There will also be booths for exhibitors to showcase car accessories and gadgets.

"While COTY2U 2012 will have a celebratory atmosphere, it is important to point out that this is a serious autoshow with an important goal, which is to provide motorists with the information they need to make intelligent purchase choices and to promote safety among road users by educating them about new safety standards, tips and the latest technology available," said Yamin Vong, editor of Cars, Bikes & Trucks.
