70 February 2016 www.bahrainthismonth.com Following a dramatic revamp, this model is bigger and better than ever. If you’re looking for a new car that offers value for money and a comfortable drive, the new Nissan Maxima may be the one for you. Following an impressive overhaul, this model looks better than ever thanks to graceful lines, contours and an aerodynamic design that is stylish and practical – and that’s just the exterior. The interior is spacious and comfortable with tastefully designed finishes that give this model a luxurious ambience. The dash is dominated by quality leather, which gives the cabin a smooth, clean look and the distinctive flatbottomed steering wheel adds a sporty touch. The focal point of the cabin is a command centre that incorporates bespoke motoring A Drive to Remember Y K ALMOAYYED & SONS – NISSAN MAXIMA craftsmanship and anchors the redesigned interior, which, incidentally, gives many luxury models a run for their money. The state-of-theart infotainment system has easy to use controls that are laid out clearly and efficiently. This eighth-generation model is the sportiest, most powerful Maxima ever made, created by driving enthusiasts for driving enthusiasts, its makers say – and they’re not wrong. It is sportier and more powerful than the outgoing model thanks to a 3.5-litre V6 that generates 300bhp. Make no bones about it, the Maxima is quick off the mark and when you switch to sport mode the drive changes accordingly. The sports mode of the vehicle gives an extra punch, surely taking some pointers from the GTRs driving abilities. For a relatively large model, the Maxima handles well and performs confidently around corners. Standard highway driving is a breeze and the tiptronic gearbox provides the opportunity to shift manually. Obviously, safety cannot be overlooked and this model includes antilock brakes, traction and stability control, front seat side airbags, side curtain airbags and a rearview camera as standard. There is also an impressive array of available features that are almost too numerous to mention. All in all, the Maxima will get you wherever you’re going on time and in style.
