John Manoogian II

John Manoogian II (born July 23, 1947) is an automobile designer, industrial designer, adjunct faculty member, and automotive industry expert. He is known for his nearly 33-year career with General Motors, where he designed for the company's Chevrolet, Pontiac, Saturn, Buick, Oldsmobile and Cadillac divisions.

At Cadillac, Manoogian's work ranged 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, as well as the production and concept categories at EyesOn Design, an event judged by noted vehicle designers.

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.
