The Vancouver auto show is a success

Proof that auto shows are not in decline: the Vancouver show, held last week, broke its own attendance records. For the second year in a row, this five-day event, held at the Vancouver Convention Centre, welcomed some 138 773 visitors, a clear improvement over last year’s record of 129 033 visitors.

However, the same show was marked by a certain controversy. Organizers asked representatives of the Tesla brand not to participate, fearing, of course, protests against the brand led by the controversial Elon Musk.
