The 2016 Nissan Maxima, just like its predecessor, has that menacing at the front. Why wouldn't it be? After all, Nissan's new mid-size luxury sedan is a beast on the road that it could pass as a sports car given its design. Add to that its five-star safety rating and this new Maxima instalment is worth every penny you'll be spending to have it.
The 2016 Nissan Maxima is dramatically styled for car enthusiasts who want a sports car-looking ride but with the features and make of a luxury sedan. Chron even calls it a "modern upscale sports sedan," while Nissan gives it an apt moniker by calling it 4DSC or 4 Door Sports Car.
There is no denying that Nissan's new wheels look astonishing as it is on the inside much like how it is on the outside. After all, its design was inspired by the FA/18 warplane of the U.S. Navy Blue Angels.
The new Maxima comes with a transversely mounted engine, variable transmission and front-wheel drive. Thus, it is still considered a family sedan despite its capacity to give one a sporting driving experience, CarandDriver noted.
The 2016 Nissan Maxima comes in five trim levels — S, SV, SL, SR and Platinum — with each version coming with its own equipment and without freestanding factory options. Although there are five trim levels, all models still come with the same transmission and engine, except for the SR which has manual shifting and steering wheel paddles.
The value of its base model with the S trim level is at $33,235, and the 2016 Maxima comes with a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that is capable of delivering 300 horsepower and 261 pounds-feet of torque. Its mileage is at 22 mpg in the city and 23-26 on the highway.
Aside from its remarkable features and design, the Nissan 2016 Nissan Maxima promises to keep drivers safe having been given a five-star safety rating by the federal government's New Car Assessment Program, Thrasher Backer has learned.
The luxury sedan proved to be a formidable force on the road, but it keeps drivers safe when it comes to frontal crash, side crash and rollover accidents.
The rating comes after Nissan's recall for its Maxima cars in June when the initial units proved to be at risk for fire due to a fuel system issue. A few weeks after the recall of 5,458 Maxima cars, the problem was solved and the sale of the units have since commenced.
