The Murano is more expensive, however it is far more powerful. At the same time, it has comparable gas mileage to the CX-5. Additionally, the max cruising range on the highway for the Nissan is 20% more than the Mazda. That’s more time on the road for that road trip. We feel that Nissan Safety Shield 360 is slightly better than Mazda’s safety system. Lastly, there is far more room for your stuff in the cargo space of the Murano. In the end, the Murano has the edge in our opinion.
