2002 Nissan Maxima Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2002 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 This car loves to suck gas especially when pushed. And not just any gas, the high compression VQ35DE engine requires premium. In my experiences anything less than 91 octane will yield poor performance and odd engine noises. I average 17-18 mpg at best. see full Nissan Maxima review
