there is a slight difference. Maximal is an adjective meaning the highest or greatest possible. Maximum can be an adjective meaning as great, high or intense as possible or permitted or a noun or adverb. So in certain contexts they may not be the same - the vehicle's maximal speed may not match the maximum speed allowed on the motorway.
