The Essen Motor Show 2024 has just ended after a ten-day car festival where car enthusiasts from all over the world gathered in the hallowed halls of Essen.
The event offers everything from racing and classic cars to tuning and lifestyle products. With more than 200,000 visitors and around 500 exhibitors, the 56th event was a success for both fans and companies.
One of the biggest attractions was the new campaign choir from TUNE IT! SAFE! initiative, a BMW M2 tuned by AC Schnitzer in police design.
Motorsport also had a strong presence, with the new Ford Mustang GT3 from ADAC creating a lot of attention among DTM fans.
Several big names such as JP Performance and Sidney Industries participated and attracted long queues at their stands. At the same time, classic car fans could enjoy historic rally cars and the impressive Japan Mile in the Classic & Prestige salon.
The Essen Motor Show is not only a celebration for car enthusiasts, but also an important platform for the automotive industry.
Despite political and economic challenges, 90% of exhibitors reported great satisfaction with their business results. Some debutants, such as Dickie Spielzeug and LEGO, could also report great success in reaching new audiences.
Next year's Essen Motor Show is already on the calendar, opening with a preview day on November 28, 2025. For car fans and exhibitors, the show is an annual event that showcases the best in automotive culture and innovation.
