Try as they might, carmakers striving for excellence on par with the 2016 Nissan Maxima just fall short. When comparing cars in the same category as the Maxima, the standout is clear. Let's take a look at a head-to-head battle pitting the 2016 Nissan Maxima vs. Acura TLX and Toyota Avalon.

 Jet-Inspired Design Soars With Awards

The 2016 Maxima is a stunner both inside and out. With aerodynamic styling modeled after jet airplanes and a level of luxury that is unexpected in a sports sedan, this Nissan blows away all competitors. The interior recently was rated in the Top 10 by Wards, something the TLX and Avalon cannot boast.

Buyers can customize their Maxima with Italian Alcantara seat inserts, which, when combined with zero gravity seats, provide the most comfortable ride in the class.

Not Just a Pretty Face

Although the 2016 Maxima has a gorgeous design, that's not the only outstanding trait it offers. The engine performance is top-notch, and the horsepower-to-weight ratio leads the field at 11.6 pounds to pull per horse. The Acura TLX trails at 12.4 pounds, and the Toyota Avalon is even lower at 13.1. What do these numbers mean? A low horsepower-to-weight ratio translates into one important thing: speed. Throw in the 2016 Maxima's Integrated Dynamic-control Module with Active Ride Control, and you're in for the most exciting ride going.

    

 Safety Features Take Precedence

The Nissan Maxima leads the category in safety-based technology with two important available features. First, the Predictive Forward Collision Warning systems monitors what is happening with the cars in front of you, such as sudden deceleration. Second, the Driver Attention Alert registers possible erratic driving and notifies the driver that fatigue is suspected. Neither the Acura TLX nor the Toyota Avalon offers these safety features.
