The Paris Motor Show, and the EQUIP AUTO trade show are to come together for a special combined event in 2022 called Paris Automotive Week, which will be held at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles exhibition centre from 17 to 23 October 2022.

Both the MONDIAL DE L'AUTO and the EQUIP AUTO trade show have had to cancel recent events due to the challenges of Covid-19. The two flagship events will now come together and be held at the same time, for the first time, in autumn 2022.

The organisers says, “Faced with historic challenges, the automotive sector is looking to the future more than ever, investing unprecedented amounts into vehicles that would provide sustainable and connected transport for all. Over the last few months, and after successive periods of lockdown, consumers around the world have proven the importance of freedom of movement and individual transport.”

“With its large companies, manufacturers and parts suppliers operating on a global scale, as well as its engineering companies, start-ups and all the distribution and repair companies, the automotive and transportation industry in France is one of the four largest players in the world and an effective incentive for innovation in the country.”

“In this context, the French automotive sector is delighted to announce the return of the MONDIAL DE L'AUTO and the EQUIP AUTO trade show in autumn 2022. For the first time, the two flagship events in the automotive sector are coming together to form the Paris Automotive Week.”
