The new name of Detroit's convention center will have come and gone without the venue ever getting to host an auto show. It will soon be called the Huntington something-or-other.

Alexis Garcin discussed Michelin's sustainability plans and its efforts to steer its operations and 20,000 U.S. employees through the pandemic on Wednesday via Q'd Up Mobility, a series of Web presentations hosted by the Detroit auto show.

Show organizers cited the ongoing pandemic as well as a desire to take advantage of an upcoming 100,000-square-foot expansion to the Javits Center.

Automakers are being offered an all-inclusive package that covers the cost of their stands and accommodations for guests for the smaller, three-day event, according to documents seen by Automotive News Europe.
