This directory covers five automotive components and technology sections featured through Automechanika Shanghai 2026. I have organised the information around practical sourcing needs, from evaluating electrified vehicle systems and components to modernising workshops, supply chains, and customisation programmes. It is designed for buyers, suppliers, engineers, distributors, service operators, and industry visitors planning their time at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) from 2 to 5 December 2026. Use the tags to narrow the list; the directory is reviewed for the 2026 edition and links directly to official exhibition resources.

What Is an Automotive Components Exhibition & Sourcing Directory?

An automotive components exhibition and sourcing directory is a structured index of supplier-facing sections, technologies, and use cases available at an industry trade fair. It helps visitors move from a broad automotive category to the most relevant area for supplier discovery, technical evaluation, partnerships, or market research. This directory focuses on Automechanika Shanghai’s five core sections and the sourcing applications described by the organiser.

FAQs

How many automotive components sections are included?

This directory includes five principal sections: New Energy & Connectivity, Parts & Components, Diagnostics & Repair / Body & Paint, Digital Solutions / Services, and Accessories & Customising. Together they cover vehicle technology, component sourcing, workshops, software, supply chains, and personalisation. Visitors can use the official exhibitor search to investigate specific companies and products within those areas.

Which section is best for new-energy vehicle technology?

New Energy & Connectivity is the best starting point for NEV systems, connected vehicles, autonomous-driving developments, and sustainable-mobility solutions. The section has a dedicated expanded area in Hall 5.1 and is designed to connect technology providers with automotive-industry visitors.
