Built as a compact car by class, the unique qualities of entra -- roomy interior, smooth ride and responsive handling -- make it operate and feel more like a mid-size sedan. entra maintains its strong appeal to small car buyers by offering many unique features not typically found in a compact car. Jointly developed by designers and engineers in the U.. and Japan, entra offers an expansive 97.9 cu. ft. of interior space, providing a comfortable space for both driver and passengers. Engine/uspension/Body tructure In an effort to offer more usable interior volume, Nissan utilizes their innovative rear Multi-Link Beam suspension which allows for compact suspension packaging, leaving more room for rear seat passengers and a larger trunk. Additionally, this advanced suspension provides better handling and reduced road noise, ultimately improving the driving experience. By eby employing a stiffer body, reducing the number of rear suspension mounting points and using a larger muffler, Nissan has resourcefully minimized interior noise and vibration. entra's powerplant is equally impressive with a 1.6-liter DOHC 4-cylinder engine, delivering 115 horsepower and excellent low-end torque. This responsive engine, coupled with entra's independent strut front suspension system with stabilizer bar, allows for precise and controlled handling in a variety of driving situations. This powerplant enables entra to achieve outstanding fuel economy while meeting California's stringent Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) standard. entra's efficient engine delivers an EPA estimate of 30/40 mpg Highway/City with the standard 5-speed manual transmission and 28/37 mpg Highway/City with the optional 4-speed automatic transmission. The entra's 1.6-liter engine utilizes the Nissan Variable Valve Timing Control ystem (NVTC) to ensure optimum performance and fuel economy.

The NVTC system helps entra's 1.6-liter engine provide better performance at lower engine speeds, without sacrificing high speed power output or fuel economy. This combination of power and stability makes entra a pleasure to drive, while the spacious interior provides an inviting atmosphere for passengers. afeafety Features The 1997 entra also features an extensive list of standard safety features including: dual air bags; energy-absorbing steering column; manual 3-point front seat belts with height-adjustable anchors; and steel side-door guard beams that help the entra meet 1997 Federal ide-impact afety tandards. tandard Equipment/Optional Features and Packages The 1997 entra is offered in four trim levels -- Base, XE, GXE and top-of-theline GLE. Nissan entra comes equipped with a number of thoughtful and functional features, all of which add to the excellent value of the vehicle. Adjustable front head restraints, a tilt steering column, low-fatigue reclining front seats, easy access pull-out cup holders and an easy-to-reach center console add comfort for the driver and passengers on a short local trips or longer highway travels. Distinguishing the various entra models are several available comfort and convenience features, including: power windows and door locks; power sliding glass sunroof with sun shade; an advanced audio system; remote keyless entry system and vehicle security system; automatic transmission; and 4-channel/4- sensor anti-lock braking system (AB).
