Wissmann: More Visitors, More World Premieres, More Exhibitors - This IAA is a Resounding Success

FRANKFURT, Germany, September 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

The 66th IAA Cars ends at 7 p.m. on Sunday.

"This IAA is recording more visitors, more world premieres and more exhibitors than the IAA two years ago. That is a great success. The IAA thus reinforces its position as the world's most important trade show for mobility," said Matthias Wissmann, President of the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), at the closing IAA press conference in Frankfurt am Main today.

"After only the first couple of exhibition days - on last Sunday - we already said we had a welcome increase in the number of visitors. And we still have two and a half exhibition days to go. Despite this, today we can state - based on many years of experience - we assume that by Sunday evening the number of visitors will have climbed to around 920,000. That is growth of around 40,000 IAA visitors, or roughly 5 percent, as compared with 2013. We are extremely satisfied with this result." Read more.
