Good news for made in Italy from the international aerospace show in Le Bourget, where the delivery of the first high-end aircraft with interiors designed by Pininfarina was announced. This is the Sukhoi SuperJet 100, ordered in 20 examples plus 10 as an option by the Mexican company Interjet to the company SuperJet International – a joint venture between Alenia Aermacchi of the Finmeccanica group and the Russian company Sukhoi Holding.
“We are very satisfied to announce this important result at the international air show in Paris – said Nazario Cauceglia, CEO of SuperJet International – in recent months we have worked with great commitment to satisfy all the requests of our client, the second largest airline in Mexico. We are proud to present at Le Bourget the first aircraft fitted out by SuperJet International and completed with the made in Italy interiors designed by Pininfarina. The Sukhoi Superjet 100 is about to gain an important role in the regional segment and is now ready to enter the western market”.
The interiors of the Sukhoi Superjet 100, designed precisely by Pininfarina, will also be awarded the Red Dot Design Award 2013, in recognition of quality, in a ceremony to be held on July XNUMXst in Essen, Germany.
“This new certificate of esteem for the work of our team fills us with pride and reaffirms Pininfarina's role in the world of design – commented the Chairman Paolo Pininfarina -. Together with Alenia the goal was to create a design capable of guaranteeing an excellent travel experience, optimizing style and functionality with a clear vision of the air travel of the future. With our team we have concentrated on the general ergonomics of the cabin, where scientific, technological and engineering research is combined with the aesthetic dimension. Crucial is the emotion that the passenger receives at the first visual impact with the interior of the aircraft: more spacious, comfortable and relaxing than those of aircraft of the same category".
