2014 Nissan Maxima Owners Manual Guide Pdf - Back in 1990, the Nissan Maxima is ideally positioned as a bridge between the family sedan middle and out-of-reach European sport sedan thanks to a powerful V6, luxury interiors and attractive "Four-Door Sports Car" marketing tagline. These characteristics, along with the continuous improvement of the Nissan, Maxima ensure a loyal following and strong name recognition.

Since then, others have targeted niche car Maxima and well brought out competing models. The previous-generation Maxima, in particular, have little to offer to justify the extra price. Current generation of Maxima, however, is another attractive option for a sedan that provides performance and luxury.

Two trim levels are offered for this generation: SE and SL. With a slightly stiffer suspension, the SE is the sporty of the two. Standard features include 18-inch wheels, eight-speaker CD stereo, keyless entry and one-touch up-down front windows. The more luxury-oriented SL offers 17-inch alloy wheels, tuning soft, wood interior trim, heated leather seats, HID headlights and a 320-watt audio system Bose.

Minimal changes throughout the model run, so the interested buyer does not need to be glued in any given year. There is a change in the transmission, however. Maximas from 2007 and 2008 featuring CVT, while the previous model comes with either a five-speed automatic transmission or six-speed manual. Previous Nissan CVTs are disappointing, but the Maxima CVT works pretty well. V6 offered by newer models in this generation boasts 255 hp, while the older models were higher ranking list (265). This is the result of a new power rating procedures enacted in 2007. Engine performance is virtually unchanged.
