Spied: 2009 Nissan Murano

Spy photographers have captured the first images of the next-generation Nissan Murano. While the crossover is schedule to debut at next month's Los Angeles Auto Show, Nissan has done a good job keeping the Murano under wraps and away from our spies' cameras as this is the first time it has ever been spotted.

Technical data remains a mystery, but it is believed that the new Murano will hit showrooms in early 2008 as a 2009 model � which means Nissan will forgo the 2008 model year.

Check back for more details after the Murano's official unveiling later this month.
