From November 5 to 8, 2026, Messe Zürich in Oerlikon will once again serve as a gathering place for the Swiss automotive scene for the 39th time. Around 70 brands will showcase their latest models and celebrate various premieres. Since the end of the Geneva Motor Show, Auto Zürich has been considered the country’s largest auto show, with a reputation that extends beyond its borders: In 2025, it drew 68,053 visitors—a record.
If you love classic and particularly sporty cars, Hall 6 is the place for you. Under the name MANUFAKTUR & CLASSIC, Auto Zürich is showcasing a carefully curated selection of collector’s cars, limited-edition models, and neoclassics there. In 2023, classic cars with a total value of over one million Swiss francs changed hands.
Renowned dealers, repair shops, and brands such as Emil Frey Classics, Porsche Classic, Maserati Classic, Eberhart Classic Cars, Niki Hasler, Touring Garage, Dönni Classic, and Bachmann-Brunner are represented. Zwischengas is also on site with its own booth. Swiss Classic Car AG is presenting a highlight: a Porsche 911 Speedster from the G-series with just 95 original kilometers on the odometer. A practically brand-new vehicle—one you’d be hard-pressed to find a second time.
Icons of the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s
Lutzinger Classic Car is bringing a remarkable selection to the event. On display are, among others, a 1981 BMW M1 with 17,600 kilometers on the odometer, a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7—one of only 21 built in Lindgrün— as well as a 1995 Lancia Delta HF Integrale 16V Evo 2 “Dealers Collection” with 24,500 kilometers on the odometer. Bridging the gap to the more recent past is a 2005 Ford GT, which has long since become a modern classic in its own right.
Singer and Koenigsegg at SIC Garage
SIC Garage adds a special touch: At its booth, it’s showcasing vehicles from Singer Vehicle Design and Koenigsegg. With its reimagined Porsche 911s, Singer shapes the restomod scene like almost no other manufacturer. Koenigsegg stands for Swedish hypercars produced in extremely limited numbers.
The Pininfarina booth features a truly one-of-a-kind vehicle: the Battista Novantacinque, in its original form. This unique model was created to mark the 95th anniversary of the Italian design house and marks the conclusion of the Battista series, the electric hyper-GT from Automobili Pininfarina.
The Rebirth of a Legend
A detour to Hall 3 is also worthwhile: The JAS Tensei by Pininfarina is making its Swiss debut at the Honda booth. The Italian racing team JAS Motorsport, a long-standing partner of Honda, has teamed up with Pininfarina to reinterpret the first-generation Honda NSX.
Under the carbon-fiber body lies a naturally aspirated V6 engine, enlarged to 3.4 liters by Judd, paired with a six-speed manual transmission. Only 35 units will be built.
For those who want to extend their time at the Classic Days in Zurich, there’s an additional event on Saturday. On November 7, Broad Arrow will auction off approximately 60 collector’s cars at the Dolder Grand. The preview on November 5 and 6 is open to the public and free of charge.
