"The Nissan Altima is a comfortable cruiser for five, but it doesn't match the cabin quality and driving engagement of many rivals." - cars.usnews.com
Of the several upgrades that the 2022 Nissan Altima is bound to receive for its interior, one that stands out is its zero-gravity seating. These seats deliver the most comfortable experience one could dream of. Otherwise, the interior is fitted with a standard hard plastic dashboard and easy-to-use switchgear. There are also options for several other interior customizations like the seat material, color, tones of the inserts, accents, and in some cases, wood inserts.
When it comes to the interior space provided for the occupants, the 2022 Altima doesn't make any significant changes. There is ample room for the front passengers with enough legroom and headroom to accommodate even taller passengers. However, when you move to the rear, you can't help but feel slightly cramped. It seems like Nissan has shoved all the space in the front and left the rear cabin to remain short on space. However, the cargo space of 15.4 cu-ft is ample enough for daily usage.

Compared to the Honda Accord which has the most spacious interior, the 2022 Nissan Altima stuffs all of the space in the front part of the cabin. The Toyota Camry strikes the middle ground in terms of interior space. The Hyundai Sonata also follows Nissan's approach of stuffing maximum space in the front part of the cabin. However, the 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system of the 2022 Nissan Altima will be getting some much-needed tech upgrades.
The infotainment system already comes with the Nissan Connect suite of connectivity. This includes Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, and WiFi. However, this year may mark the entry of newer connectivity tech. The sound system is pretty decent and does a great job at keeping the occupants immersed in the music. The following are some of the notable features of the infotainment setup of the 2022 Altima:
- 9-speaker sound system
- 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment
- Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- In-built navigation
- SiriusXM Satellite radio
- NissanConnect Services
