The seventh-generation Nissan Silvia is a rear-wheel-drive coupe whose character depends strongly on its powertrain. Your choice of engine and transmission shapes both everyday ease and how involved you feel behind the wheel.
Nissan Silvia engine choices include naturally aspirated and turbocharged gasoline options. Naturally aspirated versions offer predictable accelerator response, while turbocharged versions provide stronger acceleration as boost builds. A manual transmission gives you direct control over gear selection; an automatic reduces the effort of driving in traffic.
