Nissans largest passenger car was redesigned for arrival as an early 95 model. Front-wheel drive, V6 power, and 4-door sedan styling continued, but the new design was more rounded on a longer wheelbase. Model choices now numbered three, with the addition of a luxury GLE. Also available were a base GXE sedan, plus a sporty SE with a rear spoiler, firmer suspension, and wider tires. All Maximas shared a new aluminum 3.0-liter V6 with dual-overhead camshafts, rated at 190 horsepower. The GXE and SE came with a 5-speed manual transmission. An electronically controlled 4-speed automatic was optional on those models and standard on the GLE. Antilock brakes were optional on all except the 5-speed GXE.
