Would it be as big as the Auto Expo Delhi?
I seriously doubt that! In 2009 the same expo was held out here at the same venue.

Myself, co-member Ilango and another friend came all the way from Pondicherry in our bikes but got disappointed![frustration]

cars showcased were from brands like Maruti Suzuki, Tata, Ford and only one modified Endeavour (limo version) was there.

Bikes brands were Bajaj with Pulsar, Discover series along with few models from Yamaha, Honda & TVS.

We came back cheated last time! Let us hope it is good atleast this time!

Will surely pay a visit though!

I don’t think I will even plan for this event. Last time a friend of mine visited this expo only to hit upon commonplace models of the manufacturers. As of now I am hooked to the dates of Delhi Supercar show which I think is worth a visit!

There is other way of looking at it too. Most of times people at big cities find no time to visit the Showrooms. So these Auto shows are apt place to get all the existing models seen under one roof. As far as new models are concerned usually companies stay far from displaying them as the current product portfolio is effected. This my personal opinion.

Delhi Auto Expo is the largest automobile show in India, which attracts masses of auto manufacturer’s from worldwide. I doubt if currently any other auto-event in India can even match up to its levels.

Are you sure that it was Auto World Expo? That was some different automotive show, I guess?
