Hyundai Motor receives Red Dot design awards

MANILA, Philippines - Hyundai Motor received two Red Dot Product Design Awards for its recently-launched all-new Genesis and new generation i10 in the vehicles category. The internationally acclaimed Red Dot Awards recognize aesthetic form, innovation and ground-breaking ideas. The two Hyundai winners were chosen from an entry list of 4,815 products from 53 countries.

Byung Seob Lee, senior vice president at Hyundai Design Center, commented: “The Red Dot award is widely recognized as one of the world’s most prestigious design awards and to receive two is a real honor. Distinctive design is helping us attract new customers and develop strong connections with them. It is also the ultimate expression of what Hyundai offers – cars that are both good to drive and to look at. The All-New Genesis & Next Generation i10 introduce ‘Fluidic Sculpture 2.0’, Hyundai Motor’s evolved design philosophy, which will be featured in all future Hyundai models.”

This year’s influential Red Dot jury consisted of 37 experts from 24 countries, all independent qualified designers, university professors or journalists – and this year included design star Jimmy Choo for the first time. The selection of the Hyundai All-New Genesis and New Generation i10 marks the first Red Dot Design Award win for a production Hyundai model.

Hyundai new generation i10 features sleek and substantial lines which emphasize its naturally-athletic stance while all-new Genesis is defined by elegant proportions and clean lines that reflect its natural poise and superior driving dynamics.
