Sedans have a reputation for being a little vanilla. However, no other segment can offer the nimble handling and responsive steering that comes from driving a sedan. For drivers who like to put miles under their tires even where there is nowhere to go, a sedan is the clear choice.
The 2019 Toyota Camry is one of the most recognizable nameplates in the sedan segment, but does it live up to the hype? We sure think so. To prove it, we have put the 2019 Toyota Camry up against another top contender in the segment, the 2019 Nissan Altima, so you can see just how much the Camry has to offer. See how both models compare below!

When it comes to active safety, the Toyota Safety Sense bundle offered as a standard feature on most new Toyota models is hard to top. Though the 2019 Nissan Altima does offer a few active safety features on base models, they lack in comparison to the features offered on base 2019 Toyota Camrys. If active safety is a priority in your new sedan, the 2019 Toyota Camry is ultimately the better purchase.
The standard Toyota Safety Sense bundle includes Pre-Collision with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Automatic High Beams, and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control. In addition, moving up to higher trim levels in the Camry lineup will also reveal Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and a 360-degree camera system for safety at all angles.
All 2019 Nissan Altima models come standard with only two active safety features: intelligent forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking. After that, additional active safety doesn’t enter the lineup until the SV trim with a starting MSRP of $28,080 or above. Available active safety includes ProPilot Assist, Pedestrian Detection, Intelligent Lane Intervention, and a surround-view camera.
