+Between 1975 and 2002, Nissan retailed the Silvia as the 200SX in some export markets. Six generations were constructed, with new models released in 1979, 1984, 1989, 1993, and 1999.
-In 1995, Nissan reintroduced the 200SX nameplate in [[United States]] and [[Canada]] to designate the [[Nissan Lucino]], essentially a two-door version of the Nissan Sentra (B14 chassis, a front wheel drive car). It was sold in Japan and Mexico as Lucino. In North America it replaced the two-door [[Nissan Sentra|Sentra]] and [[Nissan NX]] (discontinued in 1993). The 200SX came in base, SE, and sportier SE-R models. All shared their front-end appearance, front-drive chassis, dashboard, and many dimensions with the Nissan Sentra ({{lang-ja|[[:ja:日産・ルキノ|Nissan Lucino]]}}). Base and SE editions shared Sentra's twin-cam [[Nissan GA engine|GA16DE]] engine [[Inline-four engine|4-cylinder]] engine. The SE-R inherited the 140-horsepower 2.0&nbsp;L [[Nissan SR engine#SR20DE|SR20DE]] engine used in the previous 2-door Sentra SE-R. All three came with a 5-speed [[manual transmission]] or 4-speed [[Automatic transmission|automatic]], and were equipped with dual airbags. Antilock brakes were optional in the SE and SE-R. The price, new: $14,269-17,549.

-The base model adopted the same interior trim as its SE and SE-R companions. The SE-R was no longer available in California due to tightening emissions requirements. The round exhaust finisher was changed to an oval unit for this year's SE-R model. The rear spoiler is made standard on all trim levels.
+Between 1995 and 1998, Nissan retailed the [[Nissan Lucino|Lucino]] as the 200SX in the United States and Canada.

-The SE-R returned to California this year, with additional emissions equipement on the SR20DE engine. All models got new headlights and taillights, revised bumpers, and white-face gauges. The grille was also altered. Also, base models replaced the 13&nbsp;inch wheels with 14-inchers. The 200SX did not return for 1999 but its {{convert|140|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} engine continued in the four-door [[Nissan Sentra|Sentra SE]].

-In several markets, including [[Mexico]] and Japan, this car was sold from 1996 to 2000 under the name of '''Nissan Lucino'''. In Mexico it came with two versions available: GSE for the 1.6 l engine, and GSR for the 2.0 litre.
-If not for this one car, there would be no confusion, as every other Nissan with a name ending in "SX" refers to a car based on the [[Nissan S platform]].
