Along with the excitement of New Year’s resolutions, college bowl games and NFL playoffs, this time of year also provides a highly anticipated view into the future of the automotive industry. The North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) is a globally recognized event that takes places every January in Detroit, Michigan at COBO Hall. Each year, the players (both big and small) in the auto industry bring their latest and greatest designs and technology to display for the world to see. This is a must-see event for auto enthusiasts and it provides a great way to spend the weekend in the Motor City. If you’re in the market for a new vehicle, this is one of the largest (and most exciting) vehicle lots that you could ever stroll upon!

This year’s event will run from January 15th through the 23nd. More details below…
