I think the detroit auto show is the perfect place to showcase any vehicle, regardless of whether the local populace can afford them. the NAIAS attracts people from all over the world.

To be honest, I'm willing to bet they were absent this year (along with many other makers) due to the planned date change in 2020. Why go to an autoshow in the winter (in a cold climate) when you can go in Summer?

Only time will tell, but I think we'll see them back in 2020.
