Nissan Maxima engine size, specifications

The larger the engine, the more powerful the car, and, as a rule, it is larger. It makes no sense to put a small-capacity engine on a large car, the engine simply cannot cope with its mass, and the opposite is also pointless - to put a large engine on a light car. Therefore, manufacturers are trying to match the motor ... to the price of the car. The more expensive and prestigious the model, the larger the engine on it and the more powerful it is. Budget versions rarely boast a cubic capacity of more than two liters.

Engine displacement is expressed in cubic centimeters or liters. Who is more comfortable.

Engine displacement Nissan Maxima ranges from 2.0 to 3.5 liters.

Nissan Maxima engine power from 140 to 305 hp
