The Paris Motor Show is getting ready to put the spotlight back on the European car market, with a slimmer format but plenty of new models. This year’s event will be shaped mainly by EVs, compact SUVs and fresh strategies from Chinese brands, which are becoming increasingly visible in Europe.
For Italian readers, it will be a useful chance to see where the industry is heading: pricing, range, shared platforms and perceived quality will be the main talking points. Some models already heading for our market are also expected, from concepts to production cars close to launch.
