The R-Type is a family of straight-4 turbocharged diesel engines developed by both Nissan and Renault, and also Daimler in regarding the R9M/OM626 engine. Released in 2011, it replaced the 1.9 dCi engine in Renault's range and the 2.0 dCi in the Nissan Qashqai, and in 2015, it also replaced the 2.0 dCi in the Renault Mégane as well. When launched, the engine produced {{Convert|130|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}. Renault later introduced a higher-powered twin-turbocharged variant producing {{Convert|160|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}.

{{anchor|R9M 130|R9M 130PS}}R9M 130

R9M 130PS was introduced in 2011.

Developed within the framework of the Alliance, the newcomer's performance credentials were made similar to those of its predecessor, the 1.9 dCi 130 engine. This 1.6-litre power plant delivered peak power of {{Convert|130|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} and torque of {{Convert|320|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} available across a broad rev-band.

This new block came with a change in Renault's engine downsizing policy. More downsizing was to be obtained, thanks to the shortening of the stroke of the pistons and a redesign of the reciprocating parts. The cylinder's swept volume was reduced and thereby diminished the amount of fuel being burned during each cycle. Performance levels were maintained, however, by improving turbocharging efficiency.

Applications:

{{anchor|R9M 160|R9M 160PS}}R9M 160

R9M 160 was launched in February 2011.{{cite web|url=http://www.renault.com/en/innovation/l-univers-du-design/pages/concept-car-captur.aspx|title=CAPTUR CONCEPT CAR}} It is twin-turbocharged, derived from the new Energy dCi 130. It produces {{Convert|160|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} from a capacity of {{Convert|1598|cc|L|1|order=flip|abbr=on}} – a specific power output of {{Convert|{{#expr:160/1.598 round 1}}|PS|kW hp|1|abbr=on}} per liter. Peak torque {{Convert|380|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} is available from 1,750 rpm. Paired with a dual clutch EDC gearbox, this driveline outputs {{CO2}} emissions of {{Convert|99|g|abbr=on}} per kilometre.

Applications:

R9N 120

R9N 120 was launched in 2018

Developed within the framework of the Alliance, the newcomer's performance credentials are similar to those of its predecessor, the 1.9 dCi 130 engine. This 1.7 litre powerplant delivers peak power of {{Convert|120|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} and torque of {{Convert|300|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} available across a broad rev-band.

Applications:

R9N 150

R9N 150 was launched in 2019

This {{convert|1.75|L|cc}} (commonly referred to as a 1.7 litre engine) 4-cylinder 16-valve Diesel engine delivers peak power of {{Convert|150|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} and torque of {{Convert|340|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} available across a broad rev-band. This engine was discontinued in 2021 alongside all other diesel engines in the cars of the Renault-Nissan alliance as part of their plan to stop developing and selling new diesel engines in their cars by 2021 in favor of hybrids and EVs.
