Nissan Leopard Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1980–1986) — First Generation
The first-generation Nissan Leopard arrived as a compact luxury offering in both coupe and sedan form, pairing a personal-car character with rear-wheel-drive proportions and a choice of gasoline powertrains suited to relaxed touring or more involved driving.
A representative Nissan Leopard engine here is a 2.0-litre gasoline unit, offered in the coupe with either a manual or an automatic transmission, and in the sedan with a manual. Every version sends drive rearward, so the drivetrain favours balanced handling; the automatic simply eases everyday traffic.
