"This year’s entries demonstrated a wide range of innovative solutions to meet the weight reduction challenges of modern automotive design," said judging chair Dr. Jay Baron, President and CEO of CAR, and director of CAR’s Coalition for Automotive Lightweighting Materials. “Jaguar Land Rover, Dow Automotive Systems and all our 2014 nominees are contributing to reductions in weight, fuel consumption, and emissions. The Enlighten Award is an excellent way to highlight these achievements.”

Jaguar Land Rover and Dow Automotive Systems were presented with the awards during the “Featherweight Competition: Agile, Light, and Strong” session of the 2014 CAR Management Briefing Seminars (MBS) today in Traverse City, Michigan.

The Altair Enlighten Award is intended to honor the greatest achievements in weight savings each year; to inspire interest from industry, engineering, policymakers, educators, students and the public; to create further competition for new ideas in the industry; and to provide an incentive to share technological advances.
