The 2019 Nissan Maxima is the 8th generation of Nissan's esteemed vehicle, retaining its reputation as a premium four-door sport sedan. It comes in five trims: S, SV, SL, SR, and Platinum. Each carries a 3.5-liter V6 engine producing 300 horsepower, paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and front-wheel drive. The SR, being the sportier trim, features paddle shifters and a sport-tuned suspension. The Maxima comes well-equipped with a standard 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and navigation. Key safety features include forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and a driver attention monitor. Notably, the 2019 model received a mild refresh, featuring updated exterior styling and the addition of Nissan Safety Shield 360, a suite of six advanced safety and driver-assist technologies.
