China is rising.

There are few segments of the global economy where this is more evident than the auto industry. For more car makers, China is the most important market in the world. The Middle Kingdom's new-found wealth and 1.5 billion strong population have helped create a booming car market. Not even economic uncertainty, environmental challenges, and overburdened infrastructure can put a damper on this party.

This is why the Beijing Auto Show will serve as the capstone to the 2017-2018 auto show season. 

Beijing 2018 will feature a solid mix of futuristic concepts and daily drivers from a variety of brands like BMW, Buick, Infiniti, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, Maybach, Nissan, Volkswagen, Volvo, and Polestar. Electric vehicles will be out in force in light of China's new focus on non-internal combustion mobility. 

The 2018 Beijing Auto Show will be open to the public from April 29 to May 4 at the China International Exhibition Center.

Two decades ago, China saved Buick from the GM scrap heap. Now, it's one of the country's most popular entry-level luxury brands. In Beijing, Buick introduced the Enspire to the world. The Enspire is all-electric crossover concept with 370 miles of range.

The Vision Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury concept is also made its global debut in Beijing. As its name suggests, this 750 horsepower Maybach crossover is designed to be the last word in all-electric luxury.

But if you want a Mercedes you can buy at the showroom, look no further than the new long wheelbase A-Class sedan. The Chinese-built A Class L, which is another Beijing Auto Show world debut, will feature extra legroom and is intended to be more attractive to the chauffeur-driven set.
