Title: Deputy editor

Felix is Autocar's deputy editor, which means he spends as much time stressing about sending pages to the printers as he does finessing web headlines, interviewing car company bosses and driving new cars.

With responsibility for leading the brand's agenda-shaping coverage across all facets of the global automotive industry, Felix has interviewed the most powerful and widely respected people in motoring, covered the reveals and launches of today's most important cars, and broken some of the biggest automotive stories of the last few years. 

Felix also heads up content creation for industry title Autocar Business, contributes regularly to the new-car reviews section and writes in-depth feature stories on a wide range of subjects. 

Felix is an expert in:

  • Global car industry news
  • New cars
  • Used cars
  • Executive interviews
  • New car reviews
  • Electric cars and alternative fuels

Felix Page Q&A

What was your biggest news story?

I haven’t written it yet. There have been a good few scoops that got me really excited, but the best stories tend to come from off-diary, backstage chats with the people on the frontlines - and I look back most fondly on these: Alpine CEO Laurent Rossi told me about his plans for a hydrogen hypercar in a trailer behind the pits in Silverstone and Audi’s chief designer let slip his vision for an electric Defender rival over a coffee, for example. But some of the best headlines are simply the well-worded opinions of those in the know. 

What’s the best car you’ve ever driven?

In light of how complex and expensive the average car has become, Dacia’s back-to-basics Jogger feels like a breath of sensibly priced fresh air - and puts in a good shift on challenging roads, too. At the other end of the scale, if I had to pick one car for the rest of my life, I can think of nothing more appropriate than the intoxicatingly ferocious but surprisingly capacious BMW M3 Touring

What will the car industry look like in 20 years?

Even more fiercely competitive, but in different ways. We will have achieved peak efficiency (or close to it) across all drivetrain technologies, and manufacturers will have settled on the quickest, cheapest and most sustainable methods of building cars - so the battles will largely centre on simply providing the best proposition for the customer: Which car has the best interior? Which car communicates best with your smart home? Which can drive itself the best…? I doubt we’ll be making much fuss about exhaust notes and slick manual gearshifts, mind.
