Edge described Motorhead as "something of an enigma, existing somewhere between Wipeout and Ridge Racer."[1] The magazine praised its distinctive setting and addictive gameplay, but criticized its difficulty and short number of tracks.[1] Chris Gregson of GameSpot wrote, "If you like pure speed seasoned with good graphics, this is one you definitely don't want to miss."[2]
