What do the Driving Modes do in the 2018 Nissan Maxima?
The most powerful Nissan sedan, as well as one of the manufacturer’s most popular models in general, the Maxima offers drivers a unique and exhilarating driving experience like no other vehicle. Power isn’t the only thing that makes this sedan shine, as drivers can also get the best experience for them thanks to being able to switch driving modes. So, what do the driving modes do in the 2018 Nissan Maxima?
What helps make the Maxima so popular is its impressive 3.5-liter DOHC 24-valve V6 engine. This beast is able to offer an incredible 300 horsepower and 261 lb-ft of torque. However, the Maxima’s Drive Mode Selector is a game changer. This selector is able to offer both a Normal Mode and a Sport Mode.
Nissan Maxima Normal Mode vs Sport Mode
When in Normal Mode, the Maxima will of course drive then drive normally. This mode offers the standard driving experience designed by Nissan and is the default driving option for those behind the wheel not looking for any specific performance outside of what the sedan usually offers.

However, when drivers switch over to Sport mode, a few key things change. When in Sport Mode, you’ll notice a sharpened response in throttle, steering and transmission tuning while behind the wheel. With the available Active Sound Enhancement, drivers will also hear a more powerful engine at work.
