J.D. Power recently presented their awards following the results of their 2016 U.S. Tech Experience Index (TXI) Study™. This study measures the overall experience that owners have with their vehicle during 90 days while utilizing the driver-centric vehicle technologies”. The technologies that the study focuses on the most include entertainment and connectivity, collision protection, smartphone mirroring, comfort and convenience, navigation, and driving assistance. Thanks to its impressive lineup of available technologies, the 2016 Nissan Maxima earned top honors in the large car category.  

“Maxima is the flagship of the Nissan sedan lineup, with standard 8.0-inch display and standard NissanConnect with Navigation, with intuitive smartphone-like gestures such as swiping and pinch-to-zoom,” said Michael Bunce, vice president, Product Strategy and Planning, Nissan North America, Inc. (NNA). “Nissan places usability, as well as safety and security of vehicle owners and their passengers as a top priority, and this award certainly reflects that mindset. Thank you to J.D. Power for this recognition.”

Some of the technologies that are available on the 2016 Maxima, depending on the trim you choose, include Driver Attention Alert (DAA) system, Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW), Blind Spot Warning (BSW), Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC), Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA), and Forward Emergency Braking (FEB).
