The Jury of the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este in Italy, presented the award for the most beautiful concept car of the year to Laurens van den Acker, Groupe Renault’s Senior Vice President of Corporate Design for the Trezor. The Trezor had previously won Concept Car of the Year at the International Automobile Festival in Paris and Concept Car of the Year at the Geneva Car Design Awards from a panel of top car designers.
The prestigious Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este has been held since 1929 on the shores of Lake Como in Italy. The annual event attracts car enthusiasts and collectors who come from across the world to celebrate automobiles as precious and timeless works of art.
To enter in the prototypes and concept cars category, Trezor had to meet a set of rigorous selection criteria as a working concept car with high-quality and original styling. Trezor ticked all the boxes. The concept car showcases the design cues of future Renault models and is powered by an all-electric motor derived from the world of Formula E with maximum power of 350hp and peak torque of 380Nm.
