Halcyon Supercharges EV Ambitions with Former McLaren CEO Mike Flewitt
These new appointments commercial and brand-building expertise supports the founders’ vision to unlock next-generation electrification for global automotive, marine, and defence vehicle manufacturers pursuing a zero-emission future.
Halcyon has made three new appointments to its advisory board, former McLaren Automotive chief operating officer Mike Flewitt and ex-Rolls-Royce directors Graham Biggs and Graham Lenden, to support the founding team.
The new appointments will support Halcyon’s expansion and support commercialisation of its proprietary 800-V electric architecture through Evice Technologies, Halcyon’s new tech division.
A funding round is currently in progress to increase Halcyon’s production capacity in response to international demand, while bringing its proprietary innovations to broader markets.
Matthew Pearson, chief executive officer of Halcyon & Evice Technologies, said: “Mike Flewitt, Graham Biggs, and Graham Lenden join us at the perfect time, as we expand to meet Halcyon and Evice Technologies’ demand, serving clients around the world.”
Flewitt has worked in the automotive industry as an executive and the former chief operating officer of McLaren Automotive prior to this appointment.
Flewitt, advisor at Halcyon & Evice Technologies, added: “As a former Rolls-Royce and Bentley director, I was deeply impressed by the quality and execution of Halcyon’s stunning remastered Rolls-Royces and Bentleys, with impressive enhancements to the classic attributes across the entire car.”
Previously global corporate communications director at Rolls-Royce motor cars, Biggs led the brand’s global relaunch before spending 16 years as corporate communications director on the board of BMW Group UK, overseeing eight UK & Ireland entities and the global debut of MINI.
Lenden held key roles at Bentley Motors and Aston Martin Lagonda before becoming Rolls-Royce’s global chief marketing officer. He led the immensely successful Rolls-Royce Ghost launch, Graham plays an important role in the development of Evice Technologies, supporting its expansion as a provider of proprietary EV tech.
