Before I started the Autocade website (I had been using the name prior as the motoring section of Lucire in print), I blogged about the BYD F0, or F1 as it was originally called. I called them out on the very obvious piracy—this was a Toyota Aygo clone—and BYD even went as far as to… Read More »Same old BYD?
Exactly two months since we cracked 42 million page views, we’re now on 43 million on the main site (15,364,474 plus 27,647,011 on the previous installation totals 43,011,485). We’re also serving 337,430 unique visitors per month there at the time of writing, though I noted in private correspondence we had cracked 300,000 during May. This… Read More »Autocade reaches 43 million page views

The reasons for the form’s removal are here, and we haven’t found a replacement that we can easily install. So in the interests of hearing… Read More »Open forum: over to you

For the latest edition, he writes on Linkedin: ‘The second annual edition of Autocade has just arrived, conceived and published by my friend Jack Yan and Lucire. In the great tradition of automotive annuals, Autocade is… Read More »Year of Cars 2025, as endorsed by Giles Chapman
Here’s where you can add your thoughts about Autocade Year of Cars 2025: what you liked about it, what you’d like to see more of, and what you’d want to see less of.
Thanks to the positive press coverage in Octane (see their March 2025 number here), for which we are extremely grateful, the main Autocade site has reached its latest million-page milestone in two months, two days. Now over 41 million page views have been served, and that’s after blocking the “AI” bots that inflated our count… Read More »Autocade reaches 41 million page views
