Super Strength - Maxima is strong enough to easily lift and throw a car. She is easily in the same class as Superman and Wonder Woman, she can use her psionic abilities to push herself past those in her tier.

Super Speed - Maxima's speed is comparable to that of a Kryptonian and, like them, she is also able to perceive the world in super speed.

Super Durability - Maxima possesses a degree of durability, being tough enough to withstand shoves from a Kyrptonian and be equal to Superman. Her psionic abilities allow her to pass this as well.
