Tesla to return to Paris motor show after six years

Six years after its last appearance at the Paris auto show, Tesla Inc. will return to the event Oct. 14-20 with a display of its complete lineup – including the Cybertruck, which is not sold in Europe.

The addition of Tesla, announced by the show organizers, is another indication that the Paris event is enjoying something of a comeback after a lackluster 2022 edition that was bypassed by most European brands but had a strong Chinese presence.

This year, Tesla is joining Renault Group (Alpine, Dacia and Renault), four Stellantis brands (Alfa Romeo, Citroen, Peugeot and Leapmotor), three Volkswagen Group brands (Audi, Skoda and VW), Ford, Kia and China’s BYD as major exhibitors.
