The Serena S-Hybrid has 2.0L (MR20DD) Twin CVTC (Continuously Variable-valve Timing Control) engine, paired with XTRONIC CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) with Adaptive Shift Control (ASC).
Maximum power output is now at 150PS at 6,000rpm with torque of 200Nm at 4,400rpm.
Using a new Dual Arm Tensioner (DAT) results in lower tension on the arm belt, thus reducing power loss and increasing fuel efficiency.
