Close
Lotus is promoting Chinese executive Mao Jingbo to oversee UK and global operations after current Lotus Europe head Matt Windle was let go by the company, sources have told Autocar.
Windle is leaving after just four months as Lotus Europe CEO, a source told Autocar.
Windle's departure comes after Autocar reported that Lotus was considering moving sports car manufacturing out of the UK amid a wider cost-cutting drive aimed at overturning persistent losses that it would move manufacturing from its historic base in Hethel, Norfolk, after holding talks with the Labour government.
