Summary
The 46th Geneva Motor Show, open from March 11 to 21, 1976, attracted almost half a million visitors to the city on the Rhone. They were mainly offered improved models, while the genuine innovations were relatively few and far between. However, with the Bertone Navajo, the BMW 6 Series Coupé, the Mercedes 200-280E series, the Lancia Gamma and a few other premieres, there was plenty to report on for the 1,700 or so journalists who traveled to Geneva. This motor show review highlights the important new products, the stand presences and the environment of the time and shows the show in over 120 historical illustrations.

Preview (beginning of the article)
When the 46th Geneva Motor Show opened its doors on March 11, 1976, the world did not mean well for motorists.

New speed limits were introduced, and in Zurich a trial with a speed limit of 50 km/h in built-up areas was planned (and later postponed). But it was not an easy time for car manufacturers and importers either. With 189,945 new registrations in 1975, the lowest result since 1968 was achieved. The British and French brands in particular had lost ground, while Volkswagen was able to regain first place.
