Delhi Auto show countdown begins

The countdown for the 11th Auto Expo to be held in New Delhi between January 5 to January 11 2012 has begun.

A massive surge of overseas participation, bigger contingents from Germany and China, besides a strong presence of Indian manufacturers have all resulted in a complete booking of space at the venue -16 halls, the 10 hangers and the outdoor space in total comprising 115000 square meters, Aligning with the theme of ‘Mobility for All”, Mr Rajive Kaul chairman of Steering committee, Auto Expo 2012, highlighted during his presentation.

International attention on the Indian automotive industry is perhaps at It’s peak today, with the developed markets either stagnant or declining. India is one of the few markets in the world which is growing and also has a vast growth potential in the years to come. Therefore, the world is looking at India to drive future global growth in the auto sector. Almost every foreign vehicle manufacturer has a presence in India, and companies who do not yet have a presence in India are expected to enter shortly. All eyes are currently on India, observed by Mr S Sandilya president SIAM

Mr. Sandilya said that with the current lull in the market, the Auto Expo will aim to generate excitement and fulfill the aspirations of the Indian consumers with the Theme of “Mobility for All” and will also position India as a champion of Green Mobility, with a focus on alternative fuels, Electric and Hybrid Mobility etc, which is a national as well as a global imperative.
