The Mundy Award for Engineering recognises outstanding contributions to the automotive industry. Named after Harry Mundy, an engine designer who was also a staff writer for Autocar, the award is normally handed to a prominent engineer. Renault’s Philippe Krief, Nissan’s David Moss and GMA founder Gordon Murray are among the previous winners.
This year, given the team effort behind it, its excellence and its potential significance, our winner is BMW’s Neue Klasse architecture, for the meaningful developments and progress it has made in the electric car world, while still allowing BMWs to drive like BMWs.
