Organizers said the show will come back "stronger than ever in 2023" after the event planned for next February was postponed because of coronavirus-related issues.

Organizers of the event are switching its traditionally chilly venue in alpine Europe to the balmy Middle East.

The Geneva show will return in 2022 after a two-year absence. It will keep the automobile as its focus, Sandro Mesquita, CEO told Automotive News Europe.

In an email to Automotive News Europe, a spokesperson for the event organizers, the Geneva International Motor Show (GIMS), confirmed that the show has been given the green light.
