Car Body Xperience 2024
Getting future-ready
With its successful launch in the spring of 2023, Car Body Xperience has established itself as an important industry gathering point for car body engineers in North America and beyond.
There is never a shortage of challenges and uncertainties when it comes to designing and manufacturing new vehicle models. It is car body concepts that meet these challenges, that defy these uncertainties and that lead the industry into the future of passenger vehicle development and production that are at the heart of this conference.
In 2024, the Automotive Circle is once again inviting its international network of automotive engineering experts to come together in Rochester, Michigan and discuss all things Car Body.
Let’s get together from April 23 – 24, 2024 in Rochester, MI, USA to stay up to date with the latest car body projects and experience the latest solutions firsthand! We are looking forward to meeting you in Rochester next spring!
