QR20DE

The 2.0 L (1998 cc) QR20DE produces 147 hp (110 kW) and 148 lb·ft (200 N·m) The bore is 89 mm with a stroke of 80.3 mm and a compression ratio of 9.9:1.[1] The QR20DE was replaced with the MR20DE.

Vehicle applications:

  • 2001-2007 Nissan X-Trail T30 (140 hp)
  • 2001-2007 Nissan Primera P12

  • 2002-2005 Nissan Avenir W11
  • 2001-2004 Nissan Prairie M12

    • QR20DD

    The QR20DD is similar to the QR20DE but features NEO direct injection to improve fuel economy and to reduce emissions.[2] It produces 150 hp (110 kW).

    Vehicle applications:

  • 2000-2004 Nissan Bluebird Sylphy

    • QR25DE

    The QR25DE is a 2.5 L (2488 cc) variant built with cast steel connecting rods, a steel timing chain, counter-rotating balance shafts, and an aluminum intake manifold. The engine bore is 89 mm with a stroke of 100 mm and a compression ratio ranging from 9.5:1 to 10.5:1 depending on the vehicle.

    Output is rated 175 hp (130 kW) at 6000 rpm with 180 lb·ft (244 N·m) of torque at 4000 rpm in the Altima 2.5 and Sentra SE-R models. Altimas that are PZEV compliant create 170 hp (130 kW) and 175 lb·ft (237 N·m) of torque.[3] In the 2005+ Nissan Frontier the QR25DE generates 152 hp (113 kW) and 171 lb·ft (232 N·m) of torque.[4]

    Vehicle applications:

  • 1999-2003 Nissan Bassara- 165 hp (123 kW)
  • 2001–2005 Nissan Serena C24- 158 hp (118 kW)
  • 2001-2007 Nissan X-Trail T30 APEC export version- 178 hp (133 kW)
  • 2002-2006 Nissan Sentra SE-R- 165 hp (123 kW) & SE-R Spec V- 175 hp (130 kW)

  • 2003-present Nissan Murano (Japan)
  • 2005–present Nissan Frontier- 152 hp (113 kW)
  • 2007–2012 Nissan Sentra SE-R- 177 hp (132 kW) & SE-R Spec V- 200 hp (149 kW)
  • 2007–2011 Nissan Altima Hybrid 158 hp (118 kW), combined 198 hp (148 kW)
  • 2007–present Nissan X-Trail T31- 169 hp (126 kW)
  • 2007–present Renault Koleos TR25- 169 hp (126 kW)
  • 2008–present Nissan Rogue- 170 hp (127 kW)
  • 2009–2012 Suzuki Equator- 152 hp (113 kW)

    • 2007+ QR25DE

    The revised QR25DE found in the 2007+ Sentra, Altima, Rogue, etc. has a number of improvements over the older QR25DE. These include:

  • A simpler, larger diameter single path resin intake manifold replaced the old dual path design. (Note: California emissions models do have a swirl control valve located in the intake)
  • Revised piston crown shape to support a higher compression ratio of 9.6:1.(10.5:1 in Sentra SE-R Spec V.)
  • The balancer system has been moved back slightly from the crank pulley to a more central location in the block.
  • Revised cam shaft profile.
  • Reinforced connecting rods.
  • Reduced friction likely through Nissan's extensive use of coatings on pistons, journal bearings, etc.
  • Additional engine mount on the top of the motor, pulley side.
  • Higher rev limit and improved power output.

    • QR25DD

    The QR25DD is similar to the QR25DE but increases the compression ratio to 10.5:1 and includes direct injection. It produces 170 hp (125 kW) and 181 lb·ft (245 N·m).[5]

    Vehicle applications:

  • 2002-2006 Nissan Primera P12 (JDM)

    • QR25DER

    The QR25DER is similar to the QR25DE but has a supercharger for increased power and is coupled with a 15 kW electric motor, Dual Clutch System, and lithium-ion battery for increased fuel efficiency. The engine has a compression ratio of 9.1:1 and produces a combined 250 hp (190 kW) at 5600 rpm and 243 lb·ft (329 N·m) at 3600 rpm.

    Vehicle applications:

  • 2014 only Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid
  • 2016 only Nissan Murano Hybrid
  • 2014 - present Infiniti QX60 Hybrid
