A Quick Guide To Successful Car Shopping (Hint: Attend An Auto Show)
Looking for a low-pressure, experiential environment where you can explore the latest and greatest cars or trucks that the auto industry has to offer? Then without a doubt your first stop should be your local auto show. While there are many places people do their car research, the auto show is still the place where potential customers can get up close to the vehicle and compare the different brands. “An auto show is an amazing one-stop destination where people like me can get the first look at the best manufacturers have to offer, from redesigns of iconic models to a showcase of future offerings,” says National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) Chairman and auto dealer, Charlie Gilchrist.
In every market, Auto Shows only happen once a year. There is no better place or time to compare, shop and see all the new vehicles, all in one space.
In fact, PRE-COVID, an average 11 million Americans went to their local show every year, according to Forrester Research, with seven out of 10 of those attendees saying they were in the market for a new car.
And, just as COVID-19 has changed the way auto dealers do business and sell cars, auto shows have evolved and adapted to meet increased consumer demand to purchase vehicles and the desire for an in-person experience.
Just when you thought you knew exactly what your next vehicle was going to be, another option
will catch your attention out of the corner of your eye or a seat will fit you just perfectly. That is the power of an Auto Show. It ensures your next big purchase will leave you without any regret.
The 2021 Albany Auto Show will be held locally November 5th through the 7th at the Times Union Center and is your chance to see your current auto choices, all in one place!
