Full-size sedans are often sought out for their space, style, and great mileage. You can carry as many passengers as an average-sized SUV, but for a much lower cost to pay at the pump. Modern full-size sedans are tech-savvy as well, and they often offer driver assistance features, along with convenience and comfort assets. Since there are so many full-sized sedans on the market, it can be hard to choose which one has the most to offer. That’s why today, we’re here to talk about the 2021 Nissan Maxima in all its glory.
Nissan’s 2021 Maxima meets all the aforementioned expectations of a full-sized sedan, and more. It comes with 98.5 cubic feet of passenger space and 14.3 cubic feet of trunk space. In addition to this, it has an overall 5-star crash test rating, Navigation, and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility. These are only some of its many highlights. We’re excited to tell you all about the 2021 Nissan Maxima below.

Let’s take a look at the 2021 Nissan Maxima’s overall performance. First, let’s look at the single engine option offered for the Maxima. This midsize sedan has a 3.5L V6 engine that supplies 300 horsepower and 261 lb-ft of torque utilizing an Xtronic CVT. It can get up to 20 miles per gallon in the city and 30 miles per gallon on the highway, with a driving range of up to 540 miles before needing to refuel.
The 2021 Maxima is only available in front-wheel drive, and it includes a driver selectable mode that lets drivers switch between either normal or sport modes. In sport mode, the engine, steering, and transmission will adjust to perform higher. This can affect mileage, but it also causes the Maxima to perform better under certain conditions. However, normal mode is ideal for average driving circumstances. The 2021 Nissan Maxima is great for drivers who need both space and sustainable mileage.
Between tech, entertainment, aesthetic, and comfort, the 2021 Nissan Maxima’s interior goes beyond expectations. Each trim comes with its own unique seating/interior color. The 2021 Maxima SV comes with Charcoal and Cashmere leather options, the 2021 SR Maxima comes with Charcoal Premium Ascot leather, the 2021 Platinum comes with Charcoal and Cashmere Premium Ascot leather, and the 40th Anniversary trim includes Red semi-aniline leather with leather inserts.
These are Zero Gravity seats, meaning that they create a perfect posture position for occupants, creating a more comfortable and safe driving experience. These seats are designed to promote good posture while reducing fatigue. Additionally, the 2021 Maxima comes with a driver’s footrest, manually adjustable front and rear head restraints, and front and center armrests with internal storage.
In addition to comfort and aesthetics, the Maxima offers a variety of tech and entertainment features. These include remote keyless entry, illuminated entry and ignition, a HomeLink garage door transmitter, and a manual tilt and telescoping steering wheel, to name just a few convenience features. The Maxima also has this cool feature called the valet handoff, which makes sure that valet drivers only have access to the Maxima’s Intelligent Key rather than its mechanical key.
In terms of entertainment, the Maxima comes with Bluetooth audio streaming, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, SiriusXM Radio, Advance Audio Features, a WiFi hotspot, aux and USB compatibility, and NissanConnect. The 2021 Nissan Maxima includes an 8-inch touchscreen display, steering wheel controls, and voice activation. These features work together to create a fun, convenient, and comfortable traveling experience.
There’s plenty of safety features on the 2021 Nissan Maxima, including driver assist features and traditional safety assets as well. The 2021 Maxima comes with Nissan’s standard 360 Safety Shield. This suite includes six different technologies like automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, rear automatic braking, rear cross traffic alert, lane departure warning, high beam assist, and blind spot warning. Let's break down what these standard safety features do.
First, automatic braking with pedestrian warning uses sensors to detect pedestrians who may be outside the driver’s viewing field. It sends alerts to the driver, and when the driver does not heed these warnings, this technology applies automatic braking for the driver. Next, rear automatic braking does the same, but it monitors for other vehicles or objects that may be in the way when backing up. Rear cross traffic alert works in conjunction with the rear automatic braking system, but it monitors traffic that may come from the left or right, rather than just what's directly behind your vehicle.
Lane departure and blind spot warnings work to alert the driver of upcoming vehicles when on the road. They provide alerts and automatic steering to avoid dangerous lane switching. Finally, high beam assist lights will automatically dim when there’s an oncoming vehicle, removing the chance of blinding other drivers, which can cause distraction and limited vision.
Now let’s look at the 2021 Maxima’s parking technology. Thanks to the Intelligent Around View Monitor, drivers get front, rear, overhead, and curbside views, assuring that nothing stands the Maxima’s way. These cameras further help reduce potential collisions. In addition to this feature, the Maxima also comes with traffic sign recognition, acting as a second eye, always there to remind drivers of speed limit signs or other important traffic signs they might miss.
The 2021 Nissan Maxima’s tire pressure monitoring system is a prevention feature that notifies drivers when any potential or severe tire issues occur. This can prevent blowouts and flats, and serves as a reminder to air up the car’s tires. Lastly, the Intelligent Driver Alertness feature can monitor the driver’s steering patterns, noticing inconsistencies, and sending an alert suggesting that the driver should take a break.
The 2021 Maxima comes with side impact beams to deflect impact and absorb most of the blow, an airbag occupancy sensor with knee, side, curtain, and dual-stage airbags. This model also includes height-adjustable seatbelts, rear child safety locks, and electronic stability control to reduce traction loss. As a whole, the 2021 Nissan Maxima is a safety-packed sedan.
The 2021 Nissan Maxima’s exterior is customizable, with eight different color options and multiple wheel options. Its exterior color options include two-tone Ruby Slate Gray Pearl, Carnelian Red Tintcoat, Sunset Drift ChromaFlair, Deep Blue Pearl, Super Black, Gun Metallic, and Brilliant Silver Metallic. Notable wheel options include 19-inch gloss black aluminum wheels, which come standard on the SR trim, 19-inch machine-finished aluminum-alloy wheels on the Platinum trim, and the 40th Anniversary trim comes with its very own 19-inch special gloss black wheels.
Additionally, the 40th Anniversary trim comes with its own badging and options for a Premium or Sport rear spoiler. Even the lowest trim comes with optional chrome door handles and chrome side window trim, and a black grille with chrome accents. Lastly, the 2021 Nissan Maxima offers black power and heated side mirrors, which include turn signal indicators. These mirrors fold in electronically as well. Overall, the 2021 Maxima is a sporty sedan with convenient exterior features.
