We're thrilled to share some fantastic news: our tram, Škoda ForCity Smart Bonn, was recognised with the Red Dot Design Award in the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2024. It's truly a big moment for us, as this tram was recognised for its unique visual identity and state-of-the-art safety features, explicitly designed for Bonn, Germany. And what the jury said about the tram? “The ForCity Smart Bonn offers comfort to passengers with different needs, fitting well into the cityscape thanks to its exterior design.” The modern design of our ForCity Smart Bonn tram harmoniously blends with the city's historic vibe. Its distinctive light shaping on the black mask and upholstered wooden seats, designed for easy maintenance and longevity, are just a few of its standout features. The driver's cab, developed in collaboration with local drivers, meets the highest ergonomic and safety standards. “Our people have worked hard to ensure that every detail of the vehicle enhances the travel experience, not only in terms of its engineering but also in the way it fits in with Bonn's unique identity. And to be recognised with this award proves that we have succeeded," commented Laurent Fromont, our Senior Vice President Rolling Stock & Service Platforms. #SkodaGroup #RedDotAward #ForCitySmartBonn #DesignExcellence #ProudMoment #EngineeringSuccess #Safety
