MT Score

Based on performance, value, MPG, interior space, and more, this score reflects MotorTrend’s exhaustive evaluation process. Scores can only be compared to other cars in the same class. A 7.0 rating represents average performance.
7.6/10

Despite its age, the Maxima has some appeal. Its comfortable, high-quality cabin makes it a nice cruiser, but driving dynamics don’t support its “Four-Door Sports Car” claims. Its safety is as strong as its value is weak.
