It produces 90 hp (66 kW) It is a 12-valve design, and one version was built with hydraulic lifters. Japanese built 1989 and 1990 North American market Sentras received this hydraulic lifter version and produced 92 hp and 96 lb-ft of torque.

The GA16DE is a 1.6 L (1597 cc) engine produced from November 1990 through 1997. All GA16DEs have 16 valves and DOHC heads. There are two versions, the NVCS, which produced 115 hp and later 120 PS (85 kW) and 108 ft·lbf (146 Nm) and a non-NVCS version (European-spec) which made 102 hp (76 kW). Additionally 2 versions of the North American NVCS version exist. Earlier motors used pistons with 2 compression rings and 1 oil ring, while later GA16DE's have a single compression ring and a single oil ring. The GA16DE shares much of its block and rotating assembly with its predecessor the GA16I. Some engines have siamesed exhaust manifolds, while others keep the exhausts separated until the catalytic converter. Earlier ECUs contained the fuel & ignition maps on a discrete ROM IC, making retuning relatively easy, later ECUs buried the maps on a larger more integrated microcontroller's firmware, making retuning require the use of a daughterboard.

The meaning of the "N" in its nomenclature is a mystery.

Since 2003, comes with a new ECU and 3 oxygen sensors.
