Intelligent All-Wheel Drive

Nissan Murano Miles Per Gallon Indianapolis INHaving all wheel drive can really help with your peace of mind. The 2020 Nissan Murano treats us to an available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system which provides torque to all four of your wheels. If you want extra traction when driving through snow or rain, you’ll want to upgrade your vehicle with this drivetrain.

What makes this drivetrain especially exciting is that it works to enhance your fuel economy by switching into a front-wheel drive mode when driving on clear roads. While in front-wheel drive, you’ll use less fuel, ensuring that you only use the fuel that you need to achieve the smoothest drive for the situation.


Aerodynamic Design

One of the ways Nissan enhanced the fuel economy of the Murano is through the help of the aerodynamic design of this SUV’s body. This vehicle is built to offer a sleek body that lets wind simply roll right over your vehicle.

By cutting through the air, this SUV doesn’t have to use extra fuel to reach higher speeds while on the highway. Instead, your vehicle can accelerate with ease thanks to the reduced air resistance of your vehicle.


Fuel-Saving Tips

Saving fuel doesn’t just have to be about your vehicle’s performance. Your driving style and regular maintenance play a big part in your performance. Follow these tips to see what you can do to enhance your fuel-saving performance:

  1. Nissan Murano Miles Per Gallon Indianapolis INOne of the most important things to consider when looking to save fuel is to make sure you’re paying attention to how hard you press on the gas. If you go hard on the throttle, you’ll use up more fuel than necessary. If you use your throttle only as much as necessary, you’ll use much less fuel.
  2. When it comes to maintenance, paying attention to your tire pressure will go a long way to saving your fuel. If your tires are low on air, they’ll cause too much resistance, forcing your engine to use more fuel to reach higher speeds. Fill your tires to their recommended pressure to keep your vehicle achieving its ideal fuel economy.
  3. Using your air conditioning uses more fuel than you may expect. That’s why it’s a good idea to try to turn it off when you don’t need it. Instead, if the weather is nice, just roll down the windows to cool the car. This will go a long way towards enhancing your fuel economy.
  4. Finally, you can store a lot of cargo in the back of your SUV, but that extra weight can often force your engine to work harder. That’s why it’s a good idea to take out any extra weight that you don’t need to make sure you aren’t weighing your SUV down unnecessarily.
