This year’s show is 700,000 square feet of horsepower, featuring an array of vehicles from pre-production, production, exotic, classic, and concept cars. With over 700 vehicles all under one roof, there’s no better place for consumers to find their next vehicle or even place to come and dream than the 2018 Philadelphia Auto Show.

Key highlights of this year’s show include an enhanced Super Cars Display, a robust Exotic Vehicles Display, both of which are both second to none in the country, as well as a variety of Hollywood cars from some of America’s favorite movies and TV shows. Four different collections of classic cars and the latest and greatest from today’s vehicle manufacturers will also be available for viewing.

For those not in the market for a new vehicle, the Philly Auto Show still delivers a great experience for all ages with features like Camp Jeep, multiple Ride and Drive experiences and appearances by Philadelphia Eagles Safety Rodney McLeod, former US Women’s National Team soccer star Heather Mitts and hip hop artist Chill Moody.

“From jaw-dropping Bugattis and other exotics most can only dream of to our favorite vehicles of yesteryear and the Hollywood big screen, the entertainment factor at this year’s event will be at an all-time high,” added Jeffery. “And that’s in addition to the core value and experience that we offer attendees every single year–the best place to browse and compare all of their vehicle options under one roof.”

As one of the nation’s largest auto shows, the Philadelphia Auto Show annually welcomes approximately 250,000 attendees and has a proven track record of influence on consumers in the region. Every year, an average of 90 percent of attendees who are in the market for a new vehicle report that their purchasing decision is influenced by the show, which translates to about $3.5 billion in sales.

This year marks the 117th edition of the Philadelphia Auto Show. More highlights and details include:

 

Preproduction and Hot Production Models

For consumers who want to catch a glimpse of vehicles that will soon be available in dealerships across the region, the Philadelphia Auto Show is the perfect place to view the latest pre-production models. Examples include the 2019 Ram 1500, 2019 Ford Ranger, 2019 Subaru Ascent, 2019 Volvo XC40, 2018 Jaguar E-PACE and 2018 Jeep Wrangler.

The Super Cars and Exotic Vehicles displays at this year’s event are the largest collection of their kind in the country and the biggest-ever for the Philadelphia Auto Show. Courtesy of C.F. Charities, the Super Cars display will host a Bugatti Chiron, Bugatti Veyron, Ford GT and more. The Exotic Vehicles display, courtesy of Algar Ferrari, F.C. Kerbeck and McLaren Philadelphia, will feature dozens of the world’s most elegant vehicles.
