Nissan calls the Maxima The 4-Door Sports Car. The 290-horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6 engine that propels the 2011 Nissan Maxima is extremely smooth, and it allows relaxed acceleration in normal driving with the automatic continuously variable automatic transmission.

The Maxima stays true to its name and offers a tremendous list of standard features and available tech features. The list of options in the Maxima doesnt disappoint either, as it includes such comforts as a heated steering wheel and cooled front seats.
