The 2024 Paris Motor Show highlights the electric vehicle and SUV trends amid a challenging economic landscape, with significant participation from brands like Renault, which showcases the electric Renault 5 and 4. Chinese manufacturers, including Leapmotor, make a measured debut, while established European automakers like Volkswagen and BMW return to reconnect with consumers. The event reflects a market grappling with slow sales growth and a notable decline in electric vehicle demand.

He emphasizes the importance of effective marketing and customer guidance amidst current market confusion over various powertrains. With a focus on synergy and product launches, Ficili is optimistic about the future despite challenges in the luxury segment.
