Szczecin motor show set to be a hit despite absence of Fiat and Daewoo

Over 80 automotive companies will participate in the "Auto-Salon" exhibition starting tomorrow in Szczecin. The event's host, Szczecin International Fair (MTS), is confident of having over 12,000 visitors. Many car manufacturers participating in the fair have announced that they will present the latest innovations in motoring. During the exhibition, such companies as Citroen, Peugeot, Ford, Skoda, Seat, Renault, Honda, Volvo and Mercedes will present their new models. Fiat and Daewoo have decided not to participate in the show. "As in past fairs, companies producing and offering car parts, accessories and car-care products will also be present. Leasing and insurance companies will tempt visitors with their competing offers and banks will present auto-financing packages," said MTS general director Edward Stepanian. (Puls Biznesu, p. 11) M.T.
