The 2020 Geneva International Motor Show, often the biggest and most extravagant auto show of the year, has been canceled due to Coronavirus concerns. The Swiss government banned gatherings of more than 1000 people from taking place until March 15th, 2020, forcing organizers to make the announcement just three days before media days were set to take place.

Geneva is often where major European manufacturers choose unveil their newest products. Audi, Bentley, Fiat, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Volkswagen, and Volvo all planned reveals for the show. Additionally, new cars from Hyundai and Toyota were expected.

Historically, Geneva has also been the place for niche manufacturers to debut their latest outrageous supercars and tuner creations. Carmakers like Ruf, Koenigsegg, and Pininfarina use the show annually to display their latest products and sell allocations to attending customers on the show floor. Pagani was set to show off its new Huayra-based Imola supercar, while Rimac was planning to reveal its production-spec C_Two EV. British firm Apex was supposed to reveal its new AP-0 electric car, and Marc Philipp Gemballa, Uwe Gemballa's son, was also preparing a car for the show.

It's possible many of these reveals will move to the New York International Auto Show in April, depending on how quickly the virus continues to spread. That show could also be canceled if things don't get any better. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.
