Review: 2019 Nissan Maxima Platinum - V6 Power and Plush Luxury!

I review the refreshed 2019 Nissan Maxima in its top-of-the-line Platinum trim! It has nice features like a plush interior and V6 engine, but it's still held back by being front-wheel-drive only and offering only a CVT automatic transmission. What do you think of the Maxima? Thanks to Nissan for providing this vehicle to review!

All the people who complain about CVT are either never owned any car with it or never drove. I have been consistent with my opinion. The best thing about this gen Maxima is its CVT and engine combo. And l trust me I know my stuff. I have driven and kept from Manual Saabs , Audi RS and BMW's. This car is a gem and treat to drive. In this price I have not been able to beat Maxima. I owned 2015 Murano and it was Ok. It got the job done. But never had any issues with CVT. Then bought 2017 Maxima SR and loved it. Then bought 2018 Rogue SL Platinum for wife and she loves it and she moved from her Rav4. And now I have traded my 2017 Maxima and bought a 2019 Maxima SR. And never once I had any issues or complain with any of these cars or CVT's. I don't get who are those people who just bitch and complain?

[@evanganske9240]

I own a 2004 Maxima SL with the 4 speed auto and it has almost 245K miles on it. It has been a fantastic car. I also own a 2009 Genesis with a 4.6 V8. I haven't had a chance to test out newer Maximas with a CVT, but I have driven a Subaru Outback 2.5 with the CVT and really didn't mind it at all. One thing I don't like at all, however, is the fake shifts. They make the VQ sound like a mooing, groaning cow. Hyundai/Kia have a CVT in their Forte (soon to be put into the Elantra as well) and it does a much better job at simulating shifts with real rpm ratios instead of just droning over and over again like a broken record by dropping the rpm by 500 every time it hits redline.

[@javierfdc1218]

Funny things is that people don’t understand that the Maxima pulls on most cars out there people just don’t know it yet 😂 I have a 2013 Maxima tuned with 110k miles and the CVT handles just fine. Haters gonna hate

[@incognito6469]

You don't drive your vehicles long enough to know real world reliability. I know 2 people that had the CVT in their Maximas crap out at about 100k miles. Needed replaced. They were NOT happy.

[@_LEONKING_]

@@incognito6469 my 2012 CVT Altima went through 2 accidents, and I got it when I was like 17 years old and I loved beating on that car because it's very light and easy to throw around corners, never had an issue with the transmission. It now has 76k miles and the only thing I've done to the car is transmission oild changes when the car needs it. I have a huge feeling that people who had their transmissions go out simply have no idea about car maintenance in general so they don't know how to take care of their cars.

Lol I love it!!! I have been to multiple videos for the Nissan Maxima 2017-2019. And every single time once they test they test drive, that person smiles if not in pure satisfaction during driving. Sure the Avalon is larger, but no other car in its class is as enjoyable as the Maxima. If you want a car where the driver is very comfortable in space / surroundings, and with amazing speed Nissan Maxima is for you. I rarely have passengers so the smaller backseats are just fine. What is rarely spoken of is the comfort of the armrest! When you sit into a newer Maxima the armrest are perfect! Both of your elbows sit perfectly, very comfortable. This isn't a vehicle for a full family. This is a vehicle to enjoy!

[@SexualChocolate696]

Yes it is..a family of 5

[@MrNemo721]

I rented one recently. I can't believe I'm saying this but the CVT is actually decent, more so because the engine is potent. Comfortable highway cruiser but no sports sedan with all that weight, understeer and dead steering feel. 4DSC it's definitely not. An AWD system might help but they won't do it because it would encroach on Infiniti.

[@kksan]

Also rent one earlier this year, didn't notice that it has a CVT until I check the specs later online.

Nissan's marketing strategy is pretty clear across several of its models; the Maxima, Altima, Rogue, and the Murano, for example. It focuses on offering especially appealing interior appointments including very comfortable seats and upscale materials, smooth and linear power delivery and stylish overall looks. As Matt says, the Maxima is a very comfortable cruiser. As such, it's aimed at its intended market. Where it is NOT aimed is at an "enthusiast" market. But there are far more non-enthusiast drivers out there, especially among purchasers of four door non-sport sedans. And while Toyota seems to be aiming at reducing the average age of its Avalon customers or at least responding to the "sixty is the new forty" market sub-segment, Nissan is content to let the Maxima continue to grab a portion of the shrinking sedan segment with aging boomers. All in all, the Maxima seems to suffer from neglect by Nissan. They could have added AWD to give it a bit of trendy market appeal but they've chosen not to bother.

[@Natethegreat200c]

I forgot you do the week reviews. With all the auto show videos it’s glad to know we have reviewers like matt that keeps the car VS most people that keep it a few hours.

[@enthused7591]

The point you made about turbocharged cars isn't really accurate. People just need to understand how motors work. A 2018 Silverado 1500 6.2 is rated at 420 horse and 460 torque and will get 17 city and 21 highway, but if you drive it like a racecar, it'll get 8 in the city. Small 4 cylinder turbocharged cars are phenomenally fuel-efficient if you drive them out of boost, meaning intentionally taking it easy around town. Like a big powerful V8 with an 8 speed trans, your vehicle is capable of EITHER power OR economy. Not both at the same time. a 1.6 turbo 4 cylinder in a 3,000 lb car can easily return 32mpg city and 38 mpg highway OR it can thrill you with close to 200 horsepower and 200 torque. Nobody should be complaining when they temporarily get 20mpg when thrashing a fun car that actually gets up and goes.

