MarketScale at the Chicago Auto Show

The world’s roadways will look very different in the near future if the 2019 Chicago Auto Show is any indication. Every major car manufacturer attended the event, one of the largest automotive expos on the calendar each year.

MarketScale spoke with several of the most recognizable companies in the industry to see what they are bringing to drivers this year. Everything from autonomous vehicles to electric ones were on display and there was no shortage of innovations to talk about.

Not everyone at a car show is an expert though, so we thought we should also have a bit of fun with Chicagoans and test their automotive IQ as well.

Wait until the end of the video to see if you can guess which car names are real and which are fake!

Your Guide to the Chicago Auto Show

The Chicago Auto Show is back for its 111th exhibition. The vehicles may have changed but the goals of the event are the same, to deliver an experience of what’s next in the world of cars.

At the show, enthusiasts, drivers, and industry experts will be able to look at nearly 1,000 different vehicles. This year, multiple manufacturers will debut new models, with lots of new looks to greet attendees. With more than one million square feet available through the McCormick Place complex, there is not much that cannot be found at the show.

MarketScale traveled to the Chicago Auto Show to scope out the latest trends in the automotive industry. This week’s episode of the MarketScale Transportation Podcast features conversations with representatives from three different automakers who give their thoughts on emerging technology for automobiles.

This week’s show also features a conversation with an expert on railroads who explains how harsh weather, both cold and hot, can affect the railways in a big way.
