- In this video I review the 2023 Nissan Maxima SR.. Unfortunately, 2023 will be the last model year for the Maxima. It's a great sedan that didn't seem to do too well sales wise - even with it being a great car.. What do you think caused its lack of sales? I have my own opinions which you will see in the video...

Great video. I'm a 56 yr old mechanical engineer that bought one new in 2016. I now have 138,000 miles on it; still pulls like a train. Yes, people are afraid of the CVT-mainly its reliability. Then again, people want to drive cars without maintaining them; you can't do that with a CVT-that fluid must be changed. (BTW-my car has had nearly zero issues since new; then again, I get ALL preventative maintenance done).
Thank you. Preventative maintenance is always your friend
Agree. I miss my 2016 SR. Sold it because I wasn't driving anymore. Thanks Covid.
When would u normally Change the cvt fluid
@@supersmash6058 I've been doing every 60K as recommended by my dealership and the Nissan Maintenance manual. However, the consensus on the internet seems to be 30K. So, if you want, split the difference and do 45K, but never more than 60K. (BTW-150K miles now...good as new!)
I am not an SUV person I personally have a 17 Maxima and this is my 2nd nissan with a cvt. I drive pretty aggressively and I currently have 105.000 miles on my 17. Never had any issues with the car so far. I did do a transmission service at 90,000 MI. I'm very happy with this car and I am a mechanic for Mercedes-Benz for 22 years. I get lots of comments on my car and everyone who rides in it and drives it really enjoys it. I installed Stillen exhaust on the vehicle so it sounds better. Hopefully they come back with the Maxima in a few years
September 2023 traded a 2020 Silverado RST 5.3 engine I bought new in 2020 with lot of engine trouble at 19,000 miles for a new white 2023 Maxima SR. LOVE it and think it sporty, fast enough, comfortable, drives great, rides great and well equipped. I am 72 and remember when front wheel drive was the thing and what people bought to drive in the snow. Was in sales in 1984 and company I worked for got me a new 1985 Maxima station wagon. Right after I got it drove from middle TN to east TN about 300 miles in 22 inches of snow no problem and it was front wheel drive. I loved that car and it was way ahead of its time both in styling, equipment and tech or at least what tech there was. Different job now but still have a work car and don’t get to drive my personal car much but when I do can’t wait to get behind the wheel of the Maxima now and don’t mind the CVT at all. My wife is 23 years younger than me and drives a 2022 Genesis GV70 which she loves but I tell her the Maxima is my mid life crisis vehicle. Only other model I would have considered and think is sporty would have been the Lexus 250 or 300 sport series which are pretty sharp looking. Thanks for the in-depth video great job.
Had a few as rental cars. Spent many hours and miles in them. Definitely love it
Yea, I get it some folks get sold a lemon and can't make lemonade out of it, yet a CVT engine or NOT, if folks would take care of their vehicles like they're supposed to it'll work. I haven't had any major issues with mine, thus far. 🤷♀️ I actually like this Maxima personally.
I'm on my 2nd Maxima now. My first was 1993. I now own a 2022 Maxima, I bought new.
How many miles were on your last Maxima before you got rid of it?
@@703Speed93 Maxima was totaled back in 2003. Had 235k miles on it.
I watch a lot of car review videos and have never seen one with so much detail and info. Amazing job! Amazing video! Good job! Keep it up!
Thank you & I will!
I have a Nissan Maxima sr 2020 and to be honest with y’all. I’m the type of person I really dog my car from times to times. I like driving raw lol And it’s still holding up pretty strong at 40,000 miles bought brand new.
Hell yeah.. I heard one of these ripping yesterday - sounded great from the outside
Nice… but not a bad car at all how everyone be talking 😅
The Altima is no match for the MAX ! The MAX DID NOT NEED to be cancelled it needed a do over after being the same car since 2016 -2023 ! basically ! Start here 360 hp 310 torque AWD Upgrades to 2024 tech new lights new exhaust and a 9 speed basically what is under the new Pathfinder ! 52-55k price points = sold !
Facts, and they could have done something similar in design to the older gens to pay tribute like they did with the 400z looking like the original 240z. Imagine a max with those specs and a lightweight body style like the 4th and 5th gen maximas? It would outsell the new wrx and accord. Missed opportunity from Nissan to send out the max with a bang. This just looks like a bigger Sentra and who wants a car that looks like a Sentra.
Agreed after 8 yrs the Max gave Nissan a lot of converts ! they did not have before we did not want it cancelled we were waiting to be the 1st in line to buy the new one , Maxes and Pathfinders share a lot of mechanicals the 2024 PF with the HO Engine 9 speed AWD would have been a great start and folding mirrors please , cancelling this car was a mistake .@@dravidianking1298
@@dravidianking1298you are very correct the Maxima looks identical to the new Sentra SR midnight edition they have same headlights and grill only difference is the Maxima is bigger and has v6 under they hood AKA its like a beefed up looking Sentra... You right Nissan should have went out with a bang and built a limited inspiration going away model they resembled the 4th and 5th gens retro look but with a 3.7 v6 and quad exhaust and 9speed transmission but limited production to only 2 years factory production build with blue glow up gear shift knob 💪😎
@kmcc I don't know about the current Altima not being a match against the Maxima tho because I hear the platinum VC-Turbo package walks away from the Maxima on take off
My 155mph limited 2020 SR begs to differ ! I dusted a 2023 VC Altima from take off to no longer in my review at will. Some Max's are limited to 135 the others 155 @@cedricmiller4370
I hurry up and buy this car as my 1st dude.
