2022 Chevrolet Camaro Review

- Impressively sharp and nimble handling around turns
- Potent acceleration from V6 and V8 engines
- Relatively smooth ride, especially with the adaptive suspension
- Solid value thanks to a long list of standard equipment
- Difficult to see out of
- Tiny back seat is essentially useless
- Limited trunk space with small opening
- Some controls are awkward to use
- 1LE Track Performance package no longer offered on four- or six-cylinder models
- Part of the sixth Camaro generation introduced for 2016
The 2022 Chevrolet Camaro is one of only three cars keeping the old-school muscle car segment alive. The Camaro — along with its chief rivals, the Dodge Challenger and Ford Mustang — takes the traditional hallmarks of this specialized segment and updates them for a modern audience. You still get the pulse-pounding acceleration provided by the muscle cars of old, but now with a high-tech interior and elevated handling performance.
The Chevy puts a premium on a sporty driving experience — so much so that it's almost at the detriment to its everyday drivability. The sleek styling creates short windows that impede outward visibility, while both trunk space and cabin storage are the most meager in the class. If practicality is a consideration for your next car purchase, the Ford and Dodge offer more usable space. We also think the Mustang drives just as well as the Camaro on a set of twisty mountain roads. For more about the Chevy's strengths and pitfalls, check out Edmunds' expert evaluation below.
Performance
Handling feels more precise with the smaller and lighter engines, but the V8 with its stickier tires exhibits higher limits. The manual transmissions have great positive gates, and rev matching ensures downshifts that are as good as a pro racer's.
Comfort
The well-shaped front seatbacks offer good lateral support without being confining, but the bottom cushion can feel tight to some. We also like the effectively padded door and center armrests. Unsurprisingly, the back seat is cramped even for short drives. The climate control center vents are oddly placed in front of the shift lever where they excel at freezing or heating your hand while cruising.

Interior
Interior controls are arranged in an unusual way that comes with a surmountable learning curve. The forward half of the interior feels large provided you don't opt for the sunroof. In back, people of average height won't find much space, especially if the driver is tall. In true performance coupe fashion, this back seat is for kids only.
Technology
Storage
Interior storage is minimal. The door pockets and under-armrest bin are tiny. At least the cupholders are of a fair size and mostly out of the way during shifting. And although the back seat may be useless for adults, it does allow for extra interior storage.
Fuel Economy
Value
From its mid-$20,000 base models to the top-level ZL1, the Camaro costs about the same as an equivalent Mustang. Features for the dollar are comparable too, be they the track packages or exterior styling upgrades, but performance is squarely in the Camaro's favor.
Wildcard
Which Camaro does Edmunds recommend?
Chevrolet Camaro models
The 2022 Camaro is a rear-wheel-drive muscle car that comes in eight trim levels. It starts as the four-cylinder 1LS and progresses to the 1LT, 2LT and 3LT that can be optioned with a V6. The LT1 comes with a V8, while the 1SS and the 2SS receive further performance upgrades. Finally, the mighty ZL1 offers a supercharged V8 and track pedigree.

Chevrolet Camaro vs. the competition

2022 Chevrolet Camaro

2021 Dodge Challenger
Chevrolet Camaro vs. Dodge Challenger
The Dodge Challenger is the most old-school of the three muscle cars on sale today. Given its ponderous handling, this big cruiser is most comfortable traveling in a straight line. And it's equipped to do so, with a comfortable ride and range of powerful engines. The Chevy is undoubtedly the sportier of the two.
Chevrolet Camaro vs. Ford Mustang
The Ford Mustang strikes an ideal balance between the Challenger's comfort-oriented approach and the Camaro's sporty nature. The Mustang is pleasant to drive on the road, but it's also equipped to tackle twisty roads with aplomb. Its expansive windows aid in outward visibility, making it easier to drive than the Camaro. If it were our money, we'd plunk down cash for the Ford.
Chevrolet Camaro vs. Cadillac CT5
The Cadillac CT5 might seem like a left-field pick — it's a far more expensive midsize luxury sedan, after all — but it has a lot in common with the Chevy. Both vehicles are built on the same rear-wheel-drive platform, and even share a supercharged V8 in the Camaro ZL1 and CT5-V Blackwing trims. Think of the CT5 as a Camaro for the junior exec.

Should I lease or buy a 2022 Chevrolet Camaro?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
