One bit of news we passed over on the way out the door of COBO Hall on Tuesday was the winners of this year’s EyesOn Design Awards at the 2008 Detroit Auto Show. There are four awards given away each year, including Best Concept and Production Car and Best Concept and Production Truck. Cadillac sweeped the car side of things with the CTS-V being honored as Best Production Car and the CTS Coupe Concept named as the Best Concept Car. The BMW X6, meanwhile, was named Best Production Truck and the Chrysler ecoVoyager Concept nabbed the Best Concept Truck award.

The EyesOn Design awards are sponsored by the Detroit Institute of Opthamology and judged by a panel of automotive designers including ex-VP of Design for GM Wayne Cherry, Chrysler’s Senior VP of Design Trevor Creed, the renowned Henrik Fisker, GM’s VP of Global Design Ed Welburn and Mazda’s Franz von Holzhausen.
