Ryan Nagode is an automotive designer and chief interior designer at Stellantis. In 2014, he was named to the Automotive News "40 under 40."
A graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art Industrial Design Program in 2003, Nagode designed the exterior of the Dodge Avenger; the Dodge Journey; the interior of the 2009 Dodge Ram and 2011 Jeep Wrangler; and directed the design studio for the 2013 RAM 1500/2500/3500 interiors, including the Laramie Longhorn and Limited models, as well as the 2013 Dodge Dart and the return of the 2013 SRT Viper.
In a 2007 interview, Nagode said the front end of the Avenger was inspired by a favourite pair of designer Oakley sunglasses and the feeling they give him when he wore them.
