auto dealership
Explanation:
For non-European countries, an auto dealership (or simply an auto dealer) will do ad is better. Any dealer will have a demonstration atrium, but they very rarely use the European word 'salon' - only for cars like Lamborgini and Porsche.

спасибо всем, этот термин мне представляется наиболее точным, поскольку речь идет о магазине. хотя для России можно было бы ввести термин "automobile/car salon" или что-то в этом роде, поскольку машины то там продаются дорогие.

agree  Elaine Freeland (X): Yes, because here you'll hardly see "shops" that sell different makes: normally, each producer has their own dealer and their own shop. In Europe, it's the same
