“The theme is ‘Ignite Your imagination,” Dan Moyer, executive director, Greater Lehigh Valley Auto Dealers Association, said at the Feb. 18 media preview.

“There are going to be so many cars and trucks that have the latest technology,” Moyer said of the Auto Show theme.

There will be 140,000-square-feet of the latest in automotive technology, including some 500 new vehicles, classic vehicles, custom and tuner vehicles, crossover vehicles, hybrid and full-electric models, and trucks showcased in three venues: Goodman Pavilion, Rauch Fieldhouse and Stabler. There will be 70 automakers represented.

“We’ll have a dozen more manufacturers at our show than any North American Auto Show,” Moyer said.

For Dan Moyer, the Lehigh Valley Auto Show is a family affair.

His daughter, Kristie Moyer, director, Shiftin2Gear, is running the Shiftin2Gear Tuner Show, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. March 22, with 70 custom-tuned and modified cars.

Kristie Moyer’s car, a 2006 Mitsubishi Evo, is decked out in Celestial Unicorn, a film applique that changes from hues of purple to green to gold, and black-glass tinting by Black Glass Tinting LLC, owned and operated by Travis Yohe, with locations in the Lehigh Valley and Lancaster.

Dan Moyer’s wife, Debbie, was at the Auto Show preview. She drives a 2011 Nissan 370Z. Dan Moyer has a 2024 Mercedes. The family lives in Salisbury Township.

The Auto Show ignites with “Gala Preview Night,” 5:30 p.m. March 19 on the Goodman Campus. The Gala benefits the Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Pediatric Unit.

“It really affirms that caring for children is in our DNA,” Michael Spigel, president and CEO, Good Shepherd Rehabilitation, said of Good Shepherd’s mission.

Singer-Songwriter Kendal Conrad will sing the national anthem at the gala. Cunningham & Associates, a rock ‘n’ roll cover band, will entertain.

The 2025 Auto Show has expanded electric and hybrid vehicle showcases, highlighting the latest advancements in automotive sustainability; daily “Tasting Events,” where attendees can enjoy local libations while exploring the show, and “Marketplace Marvel,” featuring local businesses.
