Nissan Maxima Engine Power & Performance

On top of its smooth and stylish exterior, the Maxima has some teeth when out on the road. It’s equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine that comes paired with the Xtronic CVT® (Continuously Variable Transmission), which not only provides smooth and direct acceleration during performance, but it helps keep the vehicle’s fuel economy at an optimal level because it offers more efficient gear transitions. In terms of output, the Maxima is capable of delivering 300 horsepower and 261 lb-ft of torque.

Nissan Maxima Interior Features & Entertainment

The Maxima interior includes two screens. The Advanced Drive-Assist® Display provides vehicle updates including diagnostics, as well as incoming text messages. The 8-inch Multi-Touch Control Color Monitor is used for access to the media options. This screen includes voice recognition, allowing drivers to use voice commands to access the media options like the AM/FM radio, CD/MP3 player, or even SiriusXM® Satellite Radio, which is offered as a 3-month trial.

The Maxima includes Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™. These systems sync your smartphone with the display screen. They allow you to access your smartphone’s apps, contacts, and libraries from the screen rather than by pulling out your phone and selecting them manually.

Safety & Driver-Assistance Features

The Nissan Maxima includes the Zone Body Construction with Front and Rear Crumple Zones, High-Strength Steel Side-Door Guard Beams, and an Energy-Absorbing Steering Column. These features help protect passengers during collision by absorbing the brunt of the crash so those inside won’t be affected by the force generated during the impact.

The Maxima also includes some driver-assistance features. The Intelligent Forward Collision Warning uses a sensor mounted to the front of the vehicle to detect the likelihood of a collision based on your speed and proximity. The Automatic Emergency Braking will apply enough brake pressure to reduce the speed, but it also gives you enough time to react and stop the vehicle completely.
