Maxima SR all the way
great choice
Just brought one same color maxima that is! Traded my 23 Altima in
@@mccormick151428did you have negative equity with the trade in?
Why?
The Maxima will actually come back in 2025 as a new and redesigned fully electric vehicle.😃
Maxima all day everyday. The Altima is just a tool you use. The maxima, you fall in love with
Thanks for watching
Only advantage the altima has is the updated infotainment and tech. Other than that, the maxima is better in almost every way
thanks for commenting
Not true, altimas are much cheaper in buying price, and also they consume much less fuel. For someone who has money it is Maxima all the way, but if money is something to consider then altima is much better
The Altima strikes me of more like a commuter/work car. The Maxima is more like a weekend / road trip car. Just my opinion
thats a great way to put it
This is like comparing the F22 Raptor to the F35 Lightning 2. It’s night and day. Only reason you pick the Altima is cause you can’t afford the Maxima. If you can afford both no way you go small. The maxima is basically a front wheel drive Infiniti. I’ve had both models. And got a Sentra SV now. After accidents took my maxima out. Maxima would such a joy to drive. The Altima kept me wanting more.
thanks for watching
I've owned both an Altima and a Maxima and lemme say, if you can afford it, go with the Maxima. The Altima is a car you use, the Maxima is a car you love. I have an Altima now because of the higher mpg but my issue is the mpg isn't high enough to satisfy the power loss. Maxima averaged almost 30 mpg, Altima averages almost 33 mpg and I'd much rather have the extra umph of the V6 for that gas cost.
thanks for commenting the maxima is certainly a beautiful car I just cant justify the spending
The AWD in the Altima is the biggest factor for people up north
Your Altima must be pretty old. 2022 and 2023 models get 37-39 hwy, some ppl up to 40. If you're talking combined MPG, never heard of a Maxima getting 30 combined.
@@user-ik8fl2xr5tUS North East it's barely popular. SUV all the way, unfortunately.
Thank you for this.
The Maxima 100%.... ❤ I hate that Nissan is stopping production of the v6 Maxima. Very disappointing to hear. I have a 2017 Maxima and I am going to buy a new 2023 Maxima.
RIP such a shame
i’m glad you did this. Nissan definitely dropped the ball with the Maxima always been a beautiful capable car.

Maxima looks have always been revolutionary. Styling stands out. It doesn't blend in with all the other cars on the road. Sad to see it go.
it is a real shame
The Maxima will be missed. But the Altima has been improving over the years
it certainly has
Still a cvt
Altima drives nothing like Maxima
A lot of cars are transitioning to cvts and people stay stuck in their own ways
@@ChiTownGhost913There are good reasons as to why CVTs are something to be weary of. I don’t know if the 2023 CVTs are the same as the 2013 CVTs but they are very prone to giving in unless babied.
Depends on what you want out of your car, but I'll say this (since I had both cars; '07 Altima SE with 170K miles, now a "16 Maxima SV with 134K miles). I also happen to be a Mechanical Engineer, but you don't need to be one to figure this out:
Altima=flimsy (even with the 3.5; it was fast, but not premium-feeling; thinner/lighter-weight components used, esp. in the suspension). I wanted quick and cheap, and that's what I got. But I loved it, and it served its purpose.
Maxima-=solid and premium (the way it floats over the road and its bumps with authority); this car pulls like a train; seems faster than the Altima even though they had the same engine (comparing those 2 years). Commands respect on the road. One of the best cars I've had (I'm 56 yrs old, BTW).
wow great input thanks so much for sharing
You got to remember that 3.5 VQ engine in the maxima has been around for a long time and is tried-and-true.
ive seen some with a crazy amount of miles
Tried and true...why are engines falling apart these days?
@@_ballermy 2018 is up to 140k, not a single problem so far. Idk what you been looking at
I bought the Maxima 2010 and drove it until now. True and tested hands down. And thats why i am now owner of the 2023 Nissan Maxima again. I will honor the final years of this model for sure
Facts my g35 Is at 280,000
Máxima all the way
thanks for watching
Maxima always my friend that car is so underrated.
thanks for watching
I had the Altima SR "turbo" amazing mid-size car and the turbo is pissa-fast for that size. Very suprising. But, it's light and great for the older folk or girls. Excellent gas milage is also a huge plus. I also have the Maxima 2023 SR. Sorry, NO comparison, best car I've ever owned, it's fast, hugs the road well, because of it's weight, and quite luxurious! I love driving the Maxima...hope Nissan makes a smart hybrid of both. You can do it Nissan, you can do it! 😉. Great reviews brother!
thanks so much for watching my friend. Hybrid would be awesome!!!
