The Los Angeles Auto Show opens Nov. 20 at the LA Convention Center with 23 automotive brands, test drives on downtown streets and a Thanksgiving family four-pack for $66.

The 10-day public show runs through Nov. 29 at 1201 S. Figueroa St., spanning nearly one million square feet, according to show organizers. Fifteen of the 23 brands will put visitors behind the wheel or in the passenger seat. All drives and rides are included with admission.

"Chevron operates here, they refine here, they sell here and they hire here," Terri Toennies, president of the LA Auto Show, said in the show's Oct. 13 announcement, reported by The Weekly Driver. Toennies called 2026 a record year for sponsorship.

Combined media and sponsorship activity is up 130% from 2025, by the show's count. Chevron with Techron is the presenting sponsor, the first energy company in that role.

What to expect on the floor

The brand lineup includes Acura, Chevrolet, Ford, Genesis, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Lucid, Nissan, Porsche, Ram, Rivian, Subaru, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen and others. Highlighted vehicles range from the Rivian R2 electric SUV to the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and the all-electric Toyota Highlander with up to 315 miles of range.

Test-drive options include the LADWP Test Track outside South Hall for electric and hybrid models, street drives departing from Gilbert Lindsay Plaza, an indoor Nissan course in South Hall, the Camp Jeep obstacle course and the Ford Bronco Built Wild off-road ride. Sign-up is on-site, first come, first served. Drivers need a valid license.

Beyond the cars

Comedian Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias is bringing five Volkswagen Type 2 buses from his personal collection. He plans meet-and-greets on select days, according to a show press release.

The Road Kings of Burbank, a hot rod club founded in 1952, will display more than 20 classic cars and custom builds ahead of the club's 75th anniversary next year. The club's history includes racing figures Don "The Snake" Prudhomme and "TV Tommy" Ivo.

Automotive designer Chip Foose and Coulson Autosports will unveil a restored Chevrolet Delray belonging to a resident affected by the Eaton Fire in Altadena. The selection process was announced at the 2025 show, and the completed car will be returned to its owner at this year's event.
