It’s become a tradition of sorts for the ever-expanding Volkswagen Group to host a special event on the night before a major international car show to preview its new products, and naturally, the 2013 International Motor Show (IAA) in Frankfurt is no exception.
With so many brands under the same umbrella and the thirst to become the world’s number one automotive group, it’s no surprise that every single car marque in its portfolio had something new to show, from the accessible Skoda Rapid Spaceback to the $3 million Bugatti Grand Sport Vitesse “Jean Bugatti” special of which only three will be built.
In fact, aside the from Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, Porsche, SEAT, Škoda and Volkswagen car brands, the company’s newly acquired Ducati motorcycle unit also made a special appearance with the premiere of its new and rather sexy looking, if you don’t mind us saying so, 899 Panigale superbike.
But enough with our rambling; head past the break to enjoy the gallery for yourself and sit tight, as we’ll be bringing you all the premieres from the Frankfurt Messe tomorrow morning.
