DETROIT, Mich. (WSYM) - The latest models, concept, and exotic cars are under one roof at the North American International Auto Show.

The Lego Batmobile is the newest addition to the North American International Auto Show

The show is open to the public until Saturday from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, and 9 a.m to 7 p.m. Jan. 22. It is held at the Cobo Center, 1 Washington Blvd., Detroit.

Max Muncey, Public Relations Manger for NAIAS, says last year the show brought in over 850,000 people and this year's event should top that.

"It will have over 750 cars on display for people to see," he said.

The latest addition to the showroom floor is the Lego Batmobile that Chevrolet unveiled in their exhibit. The Lego Batmobile is made from more than 340,000 lego bricks, and is almost 7 feet tall.

Disney's Pixar revealed a life-size replica of Lightning McQueen to promote the movie Cars 3, coming to theaters June 16.

"There's a mixture of real cars, concept cars, lego cars, and animated cars for the families to enjoy," adds Muncey. "It's and event where everyone can have fun."
