The Los Angeles Auto Show came to prominence last year when it emerged from the shadow of the mammoth Detroit Auto Show by moving to November from its previous mid-January slot and received the "International" designation from the OICA for the first time since it's inception in 1907.

Los Angeles, well known for its wealth, is showing another shade of green at the Los Angeles Auto Show. "Green" vehicles are, excuse the pun, changing landscape. From the new Chevrolet Two-Mode Hybrid to the Porsche Cayenne Hybrid concept, the push for alternate fuel vehicles is playing out across the display floor of the L.A. Auto Show.

Over a dozen concept and production vehicles are expected to make their global debuts at this year's LA Show alongside some 30 vehicles making their first appearance on North American shores.
