PHOTOS: Singapore Motorshow 2020 kicks off with electric models as the main draw

SINGAPORE – The Singapore Motorshow 2020 kicked off at Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre today (9 January) across two floors with much fanfare. This year, Audi, Nissan and Chinese owned-brands BYD and MG debut electric car models at the show.

Audi makes its market introduction with the e-tron, a full electric model that boasts up to 300kW, thanks to its two electric motors. It also comes with an integrated electrohydraulic brake control system, and Audi claims to be the first carmaker to use such a solution in an electrically powered series production vehicle.
