2019 LA Auto Show: What to Know

The future of the automobile will be on display Nov. 22 through Dec. 1 when the 2019 Los Angeles Auto Show rolls into the LA Convention Center.

The event includes World and North American debuts, giving Southern Californians the opportunity to be among the first to see what automakers have to offer and where the industry is headed. 

Representatives from each carmaker will be in the Convention Center halls to answer your questions, whether you're in the market for a new car or just looking. Visitors also can test drive new models from a range of automakers outside the Convention Center.

On-Site Test Drives

Virtual Reality and Gaming

Several automakers offer virtual driving experiences. Get behind the wheel of an Acura NSX or Jaguar racer, or take on your friends in the Volkswagen GTI Track Challenge.
