2021 Toyota Camry TRD Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh With a relatively peaky naturally aspirated 301-horsepower V6 (the same as in other V6 Camrys) rather than a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the Toyota Camry TRD is not the quickest car in the class. But for the great majority of drivers a 0-60 time around six seconds should be plenty quick.... Comparison vehicle: 2016 Nissan Maxima |
A great unassuming sports sedan that's easy on the pocketbook and big on thrills 2003 Nissan Maxima Pros and Cons Member6035 The VQ35 is an excellent powerplant and is still used in many Nissans today. This early VQ35 equipped car has a lot to surprise much newer cars due to the great performance. Factory rated at 255 HP, these still hold their own against many new sporty performance cars.

2016 Kia Optima SX Limited Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh As turbocharged four-cylinder engines go, the Kia Optima's 2.0-liter performs pretty well. Though horsepower is down from the previous generation's 274 to 245, the revised engine is significantly smoother and quieter.

While these changes are welcome, they don't significantly affects the car's performance. Acceleration remains... Comparison vehicle: 2015 Acura TLX |

2010 Nissan Maxima Pros and Cons A member in California, United States CVT allows for a seamless amount of power. No gears to shift the acceleration is constant.

2002 Nissan Maxima Pros and Cons Member4267 The Maxima gives and gives and gives! 255 HP in a 3200 lb vehicle provides awe-inspiring performance, ESPECIALLY when mated to the six-speed manual. The silky smooth engine and drivetrain has no faults, performance-wise. |

2002 Nissan Maxima Pros and Cons Member3354 The engine is/was a screamer, the 6spd sealed the deal over the Tl-S. Clutch is not as stout as it could be, and somewhat VAGUE in engagement/operation. |

2009 Nissan Maxima Pros and Cons A member in Indiana, United States The CVT allows great town and country mileage. The Engine has more power than any driver actually needs. Any prolonged WOT in passing will see serious speed limit abuses. Pass at 50, you pull back in at 85 under WOT. |

2002 Nissan Maxima Pros and Cons Member2925 Very strong performance for a family sedan. Really strong midrange for quick passing. Freeway on-ramps are a blast. |

2002 Nissan Maxima Pros and Cons Member2686 It is very powerful and has awesome low end torque. Really gets up and goes! Passing power on the highway (especially with the 6-speed manual) is a joyful and exciting experience. Gears are well thought out and takes full advantage of every horsepower. |
