Powerlite teams up with the HCVA

We are immensely proud to be part of the newly formed Historic & Classic Vehicles Alliance a new, powerful voice for everyone who has an interest in protecting the future of classic and historic vehicles.

The HCVA have a simple message – to build a broad base of membership from across the industry, owners and the public, creating a launching pad to engage decision makers and address those in power to ensure there is a viable future for all.

The figures for our industry are mind boggling – there are over 3 million classic cars still on the road and the industry generates more than £18 billion per year whilst employing over 113,000 people.

And we need to celebrate what we are good at. At a time of national identity crisis, let’s recognise the skills that we have in the industry, the legacy of the cars that we have built and the innovation that once made Great Britain the world leader in car design and production.

Powerlite were asked to be involved due to our longstanding involvement in classic rotating electrics – we have been remanufacturing since the early 1970’s and are now the biggest supplier of classic car starters, alternators and dynamos in the UK.

We are also home to the Powerlite range of upgraded units, designed specifically to improve and enhance the experience of classic motoring.
