Critical Reception
Game Informer gave Motor Mayhem scores of 6 and 7. Kato, who gave the higher score regretted the lack on on-line multiplayer but did enjoy the combo-based weapon system. Andy MacNamara wrote, "...there are a lot of things about this game that I enjoyed while playing it, like the graphics and some insane weapons, but I just couldn't stop thinking about how much I would rather be player [Twisted Metal] Black If you must have two car combat games, this game will entertain".
