The Nissan Maxima is a full-size car produced by Nissan and sold mainly in North America, China, and the Middle East. The Maxima was introduced in 1981 for the 1982 model year as the Datsun Maxima. The Nissan Maxima has its origins in the Datsun/Nissan Bluebird, though the Datsun brand was phased out in favor of Nissan for the 1985 model year. In some markets outside of North America, the name “Maxima” has been used for the Nissan Cefiro and Teana.

The Nissan Maxima was redesigned for its seventh generation, which was introduced in 2008 for the 2009 model year. The seventh-generation Nissan Maxima is also known as the A35 series.
