M he the growing importance of the Chinese car market is also increasing international interest in the car fair. This is shown not only by the steadily increasing number of visitors to Auto China, but also by the increasing number of world premieres presented at the “Beijing International Automotive Exhibition”.

Chinese and foreign automotive companies and suppliers.Mercedes uses the trade fair in the Chinese capital to present two models . On the one hand, a Maybach SUV study, which is supposed to give an outlook on a GLS in Maybach trim and also represents an almost wasteful design finger exercise. More specific, and also interesting for the European market, is the long version of the Mercedes A-Class sedan. It will come onto the market in China in mid-2018 and at the same time it will be a few centimeters shorter in Europe and the USA.
As the largest market for electric cars with booming SUV sales, China is also the right stage to to give an outlook on a purely electric SUV. BMW is bringing a study of the BMW X3 to the fair.
