Max Major—a world-renowned mentalist living in Washington, D.C.—will deliver the 2017 SEMA Show Education Days opening keynote, Monday, October 30, from 8:30 a.m.–9:30 a.m., in Las Vegas Convention Center, Room N258. Major believes that anyone can learn to be a better communicator through a basic understanding of body language and non-verbals. He will use a combination of body language, psychology and hypnosis to teach SEMA Show attendees how to read clients and colleagues like magic. He will entertain and inform with a mixture of mind-reading demonstrations, paired with real-world takeaways that attendees can put into practice immediately.

Major’s performances, which combine magic, mentalism and hypnosis, are featured at corporate events across the country. In addition to his studies as a magician, Major relies heavily on his skills at reading body language, which he has honed over the course of 2,000 live shows. His clients include Facebook, Microsoft, Deloitte, CSX, Costco, Lockheed Martin, Booz Allen and a command performance at the residence of Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder.

In the last five years, he has been called before two Department of Defense agencies to demonstrate his innovative techniques.

Register now for the SEMA Show opening keynote.

This is the ’20 Karma Revero, caught testing outside Karma Automotive R&D facility in Costa Mesa, California, and looking very Corvette-esque.

In a bid to shed the old Fisker roots, Karma will revise the Revero’s looks significantly with all all new front end and rear. This should include new headlights, a new grille and a longer hood that extends further down its front end. At the back is a new taillight design, along with a revised rear end.

Karma is set to introduce a smaller version of the car, the Atlantic, sometime in 2019. A change from the old GM-based engine may come at the same time.

Expect to see new Karmas in 2019.

The Performance Pavilion, one of four expansion areas that accommodates automotive parts and accessories manufacturers, will include even more exhibitors this year.

The 2017 SEMA Show will once again include the Performance Pavilion, one of four expansion areas that accommodates automotive parts and accessories manufacturers, and makes it possible for them to exhibit at the premier automotive trade event taking place Tuesday–Friday, October 31–November 3, 2017, in Las Vegas.

Located to the south of the Las Vegas Convention Center, the Performance Pavilion debuted in 2015, and connects buyers to new manufacturers focused on the wheel, tire, truck, SUV and off-road market segments.

This year, the Performance Pavilion will expand to include even more exhibitors. Visitors will be able to easily walk to the Performance Pavilion from the west end of South Hall, where DUB magazine exhibits. Visitors arriving on the east side in the Bronze Lot transportation hub via taxi, hotel shuttle or a ride-sharing service will find the Continental Tire Experience, Powered by BMW, before arriving in the Performance Pavilion.

“The Performance Pavilion makes it possible for new and emerging manufacturers to participate in the SEMA Show,” said Peter MacGillivray, SEMA vice president of communications and events. “Like all the SEMA Show expansion areas, the Performance Pavilion is easy for buyers to navigate, and it successfully connects them to new exhibiting companies.”

SEMA Show expansion areas, also known as First-Time and Featured Exhibitors areas, are located in four locations:

• Performance Pavilion: Located in the outside area south of the Las Vegas Convention Center, adjacent to the Renaissance Hotel.
• Upper South: Located in the upper level of South Hall, on the east side.
• Racing Annex: Located in the Las Vegas Convention Center Meeting Rooms N100–120, between North and Central Halls just east of the Grand Lobby.
• Westgate Pavilion: Located in the Pavilion area of the Westgate Hotel, just north of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
