Ferrari 12Cilindri wins Car Design Award 2025

MILAN: The Ferrari 12Cilindri has been awarded the prestigious Car Design Award, a coveted recognition in the automotive design sector.

The award ceremony, attended by Flavio Manzoni (Ferrari Chief Design Officer) representing the Prancing Horse, took place in Milan at the ADI Design Museum during the Milan Design Week.

The Car Design Award was established in 1984 and is aimed at projects that have significantly contributed to the evolution of automotive design.

The winners of the Car Design Award have always been selected by a jury of experts, representatives of the most prestigious automotive publications at international level.

Five Ferraris have received awards in the Production Cars category since 1984: the first was the Testarossa in 1985, followed by the Ferrari Roma in 2020, the 296 GTB in 2022, and the Ferrari Purosangue in 2023.

The Prancing Horse Design team won the prestigious award in the same year in the Brand Design Language category.

The ADI jurors chose the 12Cilindri because “the design of the 12Cilindri encapsulates the historical essence of the Ferrari V12s of the Fifties and Sixties, revisited and taking into account the aerodynamic requirements that today are a science and no longer just an intuition.

An indissoluble link with tradition that looks to the future and has led this project to unite two souls, sportiness and elegance, to create an out-of-the-box icon.”
