"Car shoppers can get the inside scoop on all of the new cars that will debut at the LA Auto Show by visiting our comprehensive auto show section on KBB.com," said Jack R. Nerad, executive editorial director and executive market analyst for Kelley Blue Book.  "The festivities don't begin until the turkey leftovers are gone, but we've already started mounting our full-coverage assault on the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show.  The roster of new faces at the first North American event of the new season promises to be formidable again this year, and includes at least 20 world debuts along with a similar number of vehicles set to make their first appearances in U.S. trim."

In addition, Kelley Blue Book, along with AutoTrader.com, will feature a co-branded booth at 11 U.S. auto shows during the 2012-2013 auto show season.  This marks the first time that 86-year-old Kelley Blue Book will have a consumer presence at auto shows around the country.  After making its mid-November debut at the Seattle Auto Show, the booth will be stationed at the Los Angeles Auto Show to help consumers navigate the three major phases of the car-shopping journey: "explore and decide," "compare and find" and "sell or trade."  The booth features robust information and interactive tools, like a new-car challenge game that leverages motion-sensing technology, to create a fun and educational experience for visitors. 

The LA Auto Show is open to the public from Friday, November 30 through Sunday, December 9.
