Jack Rix

Jack is Editor of TopGear Magazine and a car journalist with over 15 year’s experience of driving, writing about and presenting videos on… you guessed it… cars. After miraculously achieving a first class degree in Automotive Engineering from Leeds University, and distinction in his Automotive Journalism Masters degree at Coventry University, he launched into an eight-year stint cutting his teeth at weekly car mag and website Auto Express. He joined TopGear as Deputy Editor in 2015.
 
Jack’s writing and presenting covers an expanse of topics: road testing everything from superminis to supercars, deep-dive first looks, interviews with the biggest names in the car business and adventures in far-flung corners of the globe. Jack is an EV pioneer – he has a home charging point installed despite not having off-street parking, but is yet to trip anyone up. He’s the 2022 Newspress Editor of the year, and was nominated for the same award in the BSME and PPAs, but cruelly overlooked. Oh well, there’s always next year.
