► CAR’s A-Z of all the Paris motor show reveals
► 2024 show will feature French brands heavily
► New Renault 4, Dacia Bigster and Mini JCW are big reveals planned
The 90th edition of the Paris motor show, officially called the Mondial de L’Auto, opens its doors in October 2024. It’s France’s main car show, and alternates with IAA Mobility – the automotive and tech show based in Munich.
2024’s iteration of the Paris motor show already has some cars confirmed for attendance, with more on the way as the event draws near. We’ll keep this page up to date with all of the latest new car debuts from the show floor.
CAR’s A-Z rundown of the Paris motor show’s new car reveals
ALFA ROMEO
The brand will be one part of Stellantis’ wider attendance at the show.
ALPINE
A390_β concept
This is what will preview 2025’s electric crossover from Alpine. Expect a similar trajectory to the A290_β, which gave us a serious look at the production car’s exterior design, even if certain elements like the interior were a little more off-the-wall.
A290
The Paris show is simply another opportunity to get some more show time for Alpine’s upcoming hot hatch in production form.
BYD
‘New European product’
BYD has confirmed attendance, saying it will be promoting its range of cars at the show and launching something new for the European market.
CITROEN
‘Expressive’ concept car
Citroen’s main show star will be a new concept, likely previewing the next-generation C5 Aircross. The brand says the new concept is ‘highly expressive’ and remains ‘faithful to Citroen’s new styling language,’ adding that it ‘is no doubt that this illustration of a future model in a major segment will appeal to visitors.’
C3
We’ve already driven the new C3, as well as its electric e-C3 sibling. Citroen says this is another opportunity to get its low-cost and super-simple new city car in front of as many people as possible.
C4 facelift
Citroen is also priming an update to its wacky hatchback/crossover combo, injecting a bit of fresh design and likely some new technology into the mix. The brand says the updated models will ‘adopt a simpler, more coherent design that reflects the Brand’s new identity.’
DACIA
Bigster
We’re expecting Dacia’s larger SUV to officially make its debut here. The brand previewed a larger family SUV with the Bigster concept back in 2021, with the official one likely going on sale in the first few months of 2025.
DS
SM Tribute
Controversial one, this. While unconfirmed, it’s likely that DS will bring its SM Tribute car to the show in an effort to give it some more attention and further gauge public opinion on the design cues that are expected to make it to future DS cars.
MINI
John Cooper Works
You can’t have a Mini model without a spicy JCW version. But this time, both the combustion model and electric version of Mini’s hatch will benefit from JCW models. Leaked images online also show an Aceman JCW.
PEUGEOT
e-408
Simply a new powertrain for Peugeot’s striking crossover. The brand says the e-408 ‘completes the EV line-up’, offering around 280 miles of range from its 58.2kWh battery pack.
RENAULT
4 EV
Renault is continuing to pump that retro well with its new 4, with the first teasers of the fresh new model having already been released. The taller, boxier small EV is designed to be a crossover compatriot to the Renault 5 supermini. We’re expecting the R4 to be the biggest new car reveal of the entire show.
17 Restomod
Another week, another restomod. This one made headlines for celebrating one of Renault’s more leftfield models, partnering with designer Ora Ito.
