Every year, Plaza Mayor hosts the Autopartes Fair, the largest auto parts fair in Latin America, and Medellín becomes the epicenter of the continent's automotive industry. Exotic Rent a Car takes part with its own booth, so if you're attending the fair —as an exhibitor, buyer or visitor— stop by to say hello and take the chance to sort out your mobility in the city with premium car rental in Medellín.

What is the Autopartes Fair
The Autopartes Fair (Expopartes) is the largest auto parts fair in Latin America. Each edition covers more than 34,000 square meters at Plaza Mayor and brings together over 350 exhibitors from more than 25 countries, with around 22,700 visitors (national and international) and an agenda of more than 30 technical and business conferences. In short: three intense days of business, technology and networking for the entire automotive sector.

Premium rental for your time at the fair
Thousands of visitors arrive in Medellín during these dates, many from other cities and countries.

And if you want to unwind after the day, with the same vehicle you can enjoy the best things to do in Medellín with a rental car.
