Honestly, there are so many subgenres and weird genre mashups these days that trying to pin a movie down to one specific category is basically impossible. For me, Max has always been—and will always be—just a gritty, post-apocalyptic bloodbath on wheels with killer chase scenes. I don't really see enough heavy sci-fi elements to call it that, though I guess you could argue it fits under the sci-fi umbrella if you look at it through the lens of apocalyptic movies, which leads to road movies, which leads to sub-sub-subgenres...
