In a world of sport utility vehicles and trucks, there are few sedans that still stand out. The 2019 Nissan Maxima is one of those sedans. It’s been called the 4-door sports sedan, and after spending some time with it, I see why. For starters, lets take a look on the inside. The 2019 Maxima SR model adds the paddle shifters, a Bose audio system and sporty orange stitching around the seats.
Paddle shifters
Available with a premium Bose system, complete with 11 high-performance speakers and Centerpoint, SurroundStage and Active Sound Management technologies. - Nissan/Bose

Around the back are newly designed taillights, Quad exhaust and a black sporty rear spoiler.
Bouncing on 19” rims
Although there are a few changes with the new 2019 Maxima, under the hood, Nissan sticks with the standard 3.5-liter V6 making 300 horsepower and 261 pound-feet of torque, mated to the same CVT transmission and sport-tuned steering, brakes and suspension. Why mess with a good thing?
All in all, the 2019 Nissan Maxima deserves a hard look if you’re looking for a sedan that fits and feels like a sports car, with Safety Tech information systems and head turning curb appeal!
