Car Design Award

Founded in Turin in 1984 and reborn in 2016 after a break of almost two decades, the Car Design Award (organized by Auto&Design magazine) is widely considered to be the most coveted and prestigious accolade in the sector. The aim of the award has always been to celebrate cars and concepts that mark a turning point, a new departure for the future of transportation design. An international jury made up of representatives of some of the most prestigious world automotive magazines is a guarantee of its competence and authoritativeness.

While keeping its traditional organisation unchanged, the reborn Car Design Award also proposes important changes. The two historic categories that reward production and concept cars are joined by a third: an award to the design team that has worked best to maintain the consistency and transversality of the brand’s formal language over the entire product range.
