2010 Nissan Maxima
Nissan is planning a Diesel Maxima for 2010. It will be using a Diesel V6 co developed by Renault. The 3.0-liter V6 dCi, should produce around 261hp and 406 lb-ft of torque. No word yet on the Miles per gallon of this car, but I’m guessing it will be around 38 Combined city and highway. I would estimate that the price will be around $35,000, diesels are normally more expensive the gasoline counterparts because of the development costs being higher. We might see this engine in other Nissans, but it will start out in the Maxima. The video below is a preview of the Renault engine that this Nissan’s engine is based on.
