NextEV NIO have appointed Gerry Hughes as the new team principal. Hughes had currently been Acting Team Principal and Chief Race Engineer of the team.
He is also taking up a new position of Head of Performance Programme for NIO. Hughes joined the team in 2015 as Chief Race Engineer. He was given the role of Acting Team Principal after the sad passing of Dr Martin Leach in November 2016.
Hughes assumes responsibilities on the NIO supercar programme. Already unveiled was the 1 MegaWatt EP9 supercar, which has set the fastest lap at the Nordschliefe.
Hughes said: “Taking on the role of project lead for both the Formula E team and EP9 supercar programmes will include new challenges for me, but they are challenges that my team and I relish. I must thank everyone at NIO for their support and confidence in me during this transitional period.
"I am extremely honoured that William Li and Lihong Qin have given me this opportunity and I will continue to work tirelessly to ensure that both programmes are a success going forwards.”
