From 29 November to 2 December 2023, the global automotive industry will converge at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) for the 18th instalment of Automechanika Shanghai. The show will span over 300,000 sqm, a 36 percent increase compared to the previous edition. It will be the final large-scale industry event of the year for marketing, trade, education and information exchange; a prime occasion for the 5,652 exhibitors (71 percent increase from the previous edition) and buyers from around the world to discuss future cooperation. In fact, visitor pre-registration has already overtaken previous records from the 15th edition.

Ahead of the trade fair’s opening, Ms Fiona Chiew, General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, said: “Given the rise in the new energy vehicle (NEV) supply chain, in addition to transformations and upgrades in traditional sectors, many international automotive markets are turning to China to explore growing opportunities. Automechanika Shanghai can offer a link here; in the coming days, we will stand in unison with some of the most influential trendsetters shaping the automotive industry, connecting the overseas and domestic market through both business and knowledge exchange.”

Along the same lines, Ms Li Zhang, General Manager of China National Machinery Industry International Co Ltd, explained: “Driven by the innovations in connectivity, autonomy, intelligence and electrification, the automotive industry continues to transform. The changes, along with the further integration of supply chains, are leading to new industry standards that produce additional requirements for all industry players. This is why we are rooting the concept of Innovation4Mobility into all areas of the show; to provide an in-depth analysis of these industry trends. In this regard, we shine a light on the ongoing advancements and bridge gateways between China and the rest of the world, encouraging long-term development of the global ecosystem.”
