User Reviews

MotorTrend offers strong automotive news and a growing library, including magazines, and many users enjoy the content when the app works. However, frequent and widespread issues undermine the value: popular shows like Roadkill have been canceled, on-demand viewing is limited, and updates have removed features and caused bugs. Users also report difficult cancellation, subscription concerns, and streaming/reliability problems. The core content is praised, but usability, access, and content strategy frustrations dominate.

Pros

Nice automotive news
Amazing way to stay connected and updated with the car world
Updated content library includes Hot Rod magazines plus 27 other magazines
Love it (when it works)

Cons

Roadkill and other popular shows canceled/removed
Content is largely scheduled/on-demand viewing is not possible (no easy way to watch what you want)
Recent updates removed features (search, favorites) and introduced bugs (app instability, audio echo)
Difficulty canceling subscription / perceived poor value
Streaming reliability issues and perceived corporate greed (content moved to off-peak hours)

Recent reviews

Stopped working, won't load the front page anymore. Cleared cache and uninstalled/reinstalled to no avail. App is now useless. Using Galaxy S25 ultra so not the device.
