The Silvia S16 will be powered by 2.0l engine. This translates to a whopping 217lb per ft torque, as well as over 200bhp.

Nissan, in its publications, has claimed that the front seated engine and its rear wheel driven coupe has been built by engineers from Renault and Nissan. Its torque really stands out. Why? It’s be the first in its line to effectively challenge the both the Subaru and Scion FS-R/BZ. In fact, it can beat the Scion in a 0-62km/h sprint.

The new Nissan Silvia S16 is smaller sized than the previous design. Its exterior is bound to be upgraded from that of the existing version. It will be sturdier and more efficient for its class. And of course, it will retain the executive and friendly look of the 2015 version. In addition, with the current version’s exterior having been built to withstand all kinds of environmental conditions, we expect nothing less of the new Nissan Silvia S16.

Besides the 2.0l engine, there’ll be an option to fit it with a 1.8l Mercedes engine. This is the same engine powering the Mercedes’ C180. What can it do? It can reach 156bhp at 1600rpm and 15484lb/ft of torque at 4200rpm.
