Organisers of the Beijing auto show, which was scheduled to be held in late April, have postponed the event due to a recent flare-up of Covid-19 cases in China, people familiar with the matter told Reuters.

Auto China, the event's organisers, have yet to decide on a new date, the sources said, declining to be identified as the information was not yet public.

Auto China did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
