SINGAPORE, February 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Strutt, a pioneer in intelligent personal mobility, today announces that its flagship vehicle, the Strutt ev¹, has been recognized with the prestigious iF Design Award. This distinction once again confirms the company’s technological leadership and accelerates its commercial momentum, by reopening additional pre-order slots following the rapid exhaustion of its initial pre-order allocation.
Recognized since 1954 as a global symbol of creative excellence, the iF label is awarded by an independent jury composed of 129 international experts in design and sustainable development. The ev¹ was selected through a rigorous evaluation of more than 10,000 applications from 68 countries. This win recognizes innovators who dare to challenge conventions, rethink systems, and give everyday experiences meaningful impact – a philosophy that aligns with Strutt’s design mission.
This latest honor adds to Strutt’s rapidly expanding portfolio of industry-leading recognitions, which includes the 2026 CES Innovation Award and the coveted 2025 Red Dot: Luminary. This winning streak represents a powerful consensus within the global technology and design communities on the commercial viability of ev¹ and its market-defining potential.
The ev¹ disrupts today’s market by introducing intelligent vehicle capabilities to the personal transportation sector for the first time ever. The vehicle’s proprietary evSense technology provides a significant competitive gap. Using advanced intelligent algorithms and LiDAR, the evSense system continuously maps the full complexity of the user’s environment in real time. It makes seamless adjustments to proactively prevent collisions with walls, furniture, pedestrians and pets, redefining user safety and independence.
“Receiving the iF Design Award is validation of our strategic vision and execution,” said Tony Hong, CEO of Strutt. “Following our CES Innovation Award and Red Dot: Luminary recognition, we see these industry accolades directly translate into strong early sales traction.
Following the rapid sell-out of its first series, Strutt released an additional allocation and reopened pre-orders. Pre-orders will remain open until the end of February via the official Strutt website: Strutt ev¹ Pre-order deposit
