The International Geneva Motor Show is an annual auto show held in March in
the Swiss city of Geneva. The show started in 1905 and is now the only
annual automobile show in Europe. The show is held at Palexpo, a giant
convention center located next to the International Airport. The Salon is
scheduled by the Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs
d'Automobiles, which considers it a major international auto show. Almost
all motor combustion models have been featured in the show - ranging from
benzene to steam, with many exotic and supercars stealing the spotlights
throughout the 20th century. Prototypes, new equipment, technical
breakthroughs, and international partnerships as well as political and
social debates are all landmarks of this international exhibition.
