Highlights From The 2019 Canadian International Auto Show Media Day

 

This is fifth year in a row that I have attended the Canadian International Auto Show media day. Now for those of you who think getting a behind the scenes look at the coolest cars and attending exclusives press conferences is fun…. Well it is.

It is also grueling. Very grueling

My day started at 5:15 AM to be at the Metro Toronto Convention Center at 7:10 AM. Fortunately, they feed us breakfast. The actual events start at 7:30AM and there were two highlights that I’d like to point out. Starting with the AJAC car and utility of the year:

This is just a fraction of what I saw today. If you’re into cars, and you’re in or around the Greater Toronto area, check out the Canadian International Autoshow. It runs from February Feb 15 until the 24th at the Metro Toronto Convention Center. Come early as there’s a lot to see and do here, and bring comfortable shoes. I’ve only scratched the surface in terms of what’s on offer for visitors to see.
