That was a claim from Nissan, about the electronic programming of its CVT fitted to the 1st-generation Murano. My only experiences with a CVT were in my mother's 2019 Toyota Yaris, mostly inner-city and with little to no steep hills to find out how the CVT would disturb engine braking. But anyway, as I drove it in a much more conservative way than my mother, I noticed she had to brake more often than I would expect her to do in a similar car with manual transmission.
