Ford will once again be a major presence at this year’s event where it will be unveiling the latest Ranger and Ranger Raptor Pick-ups. VW Commercial vehicles, which will showcase its latest commercial EVs on its stand, has just released its latest global sales figures that show year-on-year growth of almost 10%.

The growth in exhibitors of eco-tech, pedestrian safety and fleet optimisation technology indicates that, while the UK market is strong, it continues to evolve and look ever-further to the future.”
This year’s show will play host to no fewer than ten major product launches from global manufacturers, which will highlight industry knowledge and offer insight into the current and future trends.