I had a Altima and maxima the Maxima all day long it’s no contest
you have had both Judah?
Maxima I've had 3 and love them my wife had the Altima big difference interior quality the Maxima is better put together.
thanks for watching
Did you have any trouble with the reliability?
It no comparison the Maxima is better than the Altima
JUDAHHHH welcome to the comments! glad to have you
Maxima, still used CD's when other car manufacturers stopped. It blended old school technology with new school technology. Call me crazy but that's what had me from day one.
whats your favorite cd
Nice review👍maxima's superior ride quality and handling all day,sorry to see this legendary sedan put out to pasture .😪
thanks for watching
Great video.......excellent comparison of the two vehicles...choices nicely laid out....
thanks for watching
I’ve always bought maxima I have the exact maxima sr same style and color
thats awesome thanks for watching
I am getting the Altima! Thank you so much for doing this video🙏🙏
glad i could help
Maxima Maxima Maxima.. gota go with there Top of the line flagship ❤
great choice
I have had a mess of Maximas since '93. I own a '19 Max and I am happy with it. Nissan put more energy in the Altima and I will think it over.
thanks for watching
Maxima all the wayyyy
great choice
Great review. I have a '19 Altima (no-turbo 2.5L) which has been great, but the Maxima still catches my eye. Suggestion, please delete or turn down the volume on the background music. The commercials were a relief from that unnecessary music. Still, a thorough & informative review.
thanks for watching
I got the Altima in Platinum trim and I love it.
thats awesome congrats!
Maxima is my car
great choice
Maxima 💪! Like that V-6 power! 👏
great choice
Might as well go with the maxima!
lots of people going that route
Maxima looks more mature and better plus v6 baby
thanks for commenting
@@carsunlocked how many miles did u chsnge your transmission fluid
Good review & great Nissan.
thanks for watching
Altima is nice but Maxima is better, in everything, I dont know why it is going to be gone
Got the Maxima SR 💪🏽
great choice congrats
Maxima SR all day!!!! i like my power
raw power baby
Just recently purchased the 2021 maxima sr. Absolutely love it. Very comfortable, enough power for me. Second maxima I've had and third one with the 3.5. Very reliable
thanks for watching
Im sad the company won’t build Maxima’s anymore. I love them! I have a 2021 Maxima Platinum.
thats awesome thanks for watching
Thank you now I know what am going with altima
glad our video helped you
Altima drives very, very smooth. I rent it alot. Good zip. Maxima..I rented that too. It's pretty good too.
thanks for watching
I agree with your choice 185 Hp and AWD less gas consumption Altima is preferred
thanks for watching
I really liked this video, but I choose the Máxima I had Máxima 07, 10 and I currently have the 17. Máxima's lover
thanks for watching glad you found the videos helpful
V6 anytime over a 4 banger.
thank you so much for the comments
Maxima all the way.. idk the difference between sr I have a platinum and it’s so smooth and when you put on sports mode omg.. she take off!!!. I love it.
thanks so much for watching
Maxima no doubt
thanks for commenting
I would easily pick the Maxima just for the V6 alone. V6 > 4-cylinder turbo. I had a V6 then a turbo 4 & now back to a V6 in my current car (2016 Lexus GS350 F-Sport) much smoother power delivery & much better sound.
thanks for watching!!
Smart guy!
I’ve got a 2017 Nissan Maxima SL and it drives great, even in 2024 . I’m bout to trade my car in for a 2023 SR, I just think the Maxima always stands out and you’ll be getting compliments on your car everyday. And tbh they drive good , it’s not gonna out drive a hellcat but it isn’t slow by any means necessary
thanks so much for watching
Thank you!
You're welcome!
I have the 2019 SL awd and love it, 31 mpg, sunroof, heated seats and steering wheel...🚘
Thanks for watching!
@@carsunlocked Great job buy u as always 👏 🚘
I totally disagree about the Altima being the better car. AWD is nothing special. It doesn’t give you better safety, scientifically it only helps when moving forward from a stop, but good snow tires can help you do that in a FWD car.
Also, since Nissan is discontinuing the Max, it’s been not given any good updates since it’s debut in 2016 except for adding the pano roof to the SR package and sone other minor additions.
