Thanks to the new 3.5-liter VQ-series V6 engine, the 2016 Nissan Maxima tops WardsAuto’s list of “10 Best Engines” once again. The Maxima’s award marks the 17th Wards 10 Best Engines trophy for Nissan, and is also the company’s 15th award for the same engine – the most awarded engine in the history of the 10 Best Engines list. WardsAuto tested over 30 powertrains under $61,000 this fall in real-life, “field-testing” scenarios: commutes, school, and everyday activities. Horsepower, torque, comparative specs, noise attenuation, fuel economy, and the application of new technology were all factors taken into consideration. The 2016 Maxima features advanced technology such as NissanConnect with navigation (standard), Bose premium audio and SiriusXM (optional), along with AroundView Monitor with Moving Object Detection. There is also an impressive range of safety features available on the new Maxima, including Predictive Forward Collision Warning, Intelligent Cruise Control, Forward Emergency Braking, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Blind Spot Warning and the Driver Attention Alert system.
