Variety - Unnamed
For sheer inventiveness of situation and the charm that such an idea projects, The Love Bug rates as one of the better entries of the Disney organization.

TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
The entire cast give standout performances, but Herbie steals the show in this well-directed, funny picture.
70
Time Out - Unnamed
Herbie and his plucky stunt drivers steal the show in this agreeable family entertainment.
50
The New York Times - Vincent Canby
Such a vulnerable movie that if it were a little less sappy, one might feel compelled to protect it, as if it were someone under 7 or over 65 -- that portion of the public for which it is intended.

Empire - Ian Nathan
The first of the silly VW Beetle with a cute personality comedies, is as childish dated and occasionally sweet as the others.
