Regardless of engine, the 2022 Camaro is the best-driving muscle car of its segment, edging out more expensive sports cars when it comes to behind-the-wheel thrills. Poor outward visibility and a tiny trunk limit its practicality as a daily driver. If you can live with these downsides, you'll be rewarded every time you drive it. If not, the Mustang and the Challenger deliver similar thrills with fewer flaws.

2022 Chevrolet Camaro Review
Pros
- 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
Cons
- Difficult to see out of
- Tiny back seat is essentially useless
- Limited trunk space with small opening
- Some controls are awkward to use
What's new
- 1LE Track Performance package no longer offered on four- or six-cylinder models
- Part of the sixth Camaro generation introduced for 2016
Overview

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.
Edmunds Expert Rating

by the Edmunds Experts
Average
7.4
out of 10
We drove the 2022 Chevrolet Camaro on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.
Performance
9/10
How does the Camaro drive? This Camaro is a strong performer that blends speed with precision and enjoyment in a way that previous Camaros never did. The V8 is stout and our choice if you want the full muscle-car experience, but even the V6 and four-cylinder are punchy. Most models will out-drag an equivalent Mustang by a slight margin, and the brakes are up to the task of getting it stopped in a hurry.
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
7.5/10
How comfortable is the Camaro? The base suspension delivers a supple ride. The optional Magnetic Ride Control suspension (V8 only) is more capable over a variety of surfaces. The ride quality is very good considering the Camaro's mission. All engines are quiet cruisers, but only the V8 sounds good when driven hard.
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
6.5/10
How’s the interior? Visibility remains a big concern, and it makes the Camaro harder to operate and park in tight places than it should be. Surprisingly, the view forward and the view to the sides are even bigger problems. It's very hard to place the Camaro on tight roads (watch that rock wall!) or in tight spots (watch that shopping cart!). Shorter passengers can't see over the dashboard.
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
7/10
How’s the tech? The Camaro is a little hit-or-miss in this category. There's a respectable level of tech features, and we like the infotainment system's quick reactions and modern aesthetic, but the screen is oddly angled on the dash. The base touchscreen is also on the small side, which is one reason to upgrade to the larger one that comes with optional navigation. You must upgrade to higher trims for rear parking sensors, blind-spot monitoring and a rear cross-traffic alert system — things it sorely needs due to its terrible rear visibility.
Storage
5/10
How’s the storage? At 9.1 cubic feet, the Camaro coupe's trunk has not only the smallest volume in the segment, but it also has a tiny opening and a high liftover height. If you ever wondered why tourists who rent Camaro convertibles put their suitcases in the back seat, this is why.
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
7/10
How’s the fuel economy? The EPA rates the V6 automatic at 22 mpg combined (18 city/29 highway), the V8 automatic at 20 mpg combined (16 city/26 highway), and the four-cylinder automatic at 25 mpg combined (22 city/30 highway). These figures are similar to those for other muscle cars.
Value
7.5/10
Is the Camaro a good value? The strong performance value really trumps all else here. The Camaro is the best driver's car of its type. There are some hard plastics that seem out of place in an otherwise pleasant interior. That said, the construction and assembly are strong with no creaks or squeaks.
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
9/10
The Camaro delivers a surprisingly cohesive and involving driving experience that competes at a class above. The V8's sound is compelling and the tremendous thrust addictive. Handling with the V6 and four-cylinder models is honest and lithe, but the sound from either engine is hard to like. Exuberantly styled, this low-slung coupe grabs attention, which may or may not be to your liking.
2022 Chevrolet Camaro trim level differences
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. Most come as either a coupe or convertible. Highlight features include:
Which Camaro trim does Edmunds recommend?
The Camaro's diverse lineup means there's a model to fit anyone's taste, but there are a few standouts. If you have your eye on the bottom line, the 2LT is a great way to go. You get quite a few desirable features (including heated and ventilated seats!) to keep you comfortable from behind the wheel. If you just want V8 power, the 1SS gives you that, plus some mechanical upgrades you won't find on the more affordable LT1. But the 2SS is perhaps the most well-rounded trim, balancing the V8's hearty acceleration with lots of modern technology and comfort features.

2021 Chevrolet Camaro 1LT 2dr Convertible (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
I am a 78 old man and I have always loved cars that make you feel special
And add a positive upper in your life. I love my Camaro, it looks great and it makes me feel young. It handles great interior is great, back seat area a little tight, but I am the driver so back seats don’t worry me. It handles great rides good, looks great top up or down. I highly recommend for the adventurous … type. Sincerely, Richard Basile
Like a Vette, but with emergency back seats!

2021 Chevrolet Camaro 2SS 2dr Coupe (6.2L 8cyl 6M)
2SS with 1LE Track Package. Lots of power (of course) but also really spectacular handling with the 1LE. As a previous Corvette owner, I was very surprised at how sports car like the car is. Interior is also very comfortable (for front seat occupants) and much higher quality than Corvettes of 10-15 years ago. Much like a Vette, very limited storage inside the cabin. A small center … console and a glove box is all you get. Not a big deal, if you’re looking at this as a sports car, but if you’re looking at it as a fun passenger coupe, it might be disappointing.
Back seats are useable for adults if the trip is short (less than an hour). Over about 5’9” and you have to tilt your head to the side due to low rear seat headroom. But still, unlike my Vette, if you need to throw someone in the back for a lift home or something, you have that option. If you have kids up through early teens, completely useable back seats for routine use.
Trunk is actually fairly large, but the trunk opening is only big enough for carry-on size suitcases. Completely useable and sufficient storage for daily driver use, but medium-large suitcases and such aren’t getting in there.
In all, if you’re in the market for a fairly “no-compromise” sports car, but would like just a touch more practicality, the 2SS Camaro with the 1LE package is a fantastic option. Plus, it’s a Chevy. It’s about $20k cheaper than imported equivalent cars, you can get it fixed almost anywhere in the USA and parts won’t require a second mortgage on your house. I’m very happy with the purchase.
LT1 Vette for less!

2022 Chevrolet Camaro LT1 2dr Convertible (6.2L 8cyl 6M)
I just bought Dodge Ram 3 months earlier because only vehicle I could find for under Msrp. I went to get part for my wife’s Camaro and saw the Camaro convertible I always wanted . Someone ordered it and changed their mind. I thought about it if I don’t buy I’ll always wish I had v8 convertible. I bought it with no regret. Sound alone worth buying but the electric top is fantastic. Car … does everything fantastic. Did 7 hour trip to beach and seats comfortable. Ac fantastic and msrp was under 46 and I didn’t get charged over. No convertible is equipped like this for the price. Not a rattle to be heard.
