- In 2022, the Paris Motor Show was a show that no longer represented the global automotive industry at all, but only a very small part, with three Stellantis brands (DS, Peugeot, Jeep) and three Renault brands (Renault, Dacia, Alpine) as well as a few Chinese brands (Leapmotor, Seres, BYD, ORA, WEY) and others (Hopium, Vinfast, NamX). Plus a few brands of small cars (Aixam, Microlino, Silence, Eon, E-GO, XEV Cars, City transformer).
- The 2024 edition, which will take place from October 14 to 20, 2024, will welcome around thirty major carmakers (including sixteen European brands, nine Chinese brands, three American brands, one Japanese brand and one Korean brand), the list being on the following two pages.
- The 2024 edition also welcomes around ten brands of L6-L7 segments (quadricycles with an empty weight of less than 500 kilos) including Aixam, Eon Motors, Kilow, Ligier, Microlino, Mobilize and Softcar. It should be remembered that this market is estimated at 40,000 units per year in Europe, when the major segments (A-B-C-D-E-F segments) reaches between 11 and 15 million units depending on the year.
- The years 2024 and 2025 will be marked by the revival of the electric market with entry-level models, at lower prices than those practiced so far by European carmakers, and by the development of Chinese models in Europe (350,000 sales made in 2023). It should be noted that the market level that Chinese carmakers will reach is currently difficult to quantify. Indeed, it will depend on the performance/price positioning of Chinese vehicles compared to European vehicles and the discussions conducted by Brussels with Chinese carmakers to reduce the price differences of Chinese vehicles imported into Europe. However, these measures will push the establishment of a Chinese industry located in Europe (carmakers and probably part of the "Supply chain").
