LA Design Challenge 2008


All the entries submitted by nine Californian automotive design studios for the 5th edition of the Design Challenge, part of the 2008 Los Angeles Auto Show. The theme was to imagine futuristic racing cars for the year 2025.

LOS ANGELES – Oct. 20, 2008 – Today’s race cars have ground-breaking technology to improve speed, power, performance and safety but what a difference 17 years into the future can make.
The theme of the 2008 Design Challenge was to predict how auto racing will change by the year 2025, by imaging race cars that go beyond the expectations and challenges of today racing, such as never needing to stop for re-fueling or collision avoidance assistance technology for enhanced safety.Nine of Southern California’s automotive design studios (Audi, BMW, GM, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and Volkswagen) have participated exploring new ideas in automotive design.
