Driven magazine seems quite focussed on occupying the gap in the men's market left by
Toro magazine. Within a month of the latter's demise, the magazine' editor, Michael LaFave, says it has expanded its circulation by 50%, including going controlled to more
Globe and Mail customers (
Toro, too, was carried by the
Globe) and through Air Canada Maple Leaf lounges. In both instances, it moves into space previously occupied by
Toro. According to
a story in
Media in Canada, the distribution is now 150,000, of which 130,000 are in the
Globe, 10,000 with Air Canada and a 10,000 draw on newsstands.
The magazine has also substantially redesigned (something that must have been in the works prior to
Toro's demise) with an expansion of its upfront Essentials section. (An interesting wrinkle: (you can
see it online) is that James Hunter, the editor of the Essentials section gets a huge credit on the opening page and an asterisk indicates to readers the individual stories he edited, apparently.)

Design is wanting.
