The North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) from January 19 to 27 is no doubt the most important event for the auto industry in January.

However, it’s not the first international auto show of the year, as that distinction goes to the 2013 Auto Salon in Brussels, Belgium, which was open to the public from January 11 to 20.

If you’re looking for major world premieres, you won’t find any, as the European auto industry is keeping its newest and brightest goods for the upcoming Geneva Salon in March, but if for whatever reason you want to get your dose of European rides in both production and concept forms, there’s a gallery waiting for you right past the virtual jump.
