Four indoor test tracks provided consumers ample opportunities to experience the latest vehicles. The fan-favorite Camp Jeep track returned and celebrated its 20th anniversary at the 2025 Chicago Auto Show. Without even leaving the show floor, attendees experienced Camp Jeep’s thrill rides on an interactive indoor off-road course featuring Cherokee, Gladiator, Wagoneer and Wrangler. A Chicago Auto Show staple since 2005, Camp Jeep has provided more than 600,000 test rides at the show. Ford also brought back its popular “Built Wild” indoor test track, which featured the Bronco family of vehicles and gave attendees the thrill of conquering “Bronco Mountain,” a 38-degree hill inside of the show. Powered by ComEd, Chicago Drives Electric’s indoor EV track expanded from one track to two this year and featured a dozen total brands offering ride-alongs in 25 different models. 6 CATA UP TO SPEED
