CIAS

The Canadian International AutoShow has always been a must for seeing what manufacturers are excited about next — new models, wild concepts, future tech and the occasional idea that never quite makes it past the show floor.

What makes the older CIAS coverage especially fun now is looking back at cars that felt completely ordinary or showroom-new at the time, but are barely seen on the road anymore. Some were brand-new launches, some were concepts, and some have already become little time capsules of their era.

That’s half the fun of digging through these old photos now.

And if you jump ahead to my newer CIAS coverage, you may even find me test driving electric cars. Ewe.
