The devastating forest fires around Los Angeles are largely erased. In the auto industry to burn it all the more. How dramatic the situation is now, shows the LA Auto Show. Instead of sunshine and very vain glitter party prevails in the exhibition halls of the convention center Gravedigger mood - especially at the stands of American manufacturers. Of the once exalted as the Big Three titled World corporations General Motors, Chrysler and Ford - are today than they mockingly dismissed the Detroit Three - Ford had just loaded to the press conference. The most important agenda item: slight retouching on the retro-hit Mustang.Dark times at GM and Chrysler
The high lords of GM are equally at home remained, finally, it is important to save what still needs to be saved. Press conferences there was not even any new cars, only the current models. Between all the Chevrolets, Pontiacs, Cadillacs and lobster prevailed, however, yawning emptiness. Models Posende nobody had expected. But that not even the info booths are occupied, is significant.
Even gloomier when it looks from Chrysler - in the truest sense of the word. When former Mercedes-handed partner is apparently not even for a few extra headlights. Funzeln from the ceiling of the hall lit only sparingly, the new Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep downright in the shadow of the opposite, brightly lit VW stand. It is quite interesting for Chrysler products, from electrified Wrangler until electrical Dodge in the style of the Tesla Roadster. Contact? Nothing. The information booth? Orphaned.
Bustle of the other stalls
Dead so the fair from the perspective of American manufacturers is so accustomed the stands are full of European and Asian brands. Nissan Example: The unveiling of the new athlete 370 Z was surrounded, as if someone the car from scratch invented. Similar scenes at Hyundai, where there is a new coupe can be seen there, and at Mazda, where the compact 3 premiere celebrated. Great was the crowd at the first exhibition at BMW. Bayern have no genuine hits this exhibition, make the Americans but the hybrid versions of the X6 and 7 before. And the new Mini-E, of which 500 units will soon be in a field trial in Los Angeles and New York experience for a later volume production electric car will collect.
