Used Vehicle Fair opens with strong footfall and buying momentum

The 18th Feria del Vehículo Selección Ocasión opened its doors at Feria Valencia with steady visitor traffic and a clear buying mood. From the first hours, shoppers browsed the halls through an offer of more than 2,000 vehicles from 42 brands and dealers, in an edition marked by variety, immediate availability and competitive terms. The event is reinforced by the 2nd Caravaning Fair, which adds over a hundred motorhomes, campers and caravans and is drawing new visitor profiles interested in touring holidays; the day included a visit from Vicente Lafuente, president of the Valencian Business Confederation. Used electrified vehicles drew much of the attention: according to dealer association GANVAM, their sales grew nearly 30% in the Valencian Community in the first quarter. The line-up includes electric models such as the Kia EV3, Kia EV4 and BYD Dolphin, plug-in hybrids like the BYD Seal U DM-i, Seal 6 DM-i and Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, and hybrids such as the Toyota Yaris Cross and Lexus LBX. The fair runs until Sunday 19 April, from 11:00 to 20:00 (Sunday until 18:00), with online tickets two euros cheaper than at the box office.
