This is the first time ever, the show that invites over 100000 visitors daily in a weeklong event and where over a couple of dozen vehicle premiers and showcases takes place has been delayed.
Auto Expo – The Motor Show 2022 was scheduled from 2nd – 9th February 2022 at India Expo Mart in Greater Noida.
The industry body Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers Association in a statement said, Safety of Exhibitors, Visitors and all stakeholders involved and present at the Expo is the topmost priority for SIAM. Given the uncertainty around how COVID-19 would develop in the coming months, the association would need a lead time of preferably a year for organising the Auto Expo.
“The Indian Automobile Industry and SIAM recognises the inherent risks in organising the Auto Expo due to the on-going Covid-19 Pandemic and the apprehensions of a possible 3rd Wave. Also Auto Expo is like a festival of celebration for the Indian Automobile Industry and we look forward to receiving maximum people with no fear of spread of infection,” said Rajesh Menon, director general for SIAM.
The exact date for the next edition of ‘Auto Expo – The Motor Show’ would be finalised later this year keeping in view the Covid situation and in alignment with the OICA Calendar of global Auto shows, added Menon.
