Game Informer Magazine
I do have some reservations, however. Graphically, the game is plagued by some slight slowdown and major collision bugs. Sometimes your car goes right through textures and obstacles. Also, the art direction and visual look of the game falls well below what was accomplished in Crazy Taxi. Overall, it’s just not as polished. Despite these minor gripes, I would highly recommend this game to fans of the genre.

Gamer's Pulse
For players of the racing genre who want a great laugh and the ability to destroy anything and sometimes everything, Super Runabout is for you. If you can overlook the minor gameplay bugs and enjoy the comical quality of the game, you will find the game appealing and entertaining if nothing else.

Okay, es stimmt: Auch die PAL-Version beleidigt den technisch ambitionierten Spieler mit hässlichen Groß-Pop-Ups, Polygon-Fehlern wie Zäunen oder Ampeln aus Luft und einer schwammigen Steuerung. Aber wisst ihr was: Es macht trotzdem Laune, durch ein lebendig animiertes und mit vielen Details ausstaffiertes San Francisco zu brettern und dabei total freakige und abwechslungsreiche Aufträge mit coolen Gefährten vom Dreirad bis zum Panzer zu erledigen. Hot Dogs sammeln, Cable Cars rammen, rasante Verfolgungsjagten absolvieren - es ist ständig die Hölle los an Kaliforniens Küste. Schaut unbedingt mal rein!

The Video Game Critic
It sounds like Crazy Taxi, but Runabout's physics are more realistic and less forgiving. Many vehicles handle very poorly, but you can build up some serious speed on the straight-aways. You have the option of viewing a replay after each mission, and unlike most games, they're actually a lot of fun to watch! The audio is probably the weakest aspect of the game. The folksy background music loops ad nauseum, and some of the cars sound more like vacuum cleaners. Super Runabout lacks the polish and addictiveness of Crazy Taxi, but it isn't a bad title if you can pick it up for a reasonable price.

Un concept original pour le fun qu'il véhicule mais la réalisation, le gameplay et la technique le font échouer, très loin d'un Crazy Taxi.

Super Runabout aurait pu être un titre qui aurait su, à grands coups de volant, enrichir le genre course/action assez pauvre sur Dreamcast. Au lieu de cela, une jouabilité désastreuse et plusieurs défauts graphiques rendent ce titre injouable et réservé à une clientèle d'accros de la démolition urbaine et routière.
