DETROIT – The Detroit Auto Show opens to the public on Saturday – it’s the first chance automakers get to make an impression on the general public, with scores of new models displayed in-person.
Big Three brands – Ford, GM, and Stellantis, manufacturer of Chrysler, Fiat and Jeep – have increasingly favored aggressive front-end styling, while the presence of classic cars and luxury exhibits offers attendees a chance to compare the faces of old models with new.
