Independent studies put up by Brand Magazine show that auto enthusiasts (defined as those that purchase more than one auto magazine in a single year) comprise less than 10% of the total auto-owning population. This means that a huge percentage of local auto owners have an inclination for cars, but find auto-centric publications too complex to understand – and therefore prefer to read lifestyle publications.
