The 2023 Car Design Award’s winner announcement ceremony and the delivery of the trophies made by Brembo, partner of the event, will be held on Tuesday, April 18, 2023 at the ADI Design Museum in Milan, during the Milan Design Week 2023.
Maximillian Missoni, head of Polestar design, collected the Car Design Award 2022 for the Brand Design Language category. The ceremony took place at the ADI Design Museum in Milan on June 10 in the presence of Silvia Baruffaldi, editor Auto&Design, Riccardo Baldo (Academic Director of the IED Group, technical partner of the event) and Alberto Ferrari, Brand and Marketing Manager of Brembo, in charge of designing the trophies.
This is the jury’s motivation for the Polestar brand: “At Polestar everything has a practical meaning, beyond looking for beauty. In addition to the clean, elegant and futuristic style, its projects also reveal concern for the planet and sustainability. The design team has found a distinguished and engaging personality within the premium electrified environment, thanks to a consistent and attractive design language”.

Flavio Manzoni, head of Ferrari design, collected the Car Design Award 2022 for the 296 GTB, a model that leads the Production Cars category. The ceremony took place at the ADI Design Museum in Milan on June 10 in the presence of Silvia Baruffaldi, editor Auto&Design, Riccardo Baldo (Academic Director of the IED Group, technical partner of the event) and Alberto Ferrari, Brand and Marketing Manager of Brembo, in charge of designing the trophies.
This is the jury’s motivation for the Ferrari 296 GTB: “Creating such a beautiful and organic shape while respecting all current regulations and at the same time equipping the car with technology and performance of the highest level is truly impressive. The influence of the legendary racing sports cars of the 1960s is found in the Ferrari 296 GTB and the end result is a grand contemporary interpretation of a classic design language”.

All the design details are meant to express all-terrain credentials in a contemporary shape. A rugged and modern utilitarian product that is also desirable, a hard feat to achieve”.
