No other event in the Indian auto business is as big a grandeur as the Auto Expo. However, amid the deterrent slowdown that has struck the auto industry, the big question is that how grand will the 2020 Auto Expo be and how many automakers will participate in its upcoming edition. If reports are to be believed, there are quite a number of automakers who will be skipping the upcoming Auto Expo. Prominent car-makers like Honda, Ford, Toyota, Lexus, Volvo, BMW, Audi, Jaguar Land Rover and the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) Group (including Jeep) have decided to let go this auto expo. Surprisingly, Citroen which is all set to enter the Indian market in a couple of years were to display its first India bound model have also opted out of the event. Speaking about the two-wheeler side of things, Hero MotoCorp has already revealed that it has no plans for the auto expo. That said, there are quite some players in the auto business who still see relevance in participating. For instance, Mercedes-Benz gets a chance to cash in the absence of its rivals and being the only prominent luxury car-maker at the 2020 Auto Expo.
