Car financing: the 2016 Nissan Maxima
No 2016 Nissan Maxima is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the 2016 Nissan Maxima, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
A buyer's checks
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Owners filed 142 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, electrical system and unknown or other; have those parts checked. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the specs mean
The 3.5L 6-cylinder is what moves it, with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Fuel use is rated 9.5 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 29 litres. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $16.63, and a 300 km weekend about $49.89. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Who it is for
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Room inside
As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. The EPA measures its luggage space at 396 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Rent it for a week first
Try the Maxima on your commute, then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Picking a year and a trim
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2016 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
What it costs to run
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.63 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
