Motor Show sets sales record
The figure, a record
in comparison with that of the previous years, is seen as a good sign of
the recovery being made by the domestic automobile industry.
Most
of the contracts fell into the hands of the producers and distributors
of luxury and high-value models, such as the Mercedes S500 Coupe, Audi
A3 Sportback and Audi A7 Sportback, besides the Lexus GX460, BMW 428i
Gran Coupe and MINI Cabriolet Cooper.
Companies that assemble the
models locally and the official distributors of 18 brands of vehicles
participated in the show, the country's biggest automobile event, which
also attracted nearly 162,000 visitors.
The exhibition showcased
the latest auto models, spare parts and accessories and interior
materials, as well as insurance, finance and banking in hundreds of
pavilions, providing a whole range of experiences to car owners in
