Q. The Nissan Maxima is available in India only as a grey import at ₹35–55 Lakh — for that price, what does it offer that officially sold sedans in India do not?
SIX BUY AND SELL TEAM • Apr 2026
The Maxima brings a 3.5L naturally aspirated V6 (300 PS), a genuinely spacious 5-seat executive cabin, and Nissan's Sport Sedan character to a segment dominated by 4-cylinder turbocharged alternatives. As a grey import, its appeal is exclusivity — you will rarely see another Maxima on Indian roads. The honest trade-off: no authorised service support in India, and parts require international sourcing. Buy it for the driving experience and V6 character; be fully prepared for independent specialist-only ownership.

Q. A 3.5L V6 in an Indian context — what kind of monthly fuel cost should a Maxima owner realistically budget for?
SIX BUY AND SELL TEAM • Apr 2026
City mileage from the 3.5L V6 will be 7–9 km/l; highway returns 11–13 km/l. For a 1,200 km/month mixed-use owner, expect monthly fuel bills of ₹12,000–₹18,000. The V6 requires 95-RON premium petrol consistently — at 91 RON, knock retard can gradually affect performance and fuel efficiency over time. This is a car bought with the clear understanding that fuel economy is not a priority; the 3.5L V6's smoothness and sound are the return on the higher fuel investment.

The Xtronic CVT on the Maxima has been calibrated more aggressively than Nissan's economy CVTs — in Sport mode, the system simulates 8-speed stepped gear changes that feel reasonably convincing. The honest verdict: CVT purists will still find it less engaging than a traditional torque-converter automatic. But the V6's 350 Nm torque means the CVT rarely feels out of its depth in everyday driving. 0–100 km/h in 6.4 seconds is more than adequate for Indian roads, and the V6 pulls cleanly through the entire rev range in a way 4-cylinder turbos cannot match.

Q. Does the Maxima's CVT transmission undermine the performance promise of a V6, or does Nissan's Xtronic CVT manage the power well enough?

Q. Maxima vs Toyota Avalon vs Honda Accord V6 — for an Indian buyer considering a used import full-size V6 sedan, which is the more compelling choice?
SIX BUY AND SELL TEAM • Apr 2026
The Avalon (V6, discontinued) is more reliably maintained via Toyota's global network; the Accord V6 (also discontinued) offers Honda's legendary reliability. The Maxima's V6 character and Sport sedan tuning make it the most driver-engaging of the three. For Indian grey-import buyers, the Accord V6 has the strongest specialist support and parts accessibility in India. The Maxima wins on uniqueness and driving character; the Accord wins on practical ownership logic. Toyota Avalon buyers are served best if long-haul comfort is the priority.

Q. As a grey import without Indian authorised service, what does Maxima ownership practically require, and what are the known long-term reliability considerations?
SIX BUY AND SELL TEAM • Apr 2026
The VQ35DE engine (Maxima's 3.5L) is one of Nissan's most reliable powerplants — it runs 2,50,000+ km without major internal work when oil is changed every 7,500 km. Known maintenance items: timing chain tensioner at 100,000 km (preventive), CVT fluid change every 30,000 km (critical and often overlooked on grey imports — failure costs ₹1.5–2.5 Lakh). Parts source through Nissan India for VQ-series engine components; CVT and body-specific parts need international procurement. Annual independent service cost: ₹25,000–₹45,000 from a Nissan-experienced workshop.
