Nissan Maxima?

Do you think they will ever make a Nissan Maxima hybrid version? The Maxima's my favorite car, but I always preferred cars with high city/highway mileage.


they will not. first of all it uses the 2.5 engine not the 3.5 like the maxima.. you will probably see a hydrogen car before any other nissan hybrids.. the whole hybrid system is a toyota system. i was told by nissan "higher up" that government

The Order Guide: 2012 Nissan Maxima

Do you remember the commercial where the Nissan 370Z owner finds out he’s going to be a daddy?

He stares at his baby — in this case, the car — before pulling and tugging and stretching the 370Z into a Maxima. It’s a sports car turned sports sedan.

Well, almost. What the commercial doesn’t show is the driveline changing from rear-drive in the 370Z to front-drive in the Max.

Whether a front-drive sedan can also be a sports sedan is up to you.

But irrespective of that, the Maxima offers a decent level of luxury at a relatively attractive price. Standard features include heated seats, power adjustable seats (eight-way for the driver, four-way for the passenger), leather-appointed seating surfaces and, something that’s not often found as standard equipment at any price, let alone for less than $40,000, a heated steering wheel.

The list of appointments is pretty extensive.

The engine is Nissan’s award-winning 3.5-litre VQ V6 engine, rated in this case for 290 horsepower and 261 pound-feet of torque. The only transmission offering is an Xtronic CVT with manual-shift feature.
