The Garage
A new and enhanced version of the mythical Performance Zone will be launched at MIAS. This modified car area is renewed year after year to bring a series of vehicles out of the ordinary to the show and the 2019 Edition will be no exception and has many surprises: the visitor will be transported into the world of performance at level 7, with an Acura Integra 2000, a Chevrolet Belair 1957, a Porsche 914 1973, to name a few. The car enthusiasts will be filling-up their emotions.
The Black Box
Visitors of the Montreal International Auto Show will get the opportunity to discover The Black Box, presented in collaboration with OB Prestige Auto. It’s a section of the event featuring a mysterious decor that mixes light and sound. Never seen before in the Show’s history, this feature will present three exceptional, rare cars that are sure to get visitors’ hearts pounding; two of them rank amongst the fastest cars on the planet and amongst the most expensive as well. The third one was born in Quebec and blessed with an amazing drive and jaw-dropping bodywork: A Bugatti Chiron, a Koenigsegg Agera RS, and the Quebec design by Antoine Bessette, the Felino cB7R. A record number of 42 Electric Vehicles, all under one roof MIAS attendees will discover in all 3 levels of the Auto Show, a record number of 42 Electric, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and hydrogen vehicles. A floor plan will be distributed for electronic ticket buyers, as well as at the ticket counters of the Palais des congrès, to help visitors identify electric vehicles throughout the show.
