When compared with the 43rd BIMS, the show’s organizer projected to see around 15-20% growth this year, in terms of the number of visitors and the number of total bookings (of both cars and motorcycles), supported by several factors, including the relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions, the auto industry showing signs of “return to normalcy”, as well as the arrival of new electric mobility models.
