“Autoblog has been a go-to resource for me and countless others for years,” said Edward. “It’s a privilege to lead this iconic brand into its next chapter, building on its legacy of insightful reviews, breaking news, and unique commerce deals while expanding its reach and modernizing its approach.”

Since The Arena Group’s acquisition, Autoblog has experienced a surge in traffic, with a more than 120% increase in users and page views between September and November 2024. Notably, user engagement is exceptionally high.

“We are committed to investing in Autoblog and building on its already strong foundation,” said Arena Group CEO, Sara Silverstein. “Our success with brands like Men’s Journal, Parade, Athlon Sports, Surfer, and Powder demonstrates our ability to revitalize and grow established media properties. In 2025, we plan to further enhance Autoblog with expanded video content and a relaunch of the Autoblog YouTube channel.”

Audience Demographics and Interests:

More than 80% of Autoblog’s audience is based in North America. Readers are not only passionate about cars, but are also demonstrating strong interest in related categories including finance/investing, real estate and technology. This demographic makes Autoblog a valuable outlet for advertisers and content partners.
