Honda Urban EV Concept named ‘Best Concept Car’ by global judging panel

An international panel of automobile experts has named the Honda Urban EV Concept as ‘The Best Concept Car’ in the renowned 2018 Car Design Award honours, presented today as part of the Turin Motor Show.

Organised by Auto & Design magazine, the Car Design Award finalists and winners are selected and judged by a jury comprised of 12 automotive journalists from the world’s most prestigious publications.



The Honda Urban EV Concept was named as a finalist in April this year, and was subsequently chosen as the overall concept car winner against nine other vehicle designs. Global recognition in the Car Design Award follows the Urban EV Concept’s success in being named as Automobile magazine’s 2018 Concept of the Year in January.

Honda revealed the Urban EV Concept at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show.



The milestone design sets the direction for Honda’s first battery electric for Europe, which will be introduced during late 2019 with a simple and sophisticated appearance that contrasts with the advanced technology that powers the car.
