The Society for Indian Automobile Manufactures (SIAM) has announced that the entire floor space of the upcoming 2016 Auto Expo has been sold out despite having more than 7,000 square metres extra space than last year. The event is jointly organized by Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India (ACMA), Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and SIAM, and will be held at the India Exposition Mart in February 2016. Announcing the development for the Auto Expo, Mr. Vishnu Mathur, Director General, SIAM, said, “We are delighted to have successfully sold out the space for the upcoming Motor show. The event has been giving unique opportunity to both indigenous and international vehicle manufacturers to put forth their upcoming products and technologies on a global platform. This time we expect the show to become bigger, better and more exciting.”
The total indoor exhibition area this time has increased from around 42,000 square metres in 2014 to over 50,000 in 2016, which is almost a 20% growth. In the 2016 edition, there will be more than 40 vehicle manufacturers including more than 22 passenger and commercial vehicles. More than 18 two & three wheeler manufacturers will also display their vehicles including electric vehicles.
