Nissan reveals refreshed 2019 Maxima and Murano at Los Angeles Auto Show

 

LOS ANGELES โ€“ Sixty years ago this month, Nissan had the first public showing of its vehicles in the U.S. at the 1958 Los Angeles Auto Show. Little did the company know that the simple display of three cars and a tiny truck would six decades later lead to Nissan becoming a major player in the U.S. market with 22,000 employees and annual sales of 1.5 million vehicles.

Today, Nissan revealed its two newest models โ€“ both assembled in the U.S. โ€“ the 2019 Maxima sedan and 2019 Murano crossover at the 2018 Los Angeles Auto Show. Both models are set to go on sale at Nissan dealers nationwide in December.

“Los Angeles is where it all began for Nissan in the U.S., so we’re proud to support this always vibrant auto show with the first showings of these two new flagship models, Maxima and Murano,” said Dan Mohnke, senior vice president, Sales & Marketing and Operations, Nissan

The 2019 Nissan Maximaโ€™s aggressive, updated exterior appearance was created by Nissan Design America in La Jolla, Calif. and features a more voluminous front grille with a deeper V-motion flow that carries into the hood and down the body to the redesigned rear tail lamps and rear fascia.

Division U.S., Nissan North America, Inc. “Both vehicles embody the vision for the future that we call Nissan Intelligent Mobility, which provides technology in ways that move people to a better world.”

The new 2019 Maxima features an aggressive, updated exterior appearance with a more voluminous front grille with a deeper V-motion flow that carries into the hood and down the body to the redesigned rear tail lamps and rear fascia with integrated quad-tip exhaust finishers.
