Overview & Reviews

The 2007 Nissan Maxima receives a few changes this year. A new continuously variable transmission (CVT) is standard, and it replaces both the six-speed manual and five-speed automatic from last year. Nissan has also updated the car's front styling and improved its interior ergonomics a bit. Detail-oriented buyers might also notice that the V6 engine is rated for 10 less horsepower this year, but this is because of the implementation of a new SAE testing procedure. Actual engine performance is unaffected.

• Powerful V6 engine, roomy interior, upscale features, suspension well balanced for both handling and comfort.

  Fun to Drive - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By Very Impressed - September 8 - 12:03 pm

  This car is not only a pleasure to drive, but fun! Nissan does a very nice job of adding excitement when sitting behind the wheel. Really enjoy the acceleration and responsiveness of the handling.

  The best Maxima yet - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By NissanRon - August 20 - 1:46 am

  I just bought my 3rd Nissan Maxima. The 2007 Model is the best yet. The car performs flawlessly and incredibly smooth with the CVT. Once you get used to a CVT, you will never want to go back to a regular automatic. There is no hesitation problem, unlike another Japanese brand. No RPM spiking on transmission shifts, and no snap ring failures requiring a new transmission. (Do I dare mention the 2007 Toyota Camry?) The engine is silky smooth, and has been on Wards 10 Best list since that list was first published. The fuel economy on my 2007 is so far doing better than on my 2002 and 2004 Maximas, which got about 23 mpg overall, and 28 to 29 mpg on road trips.

  Love It! - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By Renee - July 31 - 1:13 am

  There hasnt been any other car out there that has caught my eye until now! I saw this car at a glance when they first came out and had to have it. Its super quick and so comfortable for long trips, everyone has ample space. Trunk is great for shopping excursions. Nice feature, keyless, dont have to have keys in your hand to open any of the doors or trunk. Headlights you can see superclear on dark highways.

  Perfect so far.......... - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By rp65 - July 9 - 10:40 pm

  I bought my Maxima with only 2k miles on it and currently have over 90k without any problems. The only thing I have replaced are the brakes and still have the original tires on it but I wouldnt recommend going that long on them. It has never let me down and I cant say anything bad about it.

  Very dependable, stylish and fun car to own - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By kscommuter - May 10 - 12:13 am

  Bought this car new in Dec 2006 and have enjoyed it every single day Ive had it, and Ive driven it a lot -- 115,000 miles so far and I plan on keeping it easily until it has 300,000+ miles on it. Have always had it serviced at my Nissan dealership religiously; the car has been extremely dependable and very light on the pocket book; only needing brake work and tires replaced as youd expect. Continental ExtremeContact tires are great on this car; they make it ride like new. Besides being a work car, we use this car for all our long trips to visit family (500+ miles each way) and always feel decent at the end of the drive. Last but not least, this car has excellent "get up and go"!

  Excellent Value - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By P2D2KU - April 13 - 5:53 am

  I have owned this vehicle for 5 months. During this time I have driven it 3300 miles. It is a pleasure to drive. The handling is excellent, it also has very good acceleration. It does have a small amount of torque steer which is not surprising for a FWD vehicle with this much HP. At this point I do not have anything negative to say.

  Comfort, luxury and performance - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By jim4649 - March 25 - 5:26 pm

  My 4th Nissan and I absolutely love this car. Smooth, comfortable, quiet ride, good acceleration, great transmission, great brakes, adequate handling, lots of luxury features (try the heated leather seats on a cold winter morning), great stereo and stylish looks. This is fast car. Ive owned a V8 Mustang GT (4.6L, 260hp, 301 torque) and a few Honda sportbikes, so I know what fast is. This is not a sports car but its certainly no slouch.

  GREAT AUTO - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By narf - March 12 - 7:16 pm

  Have owned this auto for almost two years - no problems, oil changes only. I will buy a new one when the 2010 models come out. You cant buy a better made auto for the price. (a friend bought an Accord, paid more and got less - no comparison on handling)

  Beats our old Accord - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By MaskedRider - July 16 - 10:36 pm

  We bought this car to replace a 2000 Honda Accord sedan. Terrible car. The Hondas transmission cratered at 84k, which is NOT what you expect from these manufacturers. It left her and my kids stranded three times with its unreliability. Thanks Honda. This is my wifes car. The one primarily used for kid transport, groceries, errands, and such. Where we live, its 50 miles to Walmart, Our Tahoe has been the trip vehicle. Well, that may change now with this car. We brought the 2007 Accord to the Nissan dealership to compare them side by side, and the Nissan won, hands down. Many more features, better looks, more comfort. Wife loved the car. If Mommas happy...

  CVT Unreal - 2007 Nissan Maxima
  By stoppani - May 16 - 7:00 am

  Had other Maximas before but the 2007 has it all. If youve driven the 2004- 2006 Maxima a test drive in the 2007 will convince you to trade. Incredible acceleration and feel with the CVT. It has it all, looks, power, ability.
