3月底，由德国汽车工业协会（VDA）主办的德国国际车展（IAA）宣布乔迁新址：2021年，慕尼黑将接替法兰克福，成为德国国际车展（IAA）的主办城市。此前70多年里，展会一直在法兰克福盛大举办。VDA主席Hildegard Müller表示， “此前，柏林、汉堡和慕尼黑被列入继任主办城市候选名单。入围的三个城市都提出了雄心勃勃且令人信服的计划，以进一步推动展会的发展。这是一场势均力敌的竞标，我对此表示衷心的感谢。”为吸引展会落户，慕尼黑所在的巴伐利亚州政府承诺将投入1500万欧元。

IAA brings mobility to Munich

Munich is set to host the completely redesigned IAA， having beaten Berlin and Hamburg for the privilege. The first IAA to be staged in the Bavarian capital will take place from September 7 to 12， 2021， one week ahead of the Oktoberfest. According to VDA president Hildegard Müller： "It was a very close race， and for this I sincerely wish to thank those involved."

As well as showcasing the fascination of the car， it is expected to be the trigger for the host city to develop into a smart city with intelligent traffic concepts and innovative connectivity linking the various modes of transport – in a manner that is both sustainable and geared to peoples needs. To persuade the VDA to move the IAA to Munich， the Bavarian Government committed to spending 15 million euros. vda.de/MunichToHostIAA2021
