Held annually at the Las Vegas Convention Center, the SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) Show is where car enthusiasts, manufacturers, and industry professionals converge to showcase, learn, and celebrate the latest in automotive technology, design, and performance.
On November 5-8, 2024, this year’s SEMA Show drew over 150,000 attendees from the United States and across the globe. The show carries a ripple effect on the aftermarket auto industry that influences build style while driving the future of the industry, which in our case, we’re talking about the latest in everything related to Chevy performance.
The SEMA Show caters to automotive diversity in exhibits, with over 2,300 companies showcasing everything from high-tech audio systems, the latest performance parts, to mind-boggling electronic vehicle technology, and that’s just scratching the surface. But the highlight of the event for us Chevy enthusiasts was previewing some of the most innovative Chevy muscle car builds on the show grounds—most being shown publicly for the very first time.
The 2024 show featured an impressive lineup of vehicles, and this year’s builders brought their A-game, which included everything from highly modified, vintage muscle cars to relatively tame-appearing rides—most backed up with the latest innovations in performance products.
