This is the spirit that spreads from Munich throughout the world.” “The intense dialogue and constructive debate with the political, social and business communities at the Open Space and IAA Summit were critical to continuing progress towards climate-neutral mobility.” Hildegard Müller, who welcomed Chancellor Olaf Scholz to the exhibition, emphasized that “the images transmitted in recent days from Munich have demonstrated our optimistic vision of the future and the mission of the German automotive industry. It also means our determination to ensure that Germany remains a car country – in terms of climate, people and prosperity.”
