SEMA 2018

It’s almost that time of year - SEMA time! I’ve posted about this aftermarket show in years past, but every year brings something new and exciting to explore! Let’s check out some of what we might see this year.

Ford Motor Company

I suspect Ford will have their usual outdoor display and track, and according to the SEMA website, will display the following vehicles: 2019 Ranger, 2019 Edge ST, 2018 Ford Super Duty, 2018 EcoSport, 2018 Expedition, 2018 Mustang (2.3L & 5.0L GT), 2018 F-150, 2018 Raptor, and the 2018 Transit.

Based on my past experience, the Ford exhibit is one of the most dynamic at SEMA, with off-road portions, drift portions, and outdoor shopping areas. There’s also indoor exhibits, showcasing modified SUVs and trucks. With trucks and SUVs growing in popularity, I’d expect to see modified versions of the new Ranger as well as the Edge ST taking on the track.

I highly recommend checking Ford out if you’re headed to the show!

Hyundai

Hyundai will have a modified Ioniq Electric Ultimate Street Car fitted with the upcoming Kona Electric’s motor. This gives it a 70% power boost, while also having upgraded water pumps and lowering springs for the suspension. In addition to this, it looks as if a modified Veloster N Ultimate Street Car will make an appearance.

Other Exhibits

Other displays include information on aftermarket accessories, performance modifications, and technology modifications such as blind-spot indicators. SEMA is an excellent show to not only experience Las Vegas, but to also a solid place to gain ideas about what modifications you might want to make to your own car or may see in future OEM builds.

Keep your eyes peeled for more rides from SEMA 2018!
