美国芝加哥国际汽车博览会（Chicago Auto Show）是全球最大的汽车展之一，芝加哥车展于1901年首次上演，是北美最大的车展，一年一届，每年二月份在芝加哥麦考密克广场（McCormick Place）举行，其举办次数超过了该大陆的任何其他汽车博览会。该展由芝加哥汽车贸易协会（CATA）组织，展览包括：多个世界和北美的介绍，全系列的国产和进口乘用车和卡车，运动型多功能车，以及实验车或概念车。总共将展出近1,000种不同的车辆。此外，与会者还将有机会看到众多配件和汽车相关展品，竞赛车辆和项目，古董车和经典收藏车。
芝加哥车展在McCormick Place综合大楼的南北展厅中占地超过100万平方英尺。 McCormick Place提供总面积达270万平方英尺的展厅，另有700,000平方英尺的会议室供应。芝加哥车展于1901年首次上演，是北美最大的车展，其举办次数超过了该大陆的任何其他汽车博览会，2018年是芝加哥车展的第108届。
芝加哥汽车贸易协会（CATA）是美国历史最悠久，规模最大的大都市经销商组织。自1935年以来首次负责组织芝加哥车展至今，CATA一直在组织、策划、宣传芝加哥车展。1935年，芝加哥车展从剧院移至国际圆形剧场，1971年移至现在所在地McCormick。1943年至1945年，由于第二次世界大战和美国汽车制造业的暂歇，芝加哥车展暂停了。1950年，芝加哥车展恢复并带来了更加强劲的汽车旋风。直至1953年，芝加哥车展成为了独具其风格的世界知名车展。
芝加哥车展多年来，芝加哥车展上的亮点有：Corvette克尔维特（1953）的首次亮相；第二代Chevrolet Camaro雪佛兰卡马罗汽车，旁帝克火鸟（1970）首次亮相。坐落于巨大的McCormick中心，芝加哥车展不仅可以容纳好几打概念车和出厂车，并曾为克莱斯勒提供了一整条试车跑道。芝加哥车展重要新型汽车、经典收藏车和概念车的均会亮相。
芝加哥车展在概念方面，芝加哥车展让我们一睹Honda Civic Si的风采：200马力，2.0升四缸发动机。 另一款领头概念车是Dodge Nitro SUV，底座与吉普自由人Jeep Liberty一样。虽然芝加哥车展规模稍小于底特律车展，但是它仍是一部分新型汽车的登台起点。芝加哥车展囊括了多个来自世界的新车的首次亮相，如丰田FJ酷路泽Toyota FJ Cruiser， 勤劳公羊道奇Dodge Mega Cab Ram，奔驰Mercedes-BenzS65 AMG 超级小轿车。凯迪拉克Cadillac展示了它最新的DTS轿车，别克Buick 首次展出其新型车，同样还有来自现代hyundai的概念车和来自水星Mercury的两款新车。
起源于1901年的芝加哥车展算得上历史最为悠久的大型车展之一了，与北美国际车展和纽约车展稍有不同，芝加哥车展并没有过多引领国际汽车潮流风向标的属性，而更像是一场针对美国本地车迷的盛宴。

展会报告(Show Reports):
The 2025 Chicago Auto Show came to a successful close on Monday, Feb. 17, after a 10-day run at McCormick Place. The 117th edition of the show welcomed nearly 217,000 attendees to experience the latest cars, trucks and SUVs, automotive technology and electric vehicles—producing a record number of in-vehicle experiences of more than 100,000.
The 2025 show featured an array of vehicles new to show attendees including the debut of the 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid, 2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness and the 2025 Jeep Wagoneer S Limited. Manufacturers including Polestar, Rivian and VinFast participated in the Chicago Auto Show for the very first time.
Other notable new vehicles at the show included the Cadillac Optiq, Cadillac Vistiq, Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Ford Expedition, 2026 Honda Passport, 2026 Hyundai IonIQ 9, Lamborghini Revuelto, Lucid Gravity, Nissan Murano, Nissan Armada, Toyota 4Runner, Rivian R2, Rivian R3X and Volkswagen Tiguan. Concept vehicles also graced the show floor including Chrysler’s Halcyon and Acura’s Performance EV along with several custom concept SEMA builds from Kia, Jeep and Toyota.
