Nissan Bluebird Engines and Transmissions

The Nissan Bluebird engine lineup includes gasoline and diesel options paired with manual or automatic transmissions. For example, the Coupe with a 1.9 gasoline engine comes with either a manual or automatic gearbox, both driving the rear wheels. The Estate 5-door features a 2.0 diesel with an automatic transmission, also rear-wheel drive. These powertrains balance everyday drivability with straightforward maintenance.
