In addition to the French brands from the Renault Group and Stellantis, BMW, MINI, Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda and BYD will be taking part.
BMW, MINI, Volkswagen, Audi and Skoda will be present at Mondial de l’Automobile de Paris 2024. The event, which runs from October 14 to 20, will be attended by three Renault Group brands (Renault, Dacia and Alpine) and two French Stellantis brands (Citroën and Peugeot).
And the list is getting longer, because as well as confirming the presence of several German brands, Ford will also be there, as well as Kia, BYD, Seres, Xpeng and other Asian brands.
In recent years, the Paris Motor Show, like other similar events, has suffered particularly badly. In 2020 it did not take place because of the Covid pandemic then, in 2022 (the Paris Motor Show has historically been held every two years, alternating with Germany’s main motor show, the IAA, organised by the VDA), the event resumed in a smaller format, with the presence only of French carmakers and BYD.
The 2024 edition of therefore promises to be (more) interesting, and offers a sign of hope for European events (remember that the major Geneva Motor Show has been cancelled). The next IAA will be held in Munich in 2025.
