Peter Palmer: 86th Geneva International Motor Show Gallery

[adblock[

The 86th Geneva International Motor Show is going on through the 13th and some of the vehicles on display are simply breathtaking. This week, we wrote about a few of our favorites: Bugatti Chiron, Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 Avio, Volkswagen Phideon, and the Mercedes-AMG C43 but the truth is, there are dozens more.

200 exhibitors from 30 countries are gathered in the Swiss city, nestled between the Alps and Jura Mountains. This year, 120 world and European premieres have been announced in the motor cars, special bodywork, and converted cars sections alone. Other world and European premieres have taken place in the accessories, OEM, and workshop installations sections as well.

A Car of the Year award is decided upon by 58 journalists from 22 countries. The tradition began in 1964 with seven European magazines from seven countries: Germany (Stern), Italy (Auto), France (L’Automobile), Spain (Autopista), United Kingdom (Autocar), The Netherlands (Autovisie), and Sweden (Vi Bilägare).

In addition, the Advertising and Communication Club of Geneva will present the 13th Creativity Award to the exhibitor with the best looking area, most dynamic vehicle presentation, and highest foot traffic. Based on the photos below, it would be hard to pick a winner in either category!
