About Nissan Maxima
Nissan’s flagship Maxima sedan debuted for the 2014 model year in late August 2013, along with a new S Value Package. This model has HID Xenon headlights with a smoked appearance, a compass in the rearview mirror, a rear spoiler, fog lights, outside mirrors with integrated turn signals, and metallic trim treatment. The Monitor and HID Xenon Packages were no longer available, while the SV came standard with the majority of the Monitor Package.
There were two new exterior colors: Gun Metallic (which replaced Dark Gray) and Midnight Garnet (which replaced Tuscan Sun), for a total of eight exterior colors.The available models were the 3.5 S and 3.5 SV, each powered by a 290 hp (216 kW) 3.5-liter V6 engine mated to an Xtronic CVT. Despite carrying over into 2015 as a 2014 model year, this generation Nissan Maxima was discontinued in 2014. According to Nissan, “they will have plenty of 2014 Nissan Maximas on dealer lots until the all-new 2016 Nissan Maxima arrives” in 2015. (Source: Wiki)
