About cars of the world

cars of the world is a passion project dedicated to documenting the automobile in all its diversity — from the headline debuts of the big manufacturers to the forgotten marques that history nearly left behind.

Motor Show Galleries

Over the years we have photographed international motor shows across the globe — Geneva, Paris, Frankfurt, Munich, Shanghai, Beijing, Moscow, Poznań and more. Each gallery captures the cars, concepts and curiosities exactly as they appeared on the stand, organised by manufacturer so you can explore a single brand or wander the whole show.

History of Exotic Automakers

Beyond the show floor, we research and write about lesser-known carmakers from around the world — manufacturers from Egypt, Iran, Poland and beyond whose stories are rarely told elsewhere. It’s automotive history for the curious, gathered in one place.

Why it exists

The world’s automotive heritage is scattered, fragile and easy to lose. Our goal is simple: to preserve it and make it freely accessible to enthusiasts, researchers and the merely curious — everywhere.
