Ferrari’s 488 GTB has won the Red Dot ‘Best of the Best’ award for its design and innovative lines.
The most recent plaudits for the Ferrari Style Centre comes after it recently picked up several IF Design Awards in Munich, Germany, at the start of the month. On the latter occasion, the big winner was the FXX K (Red Dot Best of the Best 2015) which took home the Gold Award, the Hannover institute’s top prize. However, the 488 GTB and 488 Spider also scored a double whammy at the same event with a Design Excellence Award apiece.
