The company said its premium massage chair won high points in terms of technical skills, design, consumer values, competitiveness and uniqueness.
Bodyfriend launched a Lamborghini-themed massage chair in June, in a joint effort with Italian luxury carmaker Automobili Lamborghini, injecting $30 million into R&D for the latest model.
With a sleek design that resembles the super car, the massage chair offers 23 types of automatic massage modes, along with different audio and light therapy functions. Its price is around $30,000, 10 times higher than the company’s other massage chairs.