The Maxima is a legacy, a staple of Nissan’s North American heritage, and a vehicle that Nissan enthusiasts will miss terribly. Despite its inconsistent CVT, the majority of the Maxima hallmarks are solid.
Personally, if Nissan switched from their subsidiary Jaco who builds their CVTs to using the new 9-speed ZF transmission now launched in the Pathfinder, I think Maxima could have made it even longer challenging the Lexus ES, Toyota Camry, and prob the V6 Dodge Charger.
Having owned a 2017 Maxima SR and migrated to the Lexus ES, I miss the sporty car experience and thrill of the ride. Now I feel like an old man driving a dad car with zero thrill just a soft boring yet reliable vehicle.
I still miss the Max and occasionally find myself drawn to these videos replaying the fun I had just a few years ago!
thanks for watching
The Maxima did not need cancelling its been the same since 2016 it needed updating , more tech , better screens, 360 hp 305 torque awd 9 speed or basically what the 2024 Pathfinder is now with blacked out styling and lighting up grades 50-54k price point = hotcakes on a cold morning .
Your right
It is the economy and money saving preferences including gas consumption that determined where the emphasis was going to be placed...The Maxima was inevitably going to morph into something like the Altima, except the Altima was already there, so they just had to beef up the technology. I grudgingly say it was a smart business decision....except for the CVT stigma hanging in the air....I am simply not sure. At least not as yet............
@@fazilm1 Maxima's destroys Altimas and Accords all day long . The cvt is great just like geared transmissions it not maintained they break
Love Maximas. All Nissan had to do was improve on it and take out the CVT and this car sells easily. It’s too good looking
Nissan has Infiniti also. So if they upgraded the Maxima, it would be in competition with the lower level Infiniti's. I wouldn't care. Give me a 350hp AWD Maxima all day! I'm mad their discontinuing it.
The Maxima is 🔥
you now it
The maxima should awd and an 8 speed. That'll be amazing, and the maxima will live longer. Who agrees?
they wouldnt make a whole new transmission just for one car
Nope I'd choose the maxima Sr. My mother just bought one. Drives like a dream
thanks for watching
Maxima... my car and the one I favor the most ❤
thanks for watching!
I like how bro pulled out the 23 Altima in the 24 body that had that weird facelift 😂 the 24 altimas and Sentras with the weird facelift no longer have foglights
here in canada the packages might be slightly different
Maxima all day!
great choice
So I’m still deciding on getting the maxima or Altima. But even though the maxima is my dream car nothing really change with the maxima it’s still the same interior and everything. The newer Altima’s change from the older model and that’s what I like. If I were to purchase something I would get something different and plus the maxima is overrated. So what advice can y’all give to me ?
How important is awd when driving on snow? Would driving a fwd vehicle like the maxima be impossible on the snow?
no not at all a good set of snow tires goes a long way
The MAXIMA all day long
thanks for commenting
It's not a sunroof in the Maxima it's the panoramic ❤
sorry sir
MAXIMA, they should incorp. the sleek sexy look of the max into the altima.....the look is what caught my eye.
Thanks for the input my friend
What are very good winter tires for the maxima?
michelin x ice
AWD and better mpg is a win for me. The additional space is the icing on the cake
glad we agree
Awd increases gas mileage and the 4cy lwill have you over revving it to catch up with traffic eliminating any savings. Trust me, my last car was a 4cyl. Honda Accord. My new Maxima 300 hp matted with its gas saving CVT gives me the same gas mileage. This isn’t rocket science, imagine a 4cyl over revving to keep up, then imagine a 300 HP V6 with lower revs going about its business.
I have maxima 2000...i love it. Maxima is very good car.
thanks for watching
The 2014 Altima SV wheels😂
for the snow tires
I was EXACTLY in between these two. And at the end, the interior sold me on the Altima. Exact same colors and 2.0. Also the price 🥲
thats awesome congrats on your new vehicle
Great choice honestly, Nissan been killing the maxima anyway and it got the same interior since 2017, the only thing it got over the altima is power but then again its not an AWD/RWD 10 speed so its not worth considering imo
That Altima got the same wheels from the 2015 Altima sv package
its for the snow tires
I think the maxima i have a 2011 nossan maxima and im seriously thinking of getting a car note on the next gen maxima
great choice
I thought they were discontinuing the Maxima
Good vid. Wish the Maxima price was a lil lower. Used maybe?
thanks for watching I am sure the resale value for used will hold now that Nissan is no longer making them
Comparing the 2.0t would make more sense imo
here in canada there is no turbo
Máxima 😍
great choice
the 2023 Nissan Altima VC-Turbo is a great choice as well if you want more power, tech, gas mileage!
