Purchase contracts and over 20 000 admissions
That the fascination for the automobile is unbroken was once again proven by the Auto Basel. Well over 20,000 admissions were counted. Although the number of visitors was slightly below that of the previous year, the quality of the visitors was judged to be excellent by all exhibitors. During the exhibition days, about 150 sales contracts were concluded directly.

After a certain amount of uncertainty was felt in the automotive industry in recent months due to the new emissions standards that will take effect this fall, visitors appreciated the fact that they could obtain competent information directly on site about a wide range of drive options.
The opportunity to test drive purely electrically powered vehicles on site also met with unexpectedly great interest.
