Miami Auto Show 2025: The International Auto Salon Redefining Mobility, Economics and Spectacle.
(By Maurizio-Fonanta-Destefano-Maqueda) From September 26 to October 5, 2025, the Miami Beach Convention Center will once again ignite with the Miami International Auto Show, an expo that does far more than display cars: it channels capital, tourism, technological innovation and cultural impulses that shape 21st-century mobility.

Consumption and Tourism Engine
The show draws tens of thousands of domestic and international visitors, generating hotel occupancy, revenue for dining, transport and leisure, and stimulating local dealer sales. In markets like Miami, automotive events act as multipliers: every dollar spent on tickets generates multiple dollars across the local value chain (hotels, transport, services).
Capital and Investment Signals
The display of EV technologies and digital platforms — and the presence of conglomerates such as Stellantis with several brands — acts as a catalyst for private investors and institutional funds seeking exposure to electrification, automotive software and mobility-as-a-service (Stellantis, public communications).
Employment and Supply Chain
Beyond the glamour, stand construction, logistics, catering, security and technical services represent thousands of hours of temporary work and activate local and regional subcontracting networks.
History and Symbolic Resonance
The Miami International Auto Show began in 1971 and from its inception has been a space where automotive aspiration intersects with regional economy. Over the years it has contributed philanthropically (including work with Ronald McDonald House) and evolved into a platform that blends commercial exhibition with public spectacle (historical and organizing sources: event site; Ronald McDonald House Charities South Florida).
Technology, Discourse and Power
-
Marshall McLuhan warned that “the medium is the message” (Understanding Media, 1964). Applied to the show: the vehicle is no longer merely a product; it is a medium — a software platform, a data node, an element of social identity. Lewis Mumford, in The City in History (1961), describes how forms of transport reconfigure urban life.
-
The Miami Auto Show is the showcase where these configurations are negotiated: cities designed for batteries or for inhabitants? Mobility as a consumption experience or as an urban right?
What to Expect in 2025 — Relevance for Public and Investor
-
Electrification front and center: EV launches and test drives; charging stations in the convention center garage (level 5) and debate over public and private infrastructure.
-
Immersive experiences: simulators, custom builds and the “Memory Lane” exhibition — a reminder that nostalgia coexists with disruption.
-
Brand strategies: conglomerates presenting multiple brands (e.g., Stellantis with Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, RAM and FIAT) to capture different segments at a single event, optimizing cost per impact and exposure (brand communications).
