FIND OUT MORE ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY For the last two decades, Prodrive has transferred its skills and agile approach to developing innovative engineering solutions for businesses in the automotive, aerospace, marine and other industry sectors. Today you will find us working on ground-breaking projects for leading vehicle manufacturers, such as the creation of the first electric hybrid Transit van for Ford; electrically-powered fuelling systems for the world’s largest commercial jet engines; the most advanced active aero systems; and luxury interior systems for executive chauffeur-driven cars. We have developed a particular technical specialism in electric and hybrid vehicles, as well as electro-hydraulic and electro-mechanical actuation systems. But beyond our broad technical capability, what brings our clients to us, is our ability to accelerate the development process by taking their ideas to proof of concept and on to the prototype stage far quicker than they could ever do themselves. FIND OUT MORE OUR BUSINESS Prodrive was founded by its current chairman, David Richards in 1984. Initially a small team of a dozen people running a rally programme for Porsche, the company has grown in the last three decades to become not only one of the most respected names in motorsport, but also an advanced technology business. Today it employs nearly 500 staff in the UK and has four distinct but interconnected businesses: COMPOSITES We design and manufacture advanced lightweight composites for a wide range of applications on the road, in the air and at sea – across automotive, motorsport, aerospace, marine, defence and other specialist sectors.
