Singapore Motorshow 2019's New Stars

BY Marcus Lim

The Singapore Motorshow is back for the fifth consecutive year showcasing some exciting new models!

This year marks the fifth year that the Singapore Motorshow is back since it was suspended after a 16-year run from 1992 to 2008. Held over 4 days from today till Sunday, 13th January 2019, visitors can look forward to viewing vehicles from over 30 automotive brands including newcomers such as Skoda and Alpine, as well as stunt driving performances by British stunt driver Russ Swift.
Organised by the Motor Traders Association (MTA) of Singapore in partnership with MediaCorp, the show not only showcases new car models, but also some of the latest driving technologies. There's also the chance to meet various MediaCorp artistes and celebrity DJs from multiple radio stations who will be doing live shows over the 4 days.
The Singapore Motorshow is all about the cars, though - so here's a preview of some new models that made their local debut:
