CarBuzz - Car News and Reviews

I love this app, love love love this app, as a car guy this is a wonderful mix of suv hyper and classic car news, but there is one thing that I would really like to see. Comments. I would really love for the developers to hear what we have to say and that is important, and the writers don’t even have to see the comments, but making a little side not of what we think of the new ford escort or Chevy blazer would make a huge difference in the app, like talking to other people on your opinions on the car. That is what I want and would love to see it added. Other than that this is the app I use the most on my phone and will use it for the rest of my life.

I have had it ... tried it carbuzz again ... same amateur writing clickbbait and upworthy titles, you won’t guess what is next ........ This is final. Deleted FOREVER. (edit) it just keeps getting worse and worse - with childish amateur blog style “ questions “, “ opinions “, “ advice” for Ferrari and other top 0.1% % vehicle owners ... >> voting down further — will stop reading and delete the app — In recent weeks it has become very frustrating and tiring to read, up-worthy clickbait titles (you won’t believe, x will have one crucial fix, y owners must read this, ... ) , negative opinion piece after negative opinion piece, all simply because the author dislikes something or another ... bunches of short articles with images that don’t apply ...... stick to AUTO NEWS, stop writing personal opinion pieces, tearing down brands, vehicles, etc. when those brands or vehicles are perfectly acceptable. Very unprofessional and downright amateuristic writing at times, like school kids are trying to play newspaper or car magazine. And fix the comments! Fix the half a dozen unreadable grey bubbles with grey text and put ALL comments in 1 single thread / bubble.

I’ve been a long time user of CarBuzz now, for the last 4-5 years, and have seen it change quite a lot over time. While it may not be the best option for automotive news out there, I love that there is a consistent release of articles on a daily basis, along with an interesting community that you can communicate through with the comments section. It does have its faults, like the occasional grammar error, or recycled articles about the same car over and over, but I’ve really enjoyed this app over the years, and think it’s a solid place to get the latest car news from.

Lately most of the news is 90% super cars, as in cars over $100k. I'm never going to buy a car for that much. I'd like to see more stories about cars that actually get purchased by 99% of the population. It's getting to the point where none of the news is actually informative to a buyer, only dreamers. Genesis still isn’t one of the car brands listed, after a year of existence!?! Kia stinger isn’t even shown as a car Kia makes after a year of highly anticipated news. Most new cars from 2017 have 3 photos. Pathetic upkeep of the app. Who cares about Bentley? They are ugly cars that none buys! Show me cars under $80k, that I might actually consider buying.

Another update. Down to one star. Images do not download. Reading about cars needs to include images. Where the image should be is a “carbuzz” place holder with “images downloading.” If I use safari, the images are all there. What’s the point of having an app if the browser experience is better? If you want to read carbuzz’s content, just use a browser. Update: landscape is back on iPad. But the app on the iPad is just a larger version of the iPhone app. The old design was better. Still, since landscape is supported again, 2 stars. Sorry, but this app is lame. The comments are rude, sometimes hateful and almost always juvenile. No landscape on the iPad was the last straw. Using mobile safari is a much better experience. Oh, and why the focus on so called “super” cars? How many of your readers are spending 6 figures on a car?
