MarketScale at the Chicago Auto Show

The world’s roadways will look very different in the near future if the 2019 Chicago Auto Show is any indication. Every major car manufacturer attended the event, one of the largest automotive expos on the calendar each year.

MarketScale spoke with several of the most recognizable companies in the industry to see what they are bringing to drivers this year. Everything from autonomous vehicles to electric ones were on display and there was no shortage of innovations to talk about.

Not everyone at a car show is an expert though, so we thought we should also have a bit of fun with Chicagoans and test their automotive IQ as well.

Wait until the end of the video to see if you can guess which car names are real and which are fake!
