KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The latest and greatest in passenger cars will be on display in Kansas City, Missouri, this weekend. From new safety features, to new styles and amenities, attendees will be able to see how cars have evolved during the KC Auto Show at Bartle Hall.
Ford will show off its Co-Pilot 360 driver-assist technology. Certain features now come standard on Fusion, Edge and F-150 vehicles. The Co-Pilot provides advanced braking, pedestrian detection, blind spot awareness, adaptive cruise control and a lane keeping system which automatically steers the car to prevent it from drifting out of a lane.
Attendees will also see cars never-before displayed in Kansas City, like the Audi E-tron, the new Jeep Renegade pickup truck, the Mercedes 450 GLE with intuitive-like features allowing it to adapt to your driving behaviors, and the Lexus UX 250h, a hybrid crossover designed by the auto-maker's first female chief engineer.
Toyota and Volkswagen dealers will both be offering test drives at the event.
Chiefs player Chris Jones will be in the Honda exhibit Saturday from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. The first 200 people to see him will receive an autographed photo.
Other fun includes classic Corvettes on display, a kids corner, food trucks, and costumed superheros.

- March 7, 8 and 9 from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
