We’ve got great news for fans of Apple products, because you can now get Britain’s biggest-selling weekly car magazine delivered straight to your iPad.
Our new digital app has been specifically designed to bring a new dimension to Auto Express, with extra pictures, exclusive-to-iPad video content and interactive page layouts that are bespoke to the iPad.
And of course, we still bring you everything you expect from your favourite car magazine. There's all the latest breaking car news, reviews, group tests and spy pictures of the newest models, as well as our extensive product reviews and expert used car buying advice.
You can download the Auto Express iPad edition from the iTunes App Store for £1.99 an issue. Alternatively, you can claim six issues in print and on your iPad for £1, and then pay just £22.99 every 13 issues - saving 82 per cent on the price.
We have exclusive images of the Porsche Macan, the new Range Rover Evoque rival that's set to be the hottest SUV in 2014. We also have a first drive of the new Porsche 918 Spyder and a ride in the Porsche Panamera hybrid. Plus, we get the inside line on a new Audi MPV and have spy photographs of a new Lexus crossover.
The BMW E30 M3, Audi Quattro and Vauxhall Astra GTE are all hero cars, but in this issue, we see if their legendary performance has stood the test of time by pitting them against some more mundane modern machinery, with exclusive video for the iPad.
We reveal the best car care kit and accessories from the past year in the Auto Express Product Awards 2013. We also name our Product of the Year.
We love the added value that the iPad brings to what we do, but as always we’re keen to hear what you think. Please leave your feedback on the App Store by giving it a star rating or writing a full review. We'll be constantly improving the app as the weeks go by, and your feedback is invaluable for this.

don`t have a ipad so don`t care.....got to say ipad/android other wise you missing most of the market
Please make an app for Android as well
Where's the Android pad app?
Only works on iOS 6 so I can't be installed on the original iPad!
the new app is much better than the old format.
Great redesign.
There is a serious problem with the new App. If you are stupid enough to open the Jag advert, you cannot get out of it. Even if you try and come out by pressing the home button on the iPad and go back in via newsstand, it goes straight back to the page you were in on the Jag advert. Pretty infuriating and ended my browsing.
Fantastic news, l have just brought a new i-pad, now l can read my favourite car mag on it. I will download it and leave some feedback.
No I dont But if autoexpress requires my services I am an iOS/android contractor:). The old magazine version was almost a pdf of the printed version.
This menus on this one are well laid out.
The design is clean, and I managed to get around without scrolling through out the whole thing back and forth.
Dunno what is your problem with it, but as magazines goes in the ipad the new one works really well for me. Btw i have a new ipad so I dont have no lag issues or nothing.
The only minor problem i found with the app is the horizontal scroll (change page) only works if i do a deliberate slide movement when there is no scrollbar (on the side of the page).
Otherwise like I said it works really well.
I haven't clicked on the ads so i cant say if get the issues that others report.
See I have tried evo which was pretty much like a pdf and for that reason i prefer to get the print version.
What issues/critics people have here with the new version, they should be clear about it and specific so the fellas at autoexpress can fix it. i am quite happy.
Poor you
Android version should be with you early next year.
I REALLY don't like the new format & prefer the Pixlemags format which mirrored the actual magazine. The new format has also got rid of the car stats pages at the back. If I could go back to the old version I would as I can't see me buying the new one in its current format which is a shame as I have been buying this magazine for years. It has also lost all of my previously brought copies. Seriously a large step backwards!
Totally agree! A real move backwards.
I wanted to give the new formate a go, but got so fed up with it, that I have to confess I have just given up now. I won't be subscribing to the mag through the new app - I'm going to stay with pixel.
The new version has totally lost the 'magazine' feel! It's now more like a poorly designed website!
Sorry fellas at AE.
Grumble chops how did you get the pixel mags app back? I had to delete mine to down load the new version
I have been reading the mag version for years and like the layout, just been giving iTunes vouchers for my birthday and thought I would take out an annual iPad subscription. However having downloaded the new format I am very disappointed as it looks more like a manufactures Information page than the original magazine, please go back to the original as I for one will not be buying the iPad version, sorry!
As a magazine subscriber, does that also entitle me to a free ipad edition subscription?
Well its early this year, so wheres the Android app you promised?
Hmm why is my post not showing up??
So its "early next year" wheres our Android app?
Hi Andy,
We're afraid that the comment you're referring to wasn't posted by our editor - it was just a hoax.
We would love to launch an Android app, but we don't want to rush is - especially when we can use feedback on the iPad app to make sure what we launch is as good as it possibly can be.
Our developers tell us that the Android app will launch in the first half of this year, though, which isn't too long to wait?
Hope this helps,
Auto Express
P.S. We can see both of your comments on the page - hopefully you can, too?
Yes it is actually. Apps should be released together on all platforms. I was ready to spend my money on a subscription, guess I shall stick to the freebies on here and spend my money on someone who does have an app for my platform.
Ps: Yeah can see them now cheers.
Where is the Android App?
You have bought not brought an iPad.
Still no Android app - rubbish
Has anyone done the maths here? £22.99 for 13 issues is £1.77 per issue against £1.99 buying them one by one. How does that equate to an 82% saving on the price??
If I remember correctly, the Android platform has a greater market share than Apple's, am I right? So why would auto express give priority to the iPad? Are they Apple fan boys or do the numbers support their decision?
You are correct yes but only when refering to the OS. iOS has less than 20% of the mobile market share while Android has over 70%. The ipad is still the leading tablet but only by a couple of percent and everyone in the tech world knows that by the end of Q2 this will in fact be a lead for android.
Well its now mid year and still no Android app. Come on NME are you ever going to do it?
