Jaguar C-X75 wins luxurious award

The Jaguar C-X75 has received the Louis Vuitton Classic Concept Award 2010. The concept car was chosen by a jury composed of some of the biggest personalities in the world of design, fashion and luxury.

The concept car that amazed everyone at last year’s Paris Motor Show beat the whole competition, being chosen by the Louis Vuitton panel.

“Ian Callum, Jaguar’s design director, and his team have achieved not only a beautiful design in clothing a world-premiere and mouth-watering technology, but also a true Jaguar, projecting the brand’s DNA into the future without an ounce of nostalgia,” said Christian Philippsen renowned automotive consultant and inaugurator of the prize.

The illustrious members of the jury include author Serge Bellu, Louis Vuitton’s Director of Innovation Xavier Dixsaut, McLaren F1 designer Gordon Murray, former Porsche design head Harm Lagaaij and journalist Masafumi Suzuki.

The C-X75 was a concept car built for the celebration of 75th anniversary of Jaguar and combined the design with the technology of the future.

“It’s fantastic for us to be recognised by the world of fashion with this award,” said Ian Callum, Design Director for Jaguar. “We’re at our best when we’re breaking the mould - making our cars stand out for all the right reasons.”
