The SEMA Show mobile app is available at no cost at app stores and www.SEMAShow.com/app.

Plan and create personalized schedules for the 2017 SEMA Show by using the event’s official mobile app. Available at no cost at app stores and www.SEMAShow.com/app, the app’s updated design features a suite of tools that make on-site navigation and agenda creation quick and simple. In addition to confirming appointments, scheduling meetings and mapping out exhibitors, the app includes push notifications regarding special attractions to keep you connected with on-site Show action.

Here are the three must-use features of the app recommended by Show management:

1. Plan Your Show. The Show App can be used to create a schedule of Show events, to build a list of exhibitors to visit, and to plan which educational sessions to attend based on interest. Throughout Show week, you’ll stay current by tracking the events, exhibitors and sessions you’ve attended and what’s next on your personalized schedule. For Showgoers already taking advantage of the My Show Planner feature at www.SEMAShow.com/floorplan, your information can be synced with the app to upload your already created agenda.

2. Locate on the Go. Locating exhibitors while on the Show floor is easier with enhanced search features that allow you to find companies by name, product category and keywords. Once located, companies can be added to your “favorites” list and each exhibitor’s booth number and display will be highlighted on the map so you can quickly head from one appointment to the next.

3. Stay Informed. The SEMA Show App includes links to the Show’s essential info—a list of Show hours, details on ground transportation, maps of the Show grounds and halls, a list of special events with times and locations, a schedule of daily celebrity appearances and feeds from the official SEMA Show social media accounts.

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.
