Located on the wonderful Zaha Hadid Bridge, Mobility City celebrates the anniversary of its opening in 2023. A year of incessant activity that allows it to consolidate itself as a benchmark in the sustainable mobility sector of the future, although, as we know in LA ESCUDERÍA, always with a eye on the past. This is endorsed by the almost 200.000 visitors who have passed through its facilities and the hundred activities organized.
During this first year, Mobility City has proven to be much more than a museum. In fact, it has become a vector of innovations and pioneering solutions, always with the most cutting-edge technology in virtual and augmented reality spaces, avant-garde designs with prototypes of the mobility of the future and a vision towards sustainability. It has become an entity that welcomes and amplifies new narratives in the automotive sector.
There is no doubt that the exhibition space, also known as the Mobility Museum, has been one of the great attractions of 2023. Starting with the sample “The superclass that changed the species”, a meeting with some of the most iconic vehicles in automotive history. On the other hand, “Mars: the conquest of a dream”, an interesting tour of the most unknown side of the red planet, has also been among the most notable exhibitions.
MANY ACTIVITIES
During this first year in operation, Mobility City has hosted important events in the mobility sector. For example, hosting and organizing the Impulso Awards for Innovation in sustainable mobility, with the help of ANFAC, FACONAUTO and SERNAUTO.
