Why it stands out
The 2017 Nissan Maxima is often praised for its stylish design, luxurious feel, and impressive performance, earning it a reputation as a "four-door sports car." With a 3.5-liter V6 engine generating 300 horsepower paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), it offers a smooth and engaging driving experience. While it competes with larger sedans—such as the Toyota Avalon—the Maxima's sleek aesthetics and advanced technology make it appealing to buyers looking for both comfort and sportiness. Standard features often include advanced driver-assistance systems and a well-equipped cabin, enhancing its value for those appreciating a blend of luxury and practicality. However, some drivers have noted that it may feel slightly overpriced compared to competitors, and certain desirable features like all-wheel drive are not available. Overall, the 2017 Maxima remains a solid choice for those in the market for a distinctive full-size sedan that offers both comfort and performance.

My 2017 Nissan Maxima SL is the perfect car for me. Coming from a 2008 Infiniti G37 coupe, I still wanted a vehicle that would accommodate both the sports car and practicality. The features are very similar to my G37 but with some update safety and convenience features. My kids love the panoramic sunroof and I love the performance, while my wife loves the extra space. Though I had a look at all the trim levels, the SL got me the best value. The one thing I would say that I would love to experience would be AWD. Other that I love my “new” car!

This one of the best cars on the road. With many different car trims and a sport package, this puts it right up there with other luxury sports cars. Im going to get a white or black one real soon. The features are great as well, like none other

I had a 2010 Nissan Maxima that was totaled after it was hit by two deer. From there I went to a Cadillac CTS. Im excited to be back in a Nissan Maxima. Theres no better car that has the features, power, style, and steering of a Maxima for the price. If you go with a Nissan Maxima you wont be disappointed.
