The 2020 Detroit Auto Show
has been canceled. As originally reported by The Detroit Free Press, the annual auto expo has been nixed because the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) has designated its host venue, the TCF Center, as a coronavirus field hospital site.

Formally known as the North American International Auto Show, the expo had been poised to move to June after occupying a winter time slot on the international car show circuit for decades. The reenvisioned show, which was to include a brace of outdoor activities including ride-and-drives and self-driving car displays, will instead be held in June of 2021. 

NAIAS had been scheduled to have its media days on June 9 and 10, with public show days
