The show not only provides premium automotive entertainment to its visitors but also serves as a B2B and B2C platform that connects suppliers and retailers of tuning and after-market products, directly with buyers and end consumers. The show is also a strategic partner of SEMA (Speciality Equipment Market Association) show, US.

“Another highlight of the event is a competition for the strongest modified car, between government and local authorities and at the motorcycle level, beautiful and powerful bikes are expected to be shared.

“In terms of engine competition, there are two activities this year, the eight-cylinder and six-cylinder, starting with assembling the engine and then installing it on the car and then being tested to determine the number of horses,” he added.

He pointed out that the exhibition attracts new participants and there are well-known workshops at the local and regional level. Despite the pandemic, the event has garnered participation from Europe, America and the GCC.
