Bharat Expo 2024: My overall experience via pictures

There were many EVs including an ultra-luxurious bus from Volvo. Mercedes showcased 3 cars at its pavilion which was located opposite to BMW.

BHPian autobahnjpr recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

I was there at the Bharat Expo 2024 and will let the pictures do most of the talking. The auto expo and the parts expo were together and there was a separate registration process for the parts expo. Spread across the entire pragati maidan, the expo was really large and had something of interest for everyone.

Key observations

The entire ecosystem - cars, two-wheelers, three-wheelers, buses, trucks, parts, ancillaries, tyre manufacturers - was present. There were stalls for car care products too. All technologies and fuels showcased - fossil fuel, electric, hybrid, hydrogen, flex fuel. Side events like road safety and go-karting were also there. India and foreign players were equally present. Some of the stalls were really B-I-G and lot of space to move around and get the feel of the vehicles.

Compared to previous years, it was very well organized, well spread out, well managed and the weather also supported the event with nice bright sunshine on a cold day.

ACE had a flag flying along with the national flag

All the construction equipment manufacturers were there - Tata, ACE, JCB, SANY. Many showcased their full electric range of cranes, diggers etc.

VW Group was present with all the child brands - From VW, no new model was on display. Only the Virtus.

Close look at the closed front grill - seemed to be made of class/crystal elements.

More than enough golf carts for the delegates - not for us mortals.

There were 3 such food courts with a wide variety of veg and non-veg food options. the eating space was spacious, had enough tables, and chairs and was very clean. I was early so it was a little deserted.

Focus on Localization - Build in Bharat for the world.

There was a large Safe Journey pavilion celebrating Road Safety Month. It showcased various technologies and products in road safety. Next to it was a small eye testing van offering free eye tests for drivers.
