How to pitch automotive journalists
Automotive reporters cover new vehicles, EVs, mobility, motorsport, dealerships and the parts supply chain. They want drive opportunities, specs and prices, and clear comparisons with rival models.
- Put specs, price and availability in the first lines. Car journalists check them before reading on.
- Test drives and loan cars earn more coverage than any release.
- Trade titles cover suppliers and dealer news that the consumer press ignores.
