The SV model gains leather upholstery,lumbar support,a Bose audio upgrade,and other cosmetic enhancements.

Sport models are fitted with 19-inch alloy wheels and sport suspension,for starters,while Premium models feature equipment such as rearview cameras,iPod interface,7-inch LCD screen,and more.

The Nissan Maxima is offered with one engine and one transmission. The standard powerplant is 3.5-liter six-cylinder engine that is rated at 290 horsepower. A continuously-variable transmission (CVT) is standard,sending power to the front wheels. The EPA rates the fuel economy of the 2011 Nissan Maxima between 19 mpg city and 26 mpg highway.

Category Definitions

Performance and Design: Taken from the Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) study, this measure is based on owner satisfaction with vehicle Performance, Style, Features and Instrument Panel, and Comfort.

Initial Quality: Taken from the Initial Quality Study (IQS), which looks at owner-reported problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership, this score is based on problems that have caused a complete breakdown or malfunction, or where controls or features may work as designed, but are difficult to use or understand.

Predicted Reliability: Derived from historical trending for a vehicle and/or manufacturer in our Initial Quality and Vehicle Dependability Studies, Predicted Reliability is a forecast of how reliable a newer vehicle might be over time.

Overall Dependability: Taken from the Vehicle Dependability Study (VDS), which looks at owner-reported problems in the first 3 years of new-vehicle ownership, this score is based on problems that have caused a complete breakdown or malfunction of any component, feature, or item (i.e., components that stop working or trim pieces that break or come loose).
