The show offers an up-close look at the future of automotive design and the latest technological advancements. Since it’s a non-selling show, attendees are invited to sit in the driver’s seats, inspect engines and compare legroom on a host of new vehicles without the pressure to buy.
Among the show’s newest models featured are the 2007 Saturn SKY and Chevrolet Tahoe. Cutting-edge concept cars will also be featured. Concepts serve as test beds for design ideas and innovative technologies. Dodge will showcase the Dodge Caliber concept vehicle and a brand-new concept is anticipated from Ford.
The Northeast International Auto Show is presented by the Rhode Island Automobile Dealers Association.
Admission is $9 for adults (13 and over), $6 for senior citizens (62 and over), $3 for children (7 through 12) and free for children 6 and under.
