Press-day video from the ongoing Beijing International Automotive Exhibition which is held on April 21-29, 2014. Plenty of cars and a few trade show models.
Also known as Auto China, the biennial event alternates with Auto Shanghai as China’s major yearly international automotive exhibition.
Video from the 43rd Tokyo Motor Show which was held last month at the Tokyo Big Sight. The highlights are eco-friendly vehicles and next-generation concept cars.
A nice video from the ongoing Kuala Lumpur International Motor Show, with plenty of cars and girls. I’ve been to the two previous events (held every three years) but still undecided on this one. Looks like a decent show but nothing new, and I’m not fond of the large crowd.
The video above was during media preview, so you can’t see the real jam-packed situation. Too bad I’m not invited as a special guest or something LoL, would have shown more interested if that’s the case.
Highlights from the recent Shanghai Motor Show, as picked by Auto Express, a UK based motoring magazine. SUV seems to be the new craze.
Four members of Japanese pop group Nogizaka46 – i.e. Sayuri Matsumura, Nanami Hashimoto, Mai Shiraishi and Misa Eto – celebrated Seijin no Hi (Coming of Age Day) on January 13 in traditional kimono costumes.
Seijin no Hi is a national holiday (second Monday in January each year) for Japanese who reached the legal age of adulthood (20) to celebrate their new status. Many would don in kimono and visit a shrine that day.
