Comfort
Passengers in the back seat may find themselves a little more cramped in the Nissan Murano than the Subaru Forester.
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 Forester.
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 Nissan Murano is somewhat more expensive than the Subaru Forester.
Dimensions
Since the Nissan Murano is much wider than the Subaru Forester, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging.
For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Nissan Murano, which is slightly longer than the Subaru Forester.
Performance
If you've got something you need to pull, the Nissan Murano will do just as well as the Subaru Forester, since they have about the same towing capacity.
When it comes to horsepower, the Nissan Murano greatly out-muscles the Subaru Forester.
Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Nissan Murano does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Subaru Forester.
Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Nissan Murano and the Subaru Forester.
The Nissan Murano has less cargo space than the Subaru Forester, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