We bought last years Maxima which is pretty loaded with the SR rear spoiler & rims, it's a fantastic highway cruiser which is very comfortable with surprisingly good mpg overall.

[@Landitty]

Matt, you didn't get the full experience trust me! I have a 2016 Maxima SR with Bridgestone Potenza Pole Position Summer Tires...the SR model w/ great tires handles much better and has nice HUGE paddle shifters! And they work better than most cars in the segment, and are the best of any CVT car. Instant downshifts and holds onto gears as long as you want. Also you have to use downshifting in corners and use the high revs to get maximum handling out of this car, downshifts make the the car brake and corner DRAMATICALLY better. There are many reasons would say this is the best V6 powered, front wheel drive sedan.

[@bmillz5.054]

I have a 2017 Mustang GT, we just bought a 2017 Maxima and the transmission is great!!

[@revnto7k]

I used to own a Maxima, a 2002 SE 6 speed, and my folks owned a 2000 automatic. They were great cars. Too bad it's not a VQ35/6MT combo. Might be worth looking at.

[@saxopio6280]

The Altima is actually larger than the Maxima. At 192.9 overall length, the Altima beats out the Maxima by 0.1 inches. However, the wheelbase is where the Altima really wins out: 111.2 compared to 109.3 for the Maxima. Nissan wants the Maxima to be that 4-door sports sedan so they made it smaller to emphasis performance over interior space. Despite the CVT and FWD characteristics, I'd say Nissan was mostly successful. It does have sporty driving dynamics vs. say, an Avalon.

I think a hybrid version that doesn't use premium fuel would be a nice edition to the SV, SL, and Platinum R trims

[@mauricemotors8207]

There is no Hybrid maxima

[@joetaylor4096]

Yay! Asmucha s I don't want to like modern Nissan vehicles, this ones not too bad.

[@charlesgroover9646]

Maxima fan for 31 years have owned 2 , 2001 and 1996. This maxima sucks honestly CVT and only 300 hp in 2019. Should have about 400 hp with manual or 8 speed auto. F u CVT !!! Matt u da man though 👍

[@NileshR12]

Charles Groover It doesn't need 400 HP, that's excessive to the point where you wouldn't even be able to take advantage of it anyways

[@charlesgroover9646]

NileshR12 ok 350hp with all wheel dr.

[@charlesgroover9646]

Stevorn Richards ok 350 with allwheel dr

[@ax5engineering950]

Not sure about 400hp, but I agree with you on those other points. I own a 2001 Maxima SE and absolutely love it!! Give me a 6 speed manual option in the new Maxima and I'd seriously consider buying one in the future.

NICE Review: 2019 Nissan Maxima Platinum

[@apocalypse13]

the Maxima is actually 1/10th of an inch SHORTER than the Altima, same length as the camry and half an inch larger than the accord....it's a myth that the maxima is full size... not sure why it's still in that category...maybe for price, luxury and performance, but certainly not for size

[@NissanGuy94]

I love my 2017 SR. Perfect car for me.

[@ravinkissoon860]

To awesome Nissan Maxima 😀😊

[@basithph8958]

Good looks but I rather get a Camry TRD or Accord 2.0T manual

[@brolyv5802]

BASITH PH Accord MANUAL for sure!!!

[@blessed4164]

Accord? Camry? BWAHHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHA😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@brolyv5802]

MAGA2020 with limited choice of Manual transmissioned midsize cars, what else is there? Whatever, I drive a cheap thrill mustang.

[@blessed4164]

@@brolyv5802 I just hate Camrys and accord.

[@gardnerhatch5982]

MAGA2020 ...is there a reason why??

[@libra9194]

Another great video Matt. Like the looks and interior of the car. But, no fu**ing way will I buy a CVT. NO NO NO. Hey Matt, how's the Bullitt driving there days?

[@Helzyeah99]

did anyone else think @ 0:58 their was a little girl screaming in your house?

[@ministerc9513]

I need my fruit for the day so I'm going to eat a... "Saddle Brown."

[@Nismax09]

Sport mode in the cvt does nothing it’s faster in the regular setting

[@primacasacostruzionicampom1085]

Bellissima automobile! Peccato che in Italia non sia importata, con un bel motore diesel.....

[@arevo8702]

Ok

[@JayzBeerz]

great video but never showed the engine thanks dude

[@uww.v]

He did after 12 mins

[@TonyA4766]

So this or the Kia Stinger GT? I'm shopping ...

[@Rubeneides246]

Kia, Nissan has had some serious issues with their CVT transmissions and Kia offers a much better bumper to bumper warranty

[@TonyA4766]

RubenRides Thanks bro....I like both. I've owned a couple of Nissans before the cvt and loved them. But the Stinger looks so damn good !!

[@MrNemo721]

I have driven both. Stinger GT any day all day.

[@tdade13]

I won’t a stinger and it’s worlds better, actually a 4 door sports car, more room, better infotainment, very fast 8 speed transmission, good gas and can still do 4.6 0-60

[@MattMaranMotoring]

I compare this with the Stinger later in the video. I'd definitely rather have the Stinger.

[@integrafreak1]

REPLACE THE CVT!!!!
