ABOUT
EyesOn Design Awards
at the North American International Auto Show 2013
In its seventh year, the EyesOn Design Awards honors the best production and concept cars making their North American or worldwide debut at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. Keeping with the spirit of other EyesOn Design events, the EyesOn Design Awards are selected by active and retired design heads of automotive OEMs, transportation design chairs from top art schools, and designers from other fields.
The NAIAS press preview is bookended by two awards shows. The press preview begins with the North American Car and Truck of the Year and is completed by our show, EyesOn Design Awards. The EyesOn Design Awards is recognized by each automaker as a validation of its work by its peers, and it is covered each year by the automotive, national, and international press.
