Nissan Altima vs Toyota Camry

Nissan Altima vs Toyota Camry: Sporty and Fuel-Efficient Design

You’ll feel quite a kick from the Toyota Camry, with its standard 2.5L Dynamic Force 4-cylinder engine. Press the gas and you’ll feel up to 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque taking you down the road. To make things even better, this engine delivers up to an EPA-estimated 28 city and 39 highway MPG.¹

The Nissan Altima is designed with its own standard 2.5L 4-cylinder engine as well, but it’s not quite as fast as the Toyota Camry. You’ll achieve up to 188 horsepower and 180 lb-ft of torque with this engine, all while getting up to an EPA-estimated 28 city and 39 highway MPG.²

2021 Altima vs 2021 Camry: Drivetrains

Both vehicles are designed to be sporty and fuel-efficient and come standard with front-wheel drive (FWD) drivelines. These drivelines offer solid fuel economy and better traction in the snow than what you’d find with rear-wheel drive.

Commuters often traveling in inclement weather may want to look toward the available all-wheel drivetrains found on these sedans. Where the Camry is available with a traditional all-wheel-drive (AWD) system, the Nissan Altima has available Intelligent AWD. This system applies torque to all four wheels when needed for optimal traction.

Toyota vs Nissan: Driver Assistance Features

Each of these vehicles offers driver-assistance features that the other doesn’t and it’s up to you to decide what you’d like. The Toyota Camry offers drivers an available 10-Inch Color Head-Up Display that projects information, like speed and navigation directions, onto your windshield. This ensures you won’t have to look away from the road to see how fast you’re going.

You’ll have an exceptionally comfortable ride with the Nissan Altima, which offers drivers its available ProPILOT Assist feature. Turn this on and your car will work to keep you at a steady speed while automatically keeping a safe distance behind traffic ahead. Your vehicle will even automatically work to guide you between the lane markers to reduce driver fatigue.
