Ryan Hirons
Assistant Producer
Ryan started his motoring career in 2017 with PA Media, road testing everything from family hatchbacks to sports cars and covering industry news in between.
In 2021, he made the move to Carwow, first reporting on the news desk but now as part of the reviews team. On a day-to-day basis, he’s helping tie together video shoots and writing up some of the reviews you’ll find across the website.
Outside of work, he’s got an obsession with old Japanese cars (especially those with a Skyline badge on) and Gran Turismo, plus anything with an anti-social exhaust note.
Beyond cars, he’s a die-hard fan of Liverpool, making being Northern a personality trait, and Dua Lipa, in case she’s reading this.
