Said to be a bigger show than previous years, there are a total of 44 new reveals at this year’s show. Highlights of the show include the unique Mercedes SLS AMG with the striking matte black paint job, Walkinshaw Performance’s 6.0 litre supercharged WP Series II Supercar and Lexus’s CT 200H F Sport. Usual show stoppers including the Lexus LF-A and the Maserati Granturismo are also featured in the show.
“This will be one of the best-supported shows on record and is a real boost for the automotive industry,” said show director Russ Tyrie.
“Everyone on the AIMS committee is gratified with the overwhelming confidence and support the industry has shown in wanting to make this the best show possible.
Major motor shows around the world have taken a battering in recent years, with many major brands choosing not to exhibit, so we are really proud that our local industry has shown such strong support.
It is true we are slightly oversubscribed on space, but it is a nice problem to have and we are working well with all the brands to try and meet their particular requirements.
The response we have had from the brands highlights how well the industry is recovering and confirms AIMS as the premier motor show in the southern hemisphere,” Mr Tyrie said.
