L.a. Auto Show 2016

The E1C will be featured at the reveal, but the P5 at the Elio display space. I'm attending 11/21 so will miss the reveal . Anyone else going? There's a few automakers and customs I'm looking forward to seeing.

There is a decent possibility that I might be attending. Haven't decided which day though.

Who said they're taking it away?
Last line in that article, it says "..... Elio will also show off (again) the P5 prototype vehicle and the interactive ePlus display at AutoMobility LA, the connected car portion of the show."

It sounds more like both the E1C and the P5 will be there

Whew, I certainly hope you are correct. I won't be there to see them in person, but am already envious of those who will!

I hope Autoblog is wrong and the latest makes it to the show floor. That being said, it's fairly common that the press reveal models don't make it to the vendor pavilions. That's been my experience. Stayed tuned, I'll share photos of whatever I can get!

The AutoMobility LA portion of the show is press/insiders only and runs through this Thursday. The public auto show starts Friday, 11/18.

This also came from that last article you posted "........interactive ePlus display at AutoMobility LA, the connected car portion of the show."

Interactive ePlus display = Configurator

I sure hope they get more options put in to it before the show starts.

Now this, is exciting news. To those attending have fun and oh yes if you can post pictures that would be most excellent.

With Thursday being for just press and insiders, does that mean we won't be hearing the news until Friday? I didn't notice anyone saying they would be there Thursday.

Paul is slotted a reveal press conference from 2:15-2:40pm Eastern on Thursday. I'm not sure if it will be streamed live or have a related blog post or press release statement sharing any of the breaking news. If anything, EM always has their digest of blog posts emailed out on Fridays.

Maybe they want to market it this way to show the public how thing are progressing toward a finished product this is just a thought .

The last Elio Special Pricing e-mail sported a true blue on blue background. Now another blue light special.

Lights, Camera, Action: The LA Auto Show | Trending Topics
November 15, 2016

The city of Los Angeles can be considered an authority on a variety of wide-ranging topics. Sunny weather, stars and starlets of the big screen, majestic beaches, and traffic jams are all staples of the Los Angeles experience. As the city is a spread out metropolitan area, it would be virtually impossible to get around Los Angeles without a vehicle, which is why LA is considered one of the most important car cities in the country. It should come as no surprise that one of the world’s biggest and best auto shows is the Los Angeles Auto Show.

The history of the LA Auto Show highlights its importance and illustrious reputation in the automotive world. The first show took place over 100 years ago, in 1907. It was the first ever auto show to be held on the West Coast. The inaugural event surely looked much different than the current show, as fewer than 100 vehicles were on display and the event attracted approximately 3,000 visitors. Yet, despite the changes, the LA Auto Show has continually been an event that showcases the newest and most exciting trends that the automotive industry has to offer.

Because of its size and exposure, it should come as no surprise that many automakers unveil new vehicles and concepts at the LA Auto Show. Prior to the show opening to the public, “the Show’s Press and Trade Days draw more than 18,000 auto industry decision makers and influencers including 4,400 media from more than 58 countries.” During the press days, many automakers use the opportunity to unveil their newest creations. This year, more than 50 new vehicles will be making their world debut at the LA Auto Show. These new vehicles will be representative of the automotive industry’s direction in the future.

What will be the major trends of this year’s LA Auto Show? Only time will tell, but according to Fortune “Auto shows are no longer just about new cars, trucks, and SUVs—although that last one is a dominating force these days. Now, it’s about the technology inside the car, and the giant companies and small upstarts that are jumping in on the action.” This year promises to offer a wide variety of vehicles and new technologies from a wide variety of manufacturers.

In Los Angeles, it can be hard to stand out. Consistently, the careers of actors and actresses will quickly fizzle out after experiencing their 15 minutes of fame. But, the LA Auto Show has become a fixture in the industry as one of the premier automotive displays in the world. Since 1907, The LA Auto Show has put vehicles on display that have changed the way Americans move. This year, with more than 50 unveilings, will continue the tradition and showcase the future of the automotive industry.
