Nissan 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 250 hp, 2014–2015.

The Nissan 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 4 engines in the Nissan 152ci family, all of them 152 ci — the differences between them are in compression, heads and rating, not displacement. 2 factory variants share these dimensions, rated at 250 hp across 2014–2015.
