2016 Chevrolet Impala vs 2016 Nissan Maxima
When you’re looking for a large sedan with a spacious, well-equipped cabin and plenty of power and fuel-saving technology, it’s time to have a look at the 2016 Chevrolet Impala. Delivering in all of these areas, the newest Impala also comes with a large cargo area and advanced tech features to keep you safe and entertained. Some buyers may be drawn to the 2016 Nissan Maxima, but after some research it’s apparent the 2016 Chevrolet Impala is the superior choice.

Standard Fuel Economy
Save more money at the gas tank with the 2016 Chevrolet Impala’s standard powertrain, a 2.5L inline-four that gets an EPA-estimated 31 mpg highway and 22 mpg city. The 2016 Nissan Maxima’s only available engine is a 3.5L V6, which comes in just under the Impala at an EPA-estimated 30 mpg highway and 22 mpg city.
Max Performance
If performance is your priority, then upgrade your Impala’s engine to beat out the Maxima. LT and LTZ trims of the Impala are offered with an available 3.6L V6 engine that pumps out a commanding 305 hp and 264 lb-ft of torque, while the Maxima’s only available 3.5L V6 serves up an inferior 300 hp and 261 lb-ft of torque.

While both of these cars come with seating for up to five passengers, the 2016 Chevrolet Impala has been designed to offer more space in the cabin and inside the trunk. Its interior measures a spacious 123.8 cubic feet, while the trunk has plenty of space for even a big trip at 18.8 cubic feet. The 2016 Nissan Maxima’s cabin is noticeably smaller, particularly in the back seats, with an interior volume of only 112.9 cubic feet. The trunk is also significantly smaller at only 14.3 cubic feet.
