As the economy worldwide struggles to regain its footing, many look to the TAS event as a measuring stick, to determine the state of the industry.
This year’s Tokyo Auto Salon event carried quite a bit of weight on its broad shoulders. As the economy worldwide struggles to regain its footing, many look to the TAS event as a measuring stick, much in the same way they look to SEMA, to determine the state of the industry. SEMA 2010, though still on wobbly legs, seemed to show signs of revitalization in the tuner market. Unfortunately, other than the CR-Z presence in Las Vegas, the Honda front seemed to be all but forgotten. Across the waters, the illustrious Tokyo Auto Salon numbers were a bit deceiving on paper. Last year’s event drew just over 400 participants, while this year’s show barely managed to eclipse the 360 mark. However, with over 600 vehicles on the display (up from last year) and an increase in foot traffic, the dark cloud hanging over the industry seems to have lifted, even if just for a few days.
