Comfort
Passengers in the back seat may find themselves a little more cramped in the Nissan Murano than the Subaru Ascent.
The Nissan Murano will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Subaru Ascent.
Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Nissan Murano as you will with the Subaru Ascent, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.
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). When looking only at MSRP, the Nissan Murano will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Subaru Ascent.
Dimensions
Since the Nissan Murano is much wider than the Subaru Ascent, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging.
The Nissan Murano is slightly shorter than the Subaru Ascent, which may make it easier to park.
Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the Subaru Ascent is clearly the choice over the Nissan Murano for pulling heavy loads.
The Nissan Murano has a little less horsepower than the Subaru Ascent.
Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Nissan Murano doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Subaru Ascent.
Utility
The Nissan Murano has less seating than the Subaru Ascent, making the Subaru Ascent the better choice, if you need to chauffeur many passengers.
The Nissan Murano has less cargo space than the Subaru Ascent, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
