there’s no Plum Red for this one, with the Premium’s shade being replaced by Elegant Brown; otherwise, Tranquility Black, Genetic Silver and Solid White are shared by both variants.
