Motor shows are the lifeblood of our news coverage at Autocar. They generate huge amounts of stories for us to share with you; not just on the cars unveiled at the show, but also from the face-to-face interviews with executives and, perhaps most important, the gossip, titbits and nods and winks on the side that inform our news stories and help us break exclusive scoops for weeks and months to come.
Covid-19 meant a pause to them for nearly two years (the Geneva show of March 2020 was cancelled at the eleventh hour, meaning we hadn’t had one since Los Angeles 2019), and like so many other life experiences, interviewing executives on Zoom just isn’t the same, because there’s no way to see what’s not said: body language, eye contact, the nervous look to the press officer at a question… But motor shows returned in September with the debut of Munich, and what a joy it was to bring you all the action. Here’s hoping for more signs of life returning to normal in 2022.
