Philadelphia Auto Show: From Volkswagen to Stranger Things

2023 Philadelphia Auto Show preview from the Pennsylvania Convention Center

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The 2023 Philadelphia Auto Show is cruising into the Pennsylvania Convention Center this weekend.

CBS Philadelphia was at the convention on Friday morning for a preview. From classic cars to dream rides, there will be plenty of cool vehicles to check out, including some from iconic movies and TV shows.

Fans of the Netflix series Stranger Things should have a really great time. You can see one of the vans that Eleven flipped over and bad boy Billy's Chevrolet Camaro.

The fearsome Demogorgon from the show was there too.  

For fans of Scooby-Doo, the gang's Mystery Machine is parked nearby.

Volkswagen is showing off its all-electric vehicle, the ID.4. The starting price is under $40,000 and the car has a range of 275 miles per charge. CBS Philadelphia spoke with a Volkswagen product specialist about the car. You can watch the video below.
