Infiniti QR25DER specs: 2.5L (152 ci) 4-cylinder, 89 x 100 mm (3.5039 x 3.9370 in) bore and stroke, 9.1:1 compression. Rated 230-250 hp. DOHC.
The Infiniti QR25DER is undersquare — the 3.937" stroke exceeds the 3.5039" bore by 11.0% — a layout that trades peak RPM for leverage and torque low in the range. The 3.937" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 6,100 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 38.0 ci (623 cc).
9.1:1 on aluminum heads is low by modern standards and generally happy on regular pump fuel.
It is one of 2 engines in the QR family, the smallest at 152 ci. 2 factory variants share these dimensions, rated from 230 to 250 hp. Factory fitments include the Infiniti QX60 Hybrid.
