Jalopnik was founded in 2005 by Mike Spinelli, a man with a passion for cars and quirky writing. The idea for Jalopnik came from Spinelli's desire to create a comprehensive platform that would provide the latest industry news, purchasing advice, and reviews of business technology to car enthusiasts in a unique and engaging way. The name "Jalopnik" is a play on the word "jalopy," reflecting the site's focus on all things automotive. Today, Jalopnik is owned by G/O Media Inc., a media company that acquired the site in 2019 as part of a larger purchase from Univision.Jalopnik primarily covers news and information related to automobiles and the automotive industry. Their content includes car reviews, industry news, racing coverage, and cultural pieces about car enthusiasts. While based in the United States, Jalopnik serves a global audience of car lovers and industry professionals. The site has expanded its coverage to include topics like technology, environmental issues related to cars, and even some political news that intersects with the automotive world.**One interesting fact**: Jalopnik has a unique feature called "Nice Price or No Dice," where they present used car listings and ask readers to vote on whether the asking price is fair or not, creating an interactive community experience around car valuation.
Jalopnik is ranked N/A among other media sources and has an average of 11,580,000 monthly visits according to Similar Web.
