About the 2017 #nissan Maxima
The cutting edge Maxima exterior starts with a distinctive upscale look that embodies
the latest #nissan design language through its unique combination of a lower profile
and a wide stance, bold front end, #nissan signature V-Motion grille and floating roof
appearance. The lighting features of the Maxima define its presence on the road with
boomerang-style headlights and taillights, LED daytime running lights and two-piece
taillights. Large dual exhaust tailpipe finishers and 18-inch machined-finished
aluminum-alloy wheels (19-inch wheels on the Maxima SR grade) complement the
look. The 2017 Maxima is available in nine exterior colors, including two Maxima-
exclusive exterior colors – Forged Bronze and Coulis Red.
The stunning interior design is anchored by a command central driver’s cockpit that
features optimal reach to all controls and a center stack angled toward the driver.
The Display Commander control, located on the console, allows fingertip control of
the center display. The bespoke-style interior offers genuine stitching on the
instrument panel, doors and console, available LED Interior Accent Lighting, available
Ascot premium leather seating surfaces with diamond-quilted inserts (also available
in Alcantara ® ), unique faceted finishers and a sporty D-shape (flat-bottom) steering
wheel.
In addition, luxury-level interior quietness is enabled by an Active Noise Cancellation
(ANC) system that works much like noise cancelling headphones, helping reduce
unpleasant low-frequency sounds. An Active Sound Enhancement (ASE) system,
which works by enhancing existing engine sound from the 3.5-liter V6 into the cabin
(Bose ® audio equipped models only), is standard on SV, SR and Platinum grades.
The 3.5-liter VQ-series V6 engine applies lessons learned from the legendary Nissan
GT-R, such as sodium-filled valves, to meet needs of the higher compression ratio
and combustion temperatures. With 300 horsepower, it achieves a high specific
output (HP/L) of 85.7 horsepower/liter. Highway fuel economy is rated at 30 miles
per gallon***.
Complementing the 3.5-liter V6 is a performance-oriented Xtronic transmission
featuring a wide ratio range, which allows for strong acceleration from a standing
start and a D-Step shifting logic that provides rapid shifts at high throttle openings.
The refined handling and ride comfort of the Maxima starts with a redesigned
platform (versus the previous generation) that features increased use of high
strength steel and a revised 4-wheel independent suspension with monotube rear
shock absorbers. The sporty Maxima SR grade features unique suspension damper
tuning, a larger front stabilizer bar and 19-inch wheels and tires to add even more
performance.
The 2017 Maxima also offers an extensive range of safety, security and driving aids,
including Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW), Intelligent Cruise Control
(ICC), Forward Emergency Braking (FEB), Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) and Blind
Spot Warning (BSW). These features are standard on Maxima SL, SR and Platinum
grades. Maxima also offers an available Driver Attention Alert (DAA) system****,
which learns each individual driver’s steering patterns and helps alert the driver
when drowsy or inattentive driving is detected (Maxima Platinum only).
The 2017 #nissan Maxima is assembled in Smyrna, Tennessee, with engines
assembled in Decherd, Tennessee.
