2025 CIAS in Toronto to Feature the Return of Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz
Following a record-breaking 2024 edition that saw an attendance of more than 370,000 visitors, the Canadian International AutoShow will return to the Metro Toronto Convention Centre from February 14-23, 2025 with more brands and exclusive features.
CIAS organizers this week announced that German automakers Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz will all return for 2025 after a few years of absence.
The full roster of presenting brands that are already confirmed also include Ford, Lincoln, Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, GMC, Toyota, Lexus, Volvo, Polestar, McLaren, Subaru, Rivian, Kia, Nissan, Infiniti, Hyundai, Genesis, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Chrysler and Fiat. Shell Performance and Grand Touring Automobiles will showcase additional features.
“Being able to welcome back a number of large highly valued marques is a testament to the value of the AutoShow to both consumers and Canada’s automotive industry,” CIAS General Manager Jason Campbell said. “Consumer feedback from the previous show was very positive, but between the roster of new and returning manufacturers, consumers will have the most comprehensive offering of new product at any auto show in North America.”
Autostrada Magazine, Barrett-Jackson and other key partners will transform Auto Exotica on the 100 level of the Metro Toronto Convention Centre into a mecca for performance enthusiasts, while Cobble Beach Classics will host a tribute to Mercedes-Benz with an eight-vehicle display showcasing the history of one of the world’s iconic auto manufacturers.
The popular Indoor EV Test Track and Camp Jeep will continue to provide an interactive experience.
And once again, the Automotive Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) will reveal the winners of the prestigious Canadian Car of the Year Awards during the Media Day opening presentation, with participating brands expected to unveil many new products for the first time ever in Canada.
General Admission tickets are available on the CIAS’ website with the Early Bird ticket discount offering up to 25 percent off regular rates until Dec 31st. New ticketing options are also available, with reduced admission prices on opening Friday. A new special promotion offers tickets online at $20 (compared to $28 regular admission) for visitors coming after 5 pm.
