A report by Auto News has Mercedes-Benz not showing at the Detroit Autoshow next year AKA North American International Auto Show.
“We have to look at whether a trade show like Detroit fits with the cadence of our launch calendar and whether there’s a more effective format for our needs,” said a senior Mercedes executive close to the plans. “The G class was the perfect product to debut this year, but the likelihood we will be in Detroit next January is very slim. That doesn’t mean however we are ruling out a return in 2020.”
This could be the biggest of many setback for the North American International Auto Show of late. In the last few years Mazda, Volvo, Porsche, Jaguar and Land Rover pull out of the show.
