Both the 2022 Nissan Altima and the 2022 Toyota Camry are midsize four-door sedans. They have a similar form factor as well. The wheelbase, for instance, is 111.2 inches in both cases. The Altima is 192.9 inches in length—a hair more than 16 feet—and has 5.4-inch minimum ground clearance whereas the Camry is 192.1 inches long and has a 5.7-inch ground clearance. Height and width are both within fractions of inches. The Altima comes standard with 16-inch wheels and offers 17- to 19-inch wheels as an option. The Camry comes standard with 17-inch wheels and offers up to 19-inch wheels as well. Toyota includes LED headlamps, but you can step up to the Altima SV at a lower cost and get LED headlamps along with 17-inch alloy wheels and, optionally, heated outside mirrors.
Interior – 2022 Nissan Altima in Lumberton NC
The cabin is often a focal point for drivers comparing the 2022 Nissan Altima vs 2022 Toyota Camry. Both of these are five-passenger vehicles that offer similar front headroom at about 38 inches. The Altima affords almost 44 inches of front legroom, which is among best in class and about 2 inches more than the Camry. Toyota has opted to use this space in the rear seating instead, but the Nissan offers more than 35 inches in the rear seat. That is more than enough for most adults, and we think that the average driver would prefer the greater roominess up front. Trunk space is comparable with the Nissan trunk being a bit bigger: 15.4 vs 15.1 cubic feet. In terms of interior equipment, the standard features and options are comparable, but the Altima provides you a better value proposition.
Nissan Altima Mechanical specs
Nissan offers powertrain options. The base setup pairs a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine—188 horsepower and 180 pound-feet of torque—to a continuously variable transmission that distributes power to the front wheels. With the SV trim level and up, all-wheel drive is available as an option. If you prefer a sportier sedan, Nissan offers the front-wheel-drive SR with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that makes 236 hp and 267 lb.-ft. Those numbers are also higher if you use 93 octane gas. Keyless entry, push-button ignition and remote ignition are all standard. The SR model with either engine adds paddle shifters and, if you opt for front-wheel drive, a sports suspension. Toyota offers a similar range of options. You have the choice of front-wheel and all-wheel drive with the standard four-cylinder engine, which is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Toyota also offers a V6, but that is only available via the high-end TRD trim level. Keyless entry and ignition and remote start are not standard with the 2022 Toyota Camry but rather included starting with the XLE trim level.
