Nissan Maxima

Nissan’s Maxima flagship sedan arrives for the 2007 model year with new headlights and front fog lights, revised front and rear fascias, a new grille that sits below a restyled hood, and new 17- and 18-inch wheel options. The interior is accented by an updated instrument panel, revised gauges, and improved seat bolsters. Features include rear park assist, a SkyView glass roof, a 320-watt Bose sound system with an MP3 player and a six-disc CD changer, and Bluetooth connectivity. Both models, the 3.5 SE and the 3.5 SL, will come standard with front-side and side-curtain airbags, and among the points that differentiate the premium 3.5 SL are leather upholstery, power heated front seats, and wood interior trim. At the heart of the 2007 Nissan Maxima is an aluminum 3.5-liter V6 rated to make 255 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 252 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,400 rpm, connected to a continuously variable automatic transmission with a manual mode that will direct power to the front wheels.
