Powertrain Options and Availability
All Maximas enjoy Nissan's smooth 265-horsepower 3.5-liter V6. A 5-speed automatic is optional on SE models, and the only transmission available on SLs. A 6-speed manual is standard on SE models. For '07, Maxima swaps 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic transmissions for a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT); the CVT has a manual shift gate with six preselected gear ratios.
