The 2020 Dream Car Art Contest now open!

Does your child have a creative idea for what the car of the future might look like? We have the perfect opportunity for them, and all you need is some paper and imagination because the 2020 Dream Car Art Contest is now open for entries.

What is the 2020 Dream Car Art Contest?

The Dream Car Art Contest is a global competition that invites children under the age of 15 to let their imaginations run wild by designing cars of the future.   

The competition encourages children to showcase their creative talent by designing cars that focus on causes important to them. Every year we’re amazed at the awareness shown from the entrants who design cars that focus on real-world issues. Previous ideas that have won over the judges include vehicles that can lower the temperature of the ocean, collect and care for the homeless and help to solve London’s housing issues.  

Winners of the national competition are invited to an awards ceremony at Toyota GB HQ to receive a variety of different prizes, including computer tablets and Toyota goody bags. Their entries will also go forward for consideration in the global competition and the chance to win the trip of a lifetime to Japan in 2021. 

How do I enter the 2020 Dream Car Art Contest?  

Entry forms can be downloaded and more information, including inspiration from previous winning designs and full competition terms and conditions, can be found at the Dream Car Art Contest page at www.toyota.co.uk/dreamcar. The closing date for entries is 20 January 2020.
