Audi joins the likes of BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche who announced they will not be part of the 2019 show.

In a statement to Automotive News, Audi said they have "had a long and successful history at NAIAS, debuting countless models that Audi customers enjoy today. For 2019, we have decided that we will not participate in NAIAS. We will continue to evaluate Auto Shows on a case by case basis relative to the timing of our product introductions and the value the show brings from a media and consumer perspective."
