"10 years have passed since the Parco Valentino Show, this is the third edition of the Turin Auto Show, probably one of the richest in terms of the presence of manufacturers and products on display with many engines, including electric, plug-in, hybrid and thermal. Obviously there is a strong presence of Chinese brands that must make themselves known in Italy and Europe", underlines Levy.
