Earlier this week, at the New York International Auto Show (NYIAS), car manufacturers unveiled a lineup of new and concept cars for the auto industry and the public to revel and revere.
Just before the doors opened to the general public, however, together with an esteemed group of women bloggers, I was able to get a sneak peek of events. SheBuysCars, Toyota and NYIAS, who were the organizers and sponsors of the Girls’ Night Out event, hosted a wonderful presentation and fun events for what was, perhaps, the first female-focused gathering of its kind at NYIAS.
According to an article in Forbes:
Here’s what is true: Women buy just over half of all cars sold in the United States and take part in 80 percent of all family car-buying decisions. And women car buyers do more research than men, generally speaking.
As a tech enthusiast and blogger who has been to my fair share of car and auto media events, I absolutely appreciated the girls’ night out presented by SheBuysCars. It was a platform for the NYIAS to speak to us directly, and for us, women and members of the media, to get a firsthand look at the some of the most sleek, chic and technologically-advanced cars—even if some were just for show.
I loved that my friends and fashion experts, Audrey and Vera, were on hand to discuss trends in fashion. More often than not, style and fashion trends are parallel with style aspects of new cars. The colors, designs and how it all meshes together, makes all the style choices come full circle.
Just a few of the cars and sights I loved while taking a tour of the NYIAS showroom floor:
The NYIAS is open until tomorrow, if interested in checking out these rides for yourself.