Four indoor test tracks provided consumers ample opportunities to experience the latest vehicles. The fan-favorite Camp Jeep track returned and celebrated its 20th anniversary at the 2025 Chicago Auto Show. Without even leaving the show floor, attendees experienced Camp Jeep’s thrill rides on an interactive indoor off-road course featuring Cherokee, Gladiator, Wagoneer and Wrangler. A Chicago Auto Show staple since 2005, Camp Jeep has provided more than 600,000 test rides at the show.
Ford also brought back its popular “Built Wild” indoor test track which featured the Bronco family of vehicles and gave attendees the thrill of conquering “Bronco Mountain,” a 38-degree hill inside of the show. Powered by ComEd, Chicago Drives Electric’s indoor EV track expanded from one track to two this year and featured a dozen total brands offering ride-alongs in 25 different models.
“The Chicago Auto Show is designed with consumers at the forefront, and the 2025 show was a true testament to our commitment to delivering a dynamic and engaging experience for every attendee that comes through the doors,” said Chicago Auto Show General Manager Jennifer Morand. “From hands-on experiences to showcasing the most innovative advancements in the industry, the show is all about connecting people with the technology and vehicles that are shaping the future.”
Between the show’s four indoor test tracks as well as outdoor test drive experiences by Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Ford, Jeep, Ram, Subaru and Tesla, the show produced more than 100,000 in-vehicle driving experiences, setting a new record.
This year’s themed days and special events drew large crowds and attracted new audiences to the show. The Toyota Miles Per Hour run once again provided a unique twist for a winter race. Held indoors at the Chicago Auto Show and organized by the Chicago Area Runners Association, more than 700 runners paced a 60-minute run through the show floor for participants to record their own miles per hour. Toyota awarded the top three winners for men’s and women’s times at its post-run celebration. Over the course of four years, Miles Per Hour logged more than 15,000 miles indoors at the Chicago Auto Show.
Also returning to the show was the popular Chicago Friday Night Flights craft beer sampling event. This one-of-a-kind indoor event drew nearly 400 attendees that sampled different craft beers from more than 20 local breweries as they took in the show.
Presented by Powering Chicago, Rivian and the U.S. Army, the second annual Automotive Career Day hosted more than 700 students for a lively morning filled with educational panels, networking and a career fair featuring local automotive employers and student-led engineering organizations. Moderated by ABC 7 Chicago’s Diane Pathieu, students heard from a range of speakers from manufacturers, such as BMW and Rivian, to local universities featuring the Illini Solar Car Team, Illini EV Concept and UIC Society of Engineers.
The 2025 show saw the success of two new exhibit additions to the show floor. Overlanding Chicago drew consumers into a specialized space focusing on overlanding vehicles and an outdoors adventure-seeking lifestyle. Plus, the Family Zone garnered high foot-traffic, offering families a safe and fun environment that allowed kids to enjoy themselves while being immersed in the auto show experience.
“What’s unique about the Chicago Auto Show is its ability to draw audiences spanning a variety of backgrounds, whether or not they are in the market to purchase a new vehicle,” said 2025 Chicago Auto Show Chairwoman Kelly Webb Roberts. “The Chicago Auto Show is much more than a showcase of vehicles; it’s a dynamic experience that brings together automotive enthusiasts, industry professionals and everyday consumers, creating a space where innovation, passion and curiosity collide.”
Fans’ engagement translated to social media as well. Initial Meltwater data reports the Chicago Auto Show's message reached more than 93 million over the last 90 days with more than 600 YouTube videos produced to date. Chicago Auto Show social channels alone generated more than seven million impressions with the overall sentiment being positive. Many fans have been excited about the return of manufacturers and new spaces at the show across all social platforms.
Finally, the show saw support from new and returning sponsors. 2025 premier partners included Cars.com and ComEd along with supporting sponsorships from NASCAR Chicago, AT&T, Shell Recharge and U.S. Army. Joining the sponsorship line-up in 2025 were Drive Chicago, Bally’s Chicago and the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry.
The Chicago Auto Show is already gearing up with plans to return to McCormick Place in February 2026. Tentative dates for the 2026 show are Feb. 5-6 (Media Preview); Feb. 6 (First Look for Charity); and Feb. 7-16, 2026