I think the main reason behind bad sales is that the Altima is more fuel efficient, especially the Altima 2.0 VCT
It also offers AWD
Yea you get so many options in the Altima and for a cheaper price tag that people have began overlooking the Maxima no one wants to spend 45k on a Maxima in this inflation crisis
Yeah alot of people are very broke can't even afford a maxima long term or in cash. So they buy something cheaper and more fuel efficient I'm getting one for sure I drove my brother's 2019 maxima and it was fun and comfy
@@Fabian6980that’s why you buy them used with 60,000 miles on them already.
Have a 16 SR purchased new, I’m an aggressive driver and it’s been 8 glorious years of no issues at all. Maintenance is key to trouble free driving.
Love my SR.
Why are they not selling? Today’s man is weak. Women are making the decision on their family vehicle which is a SUV. What’s that? Mini vans are NOT selling either you say? I’m in sales and own this car in SR version. Why did I buy it? A rare car on the road. It’s faster than most cars on the road with 300 hp to get you outta dangerous situations. It comes with a premium Bose stereo (be sure to go to settings and crank up the bass and sub woofer and you’ll be rocking. The interior is beautiful. The CVT is a none issue. Here’s the reality. In real life driving conditions it does not hinder your driving. You will very quickly adapt to its performance. When you are walking up to your Maxima from hitting the hardware store etc you’ll approach its angles and say to yourself wow this car is car is so so nice!
I agree with this whole comment, spot on!
This man is right on! Great to hear like mindedness. It is rare.
Did not know about the business card/pen holder. Thanks!!!
Got mine already! ✔️
I like the triple black and the fogs. Very beefy lookin👍🏻👍🏻
I might hurry and afford this sedan quickly.
Sad to see the Maxima discontinued, but I believe Nissan may bring the name back with a EV in 2025........
Blahhh I’m tired of EV’s
Best sport car 🖤🔥
In the Market for another Vehicle. Out of all the Car Manufacturers for Pre Owned Vehicles it seems that the Altima & Maxima you can get for the best deal. My issue is over the years so many people having issues with their CVTs getting replaced.
I just think there's not enough this has that the altima and sentra don't to make up for the bigger price.
Dope
Thanks Enzo!
The rogue and murano replace it becsuse most people prefer to spenk 40k on compact SUV than a sedan
Yup, it's unfortunate
Mustafa spells like this!
I know it has all the bells n whistles, but $45,000 wow
Co-worker has this same it’s so clean. But I’m not too sure about Nissan. I have a 2018 Camry with a slipping trans 😑, and I don’t wanna have cvt trouble if I go with this..
I'm surprised a newer Toyota already has a slipping trans
The cvt inspight of many “professional” car reviewers who claim it’s terrible is just as reliable or better than Toyota’s auto transmission. I have customers who have 300k on there Nissan cvt in Altima’s. More than a few. If some of these people don’t like something they bad mouth it and perpetuate a lie. Nissan Technician.
I have 3 maximas...a 2009 with 225k on it ...still going strong...a 2018 with 78k and a brand new SR.....I don't best on it a lot and I change the tranny fluid every 35-40k
@@donrandle379 So true, the cvt is a good tranny, love mine.
They should make a maxima se-r 6 speed manual
That would be sweet, but will likely never happen
If they did build a Maxima se-r 6 speed it probably would cost so much money that it be better to just buy a 370nismo instead
Peace bro
The Nissan stopped making the Maxima as a sexy sedan & started making coupes
Premium fuel 🙁WHY?! The only thing that did stop me away from that beautiful Maxima is the CVT. mostly not because it's a CVT alone. then it is Nissan CVT. thank you for reviewing. killing such an iconic name is a bad idea. the right thing they should have taken out the CVT and replaced it with 8-speed transmission and included AWD with the V6 no Turbo. and uses Regular Gas, please.
I totally agree. Its a shame
Old news about Nissan Jatco CVT, do you live in a hole and don't realize those Nissan CVT issues were from 2018-2011 and have been addressed since 2019.........
You don't have to use premium gas in this gen Maxima. It's recommended. Not required.
@@1989pulsarsince when 😂..go ahead 😂
The premium gas is recommended, but not required. It runs just fine without it :)
I think they don't sell well because they are overpriced!
And extremely poor resale value but most of all, unreliable CVT transmission long term.
Agreed........
@@brenttitus2134 cvt in Maxima is fine
@@1989pulsar No it’s not. They are unreliable long term. I can speak from experience having a 2017 Maxima Platinum myself at that time.
@@brenttitus2134So your experience speaks for all other maxima's reliability? Lmao
cvt trans not reliables had to replace mine
How much ?
@@StatiicMods 5grand
Altima killed the maxima literally no point in price difference when you get more space and basically same specs
Well now Nissan is killing the Altima too
Engine is great but not with CVT. This transmision killing this engine. Great review as always. Greetings
Nothing wrong with the cvt in the Maxima.
You have never drove one then.
Do you own one? Have you driven one? Lol
Cvt is BAD!! YES 😢
