Talking point: Across the river from the auto-manufacturing hub of Windsor, Ont., the Michigan event will look different than years past as automakers shift toward electric vehicles. The show was cancelled last year in favour of a downscaled, outdoor event, and was delayed and then shelved in 2020 to accomodate a field hospital for the COVID-19 pandemic. Biden and U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg are expected to tout Democrats’ investments in EV manufacturing, including in Detroit. Ford will also reportedly unveil a redesigned Mustang at the event, which auto news website Jalopnik predicts could be the last gas-powered, manual-transmission version ever made.
