Also withdrawing from the January show are Mitsubishi, Suzuki, Land Rover, Rolls-Royce and Ferrari.The Chicago auto show is scheduled for February.Both shows draw media attention to new products from all over the world, in addition to displaying the product line-ups to local consumers.Nissan corporate spokesman Alan Buddendeck said the decision reflects the current state of the industry and not the Detroit and Chicago shows themselves
