Last year's Chicago Auto Show was a success. And now for this year it would be more exciting because there are 27 new production vehicles which were unveiled at the event. Though typically regarded as more of a consumer-driven show than and industry showcase, the Chicago Auto Show continues to attract larger crowds than any other such event in the nation. It is the largest and the longest running auto show, am I right? The world's car manufacturers have taken notice and plan to introduce many new models at the show. Source for this article: The Chicago Auto Show focuses on consumers. There are plenty of new offerings this year, and the show is happening at a time when things are looking up in the auto industry.
