MÉLINA PRIAM
FRANCE
L’Auto-Journal
French, a Parisian, but born in Provence and Italian at heart—because they’re the ones who make the most beautiful cars!
I fell under the spell of cars and motorsports at a fairly young age: I’ve been driving since I was 10. I started with go-karts, then moved on to single-seaters and race cars. This experience as an amateur driver naturally led me to find a career where I could spend my time driving: automotive journalism, of course.
And so, for the past 25 years, I’ve been test-driving cars. And telling stories about cars!
I love anything with an engine… preferably a combustion engine. But I also love electric cars because I care about the future of our planet.
Today, I’m in charge of and oversee the test drive section of L’Auto-Journal, a respected French magazine founded in 1950. But nothing is more exciting than driving and discovering new cars and heading out on the road for a feature story…
