Recently went to LA Auto Show. It was never world class but a decade or two ago it definitely had all mainstream German brands represented, the mainstream exotic brands (Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati) and the small market share brands like Alfa Romeo, Mitsubishi, etc. It had literally none of that. It wasn’t boring but it also wasn’t the “near-complete index of new cars for viewing” it used to be.
Do such shows still exist? Geneva and Detroit come to mind, but have they withered away too?
Maybe some lesser-known shows like Dubai, or Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, India? Mexico?
Would appreciate any input & insight
Swiss here. Last Geneva Motor Show was before Covid, since then it was cancelled. Last month the Geneve Motor Show happend to be in Qatar! WTF? But there is a silver lining: It seems the show is coming back to Geneva in March 2024, but we will have to see how many manufactures actually will show up again.
