Comparison Review

Comfort
The Acura ZDX offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Nissan Murano, with comparable head- and legroom. The Nissan Murano will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Acura ZDX.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Acura ZDX will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Nissan Murano, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Acura ZDX is a little narrower than the Nissan Murano, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Acura ZDX, which is slightly longer than the Nissan Murano.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the Acura ZDX is clearly the choice over the Nissan Murano for pulling heavy loads. When it comes to horsepower, the Acura ZDX greatly out-muscles the Nissan Murano.

Powertrain
The Acura ZDX has much lower torque than the Nissan Murano, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Acura ZDX and the Nissan Murano. You'll be able to fit about the same amount of groceries in the Acura ZDX as you will in the Nissan Murano.