I wish I had that in Canada
Say no to little engines with turbos if you like your engines to last longer with less repairs. Although , I’m sure the dealership will love seeing you all the time.
Get the Altima SR with the Vac Turbo .. It will not disappoint ..
Nonetheless I appreciate that your videos keep getting better ... KEEP IT UP !!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐
hey we trying our here my friend thanks for watching!
Why didn't you review it with the Altima turbo platform ?
its not available here in canada
@carsunlocked oh wow you really replied that's awesome but dang I didn't know brother. I'm actually looking at getting the Turbo Altima this weekend looks pretty nice and fun and comes with the star shaped style wheels looks better than the black ones.
I have the nissan altima 3.5sr
Wish they would have put the 3.5 back in the altima.
yes that is certainly an awesome power plan
If price wasn't an issue for me I would take the Maxima, the only thing I like better about the Altima is the AWD. I will be smart and buy a Subaru.
smart?
@@carsunlockedI have had 8 Nissans since 1994 with my last being a 2013, I have had 3 Subaru cars and when my lease ends I will probably get a 4th. I didn't dislike any of my Nissan's except a 2006 Altima and a 2008 Rogue, both were bought used from a Nissan dealer, I loved my 2002 Xterra but it's my local dealer and the way they do business that made me look elsewhere. I enjoyed my 2016 Crosstrek but it's lack of power made me get an Outback it had good power but was too big for my liking so I got a 2021 Crosstrek, and now they offer a more powerful Crosstrek and that might be my next car. Subaru has the best AWD and I live in a 4 seasons state so I like AWD.
Got to have the power the maxima no altima
its all about powerrrr
I want that maxima 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
dont we all
Altima SR for my liking 👌
great choice
Altima should have a sport version better than the vc turbo. Nissan makes great sports cars. Z and gtr. Imagine getting something more platinum in the altima. I compare Altima to the k5. So lets get better head lights and tail. Lets get a dual moonroof. Interior we need ambient lights, ventilation seats, and a better screen as well as the ac controls. Finally under the hood. Lets get 350 hp on the Altima!!!! Awd i promise you guys this car would be amazing. But im going to trade my altima for the arteon
yes sir your certainly correct
The car you’re describing is the Maxima.
Maxima SR
great choice
Which one is longer?
maxima
Has cvts gotten better? I heard nissan cvts last only 30k miles idk if they revised the transmissions or not, i see alot of altimas lately so idk lol
You forgot to add that the Altima has the option for the 2.0 VC turbo motor which actually makes more torque than a 3.5 V6 just a little bit less horsepower.
yes here in Canada there is only the 4 cylinder option
@carsunlocked VC turbo is 2 0 liter 4cyl sir lol. Did you mean only the 2.5 4cyl?
I haven’t seen the new Altima but my boyfriend has the 2023 maxima. That car has no headroom in my opinion. And unfortunately I can’t drive with the driver’s seat all the way into the trunk. I’m 5’10 and he is 6ft4.
really im 5 9 and the maxima I have never had a problem with head room
I have both but nothing is better than the maxima its the ultimate... sad that didn't make a 2024 hopefully good sense prevail and 2025 is for sure maximum maxima all the way in banana 🍌 yellow and burgundy please 👍
thanks for watching!
I pick the maxima but where I stay it doesn't snow
great choice
You should compare the Altima with turbo engine
unfortunately the turbo is not available in canada
I’ve got a 2021 Altima I got new. It’s pretty bad, already having cvt and engine problems at 70k miles. I had a 1992 Stanza that had 400k miles on it with original engine and 5 speed transmission. I wish I would’ve not let the Stanza go
Both great cars, but maybe I like the Maxima a bit better. I hope you guys were able to stay warm during this shooting.😂
thanks for commenting its getting chilly out there
Do you live it 10k more better and if the altima didn't have swd but the vc turbo it souks be 8k difference but just as fast as the maxima

what doesnt make sense to me is why they call the maxima a full size sedan but the altima is midsize
they call the maxima a four door sports car

@@carsunlocked no one’s buying them now (insider 😂).. even though they offer more horsepower?
Yep, for the all-wheel drive, safety features, good engine and gas mileage and 10K less, the Altima is the clear winner. 😃

i gotta agree with you here stephen

The Maxima is the more solid ride. And this Altima is not the VC-T.
not its not
