EXCLUSIVE: Mike Flewitt, the former CEO of McLaren Automotive, has been named as chairman of BAC, with plans for electrification and a future two-seater...

Talking new models, is there serious talk of a BAC two-seater?

"It’s a conversation we’ve had, but it’s not on the agenda. We’re aware that a road-going but track-focused single-seater as expensive as the Mono R is a pretty specialist product. "Its main emphasis is on providing incredible driving characteristics. But we wouldn’t rule out a two-seater, provided it could match the driving quality of existing cars."

You come from an ultra-high tech company making carbonfibre chassis and bespoke hybridised engines. The Mono R has neither. Will you press for higher tech in BAC’s next designs? "The powertrain and the chassis are areas we’re discussing, but BAC’s quality and driving standards are already among the highest anywhere. We’d have to be sure changes would improve the performance or customer appeal of our cars. We’ll always look very carefully at where we put our investment.""For sure.
