Overview Information
The Nissan Maxima has always stood out from the pack of Japanese mid-size sedans. The Maxima's mission is to be the affordable sports sedan from Japan. Unlike the Accord and Camry, the Maxima is only offered with a V-6, as befits its role as Nissan's flagship sedan.
Official Word:
"Our goal in creating the newest Maxima was to remain true to its 'Maxima-ness' -- which we define as the heart and soul of the performance/luxury sedan."
