The Edge offers an incredible interior design with high-quality materials. Furthermore, the bodywork is sporty and because of it, the car looks luxurious.

The American carmaker decided to offer three engines for their car. A 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost V4 that produces 245 hp and 275 lb-ft of torque is the entry level unit. The second option is a 3.5-liter V6 rated at 280 hp whereas the third, which is the most powerful is a 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 is good for 315 hp. AWD is standard on the top trim, but it is available for other trims, while a six-speed automatic is spread across the range.

Murano only comes with a 3.5-liter V6, which provides 260 hp and 240 ft-lb of torque. Just like Ford, Nissan also has an AWD, but the transmission is different. Murano is equipped with the Xtronic CVT, unlike its rival.

The interior is also stylishly designed and just like its counterpart, this Japanese vehicle has high-quality materials. The distinction is seen outside and Edge has a much more conservative look, comparing to Nissan.

Dual-zone climate control, 11-speaker Bose sound system and available heated and cooled front seats are offered in both vehicles, but these are only some of the features. Furthermore, Murano has 18-inch wheels just like the Edge, and if you want larger rims, the 20s are an option for both cars.

Both cars are extraordinary, but which one do you like the best?
