The 2022 Paris Motor Show (in French Mondial de l'automobile de Paris or Mondial de l'Auto) is an international auto show, which was held from October 18 to October 23, 2022, at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, in Paris, France. It is part of Paris Automotive Week, bringing together the Motor Show and the Equip Auto trade show. [2]
The 2022 show celebrates the 124th anniversary of the "International Automobile, Cycle and Sports Exhibition" born in Paris in 1898, [3] and the 121st edition since its creation.
The "2022 Paris Motor Show", the direct heir of this event, is the largest motor show in the world in terms of longevity and attendance, but also one of the rare motor shows to still exist today. [4]
The poster for this 2022 edition was unveiled in March of the same year. It includes bright colours which, according to the organization, represent “a wind of optimism, with a new vision of the automobile”. The slogan is "Revolution is on" ("la révolution est en marche" in French). [5]
Taking place over a single week, attendance is in free fall with 397,812 paid admissions, whereas previous editions exceeded one million admissions. [6]
It is also the most decried edition by the press and the public, with the absence of many manufacturers, where it is quicker to count the present than the absent, and the little surface area devoted to cars with only 3 exhibition halls but without the historical Hall 1. [7]
The event organiser is planning a 2024 edition with more manufacturers and over a two-week period. [8]
The show takes place for the public from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. from October 18 to 23, 2022 (7 p.m. on Sundays), October 17 being dedicated only to the international press, and the Equip Auto show ends on October 22.
The show is exhibited in halls 3, 4 and 6 of the Parc des Expos in Paris.
