Nissan Maxima
The Nissan Maxima has been through a makeover for 2009. This new generation Maxima offers more fluid lines and a shorter wheelbase. Under the hood, we find a 3.5-litre V6 engine producing more power than the previous generation: 290 horsepower and 261 pounds/foot of torque. Its continuously varying transmission, the only one available, is efficient and promotes fuel-efficiency.
