TMR: Australia’s fastest growing independent automotive news site
- “Automotive news as it happens”

In case the penny hasn’t dropped, our passion is cars, motorcycles and everything to do with the motor industry.

We live it and breathe it, it runs in our blood.

It is also evident in you, our readers. That is why we work so hard at bringing you all of the latest news from around the automotive world - accurate, interesting, sometimes quirky - 24 hours of the day. And we invite you to get involved through the comments.

We also work hard at bringing you reliable, expert views on the cars we road test. Our writers, collectively, bring years of professional road testing experience, track experience and deep industry and technical knowledge to the task.

As an independent news site, you can rely on our reviews for straight-shooting, fair-dinkum appraisals. We call each as we see it – no favouritism, no ‘advertising-dollar’ influenced opinions, and nothing omitted that should be included.

BEST DRIVE: BEST VALUE Awards

As a site for keen drivers, for readers who value the experience at the wheel, we’ve created an annual vehicle award - The Motor Report’s BEST DRIVE: BEST VALUE Award - granted to the car (and runners up) in each category, that, in the view of our road testers and writers, wins on a ‘best drive, best value’ comparison.

Instituted for the first time New Year’s Eve 2008, this award is to be conferred annually.

“If a car is not good value, if it does not make you feel good when you slide behind the wheel, if it does not bring a smile to your face when driving, then it will not get a look-in to TMR’s BEST DRIVE: BEST VALUE Award.”

Additionally, we provide expert ‘behind the news’ analysis.

With an editorial team with deep industry experience and involvement, we work hard at keeping you across what is happening in the boardrooms and back-rooms of the industry.
