The power side of the equation comes in the form of Sentra NISMO’s new 1.6-liter Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG) turbocharged engine, which is shared with the new-for-2017 Sentra SR Turbo model.
Rated at 188 horsepower at 5,600 RPM and 177 lb-ft of torque at 1,600 - 5,200 RPM, the 16-valve DOHC aluminum-alloy inline 4-cylinder engine includes a 10.5:1 compression ratio, Continuously Variable Valve Timing Control System (CVTCS), spray-coated and mirror-finish cylinder bores, a variable pressure oil pump and a low- pressure EGR system, which helps lower exhaust gas temperature and improve knock sensitivity.
