John Manoogian II is an industrial designer, adjunct faculty member, automotive industry expert and automobile designer — widely known for his nearly 33-year career with General Motors,[3] where he designed for the company's Chevrolet, Pontiac, Saturn, Buick, Oldsmobile and Cadillac divisions.
At Cadillac, Manoogian's work spanned from the hastily conceived and oft-derided Cimarron to the second generation Cadillac CTS Coupe, winner of the Motor Trend Car of the Year, Best Concept Car Design & Best Vehicle Design award at the 2008 North American International Auto Show,[4] as well as the production and concept categories at EyesOn Design, an event judged by noted vehicle designers.[4]
After General Motors, Manoogian has served on the faculty at the College of Creative Studies as well as Design Director with Quadrobot Corporation, developers of a last mile, autonomous electric delivery vehicle.
