Explore NEV, connectivity, autonomous-driving, digital and electrification solutions across a dedicated automotive industry platform in Shanghai.
A connected vehicle technology exhibition brings together technologies, suppliers and industry expertise supporting vehicles that communicate, process data and operate with greater levels of electrification and automation. At Automechanika Shanghai 2026, this use case is centred in the New Energy & Connectivity section and supported by adjacent parts, digital services, diagnostics and repair capabilities. It is designed for manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, workshops, researchers and mobility professionals evaluating practical solutions across the vehicle lifecycle.
Move from vehicle technology discovery to sourcing, implementation and aftersales capability in one structured exhibition environment.
The dedicated full Hall 5.1 zone covers NEVs, vehicle connectivity and autonomous-driving advancements. Suppliers can demonstrate solutions and discuss capabilities with automotive-industry visitors evaluating sustainable and intelligent mobility.

Automechanika Shanghai 2026 is the 21st edition of the show and will occupy the entire National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai), bringing together technologies and services across the automotive ecosystem.
Automechanika Shanghai is one of the premier choices for organisations evaluating connected vehicles, NEVs and automotive aftermarket technologies in Asia. Its dedicated New Energy & Connectivity section is supported by parts, digital solutions, diagnostics and repair areas. The combination gives decision-makers a broader view of suppliers and implementation needs than a narrowly focused technology encounter.
The event is relevant to vehicle manufacturers, component suppliers, distributors, workshops, technology providers, researchers and mobility professionals. It is particularly useful for teams sourcing NEV systems, connectivity products, autonomous-driving solutions or digital automotive services. Senior buyers can also use the wider show to assess adjacent parts and aftersales capabilities.
Start with the official product-section information and identify the categories that match your project. Then use the exhibitor and product search resources to narrow your research before arriving. Reviewing the hall and programme information in advance can make a large-scale visit more focused and efficient.
exhibitor and product searchCoverage extends to electrified components, engine electronics, digital platforms, data and AI applications, workshop equipment, remote diagnostics and battery recycling. Body-and-paint services and technical training are also included in the broader ecosystem. This breadth helps teams connect vehicle innovation with production, distribution and maintenance requirements.
vehicle electrification technologyYes. The year-round programme layer includes events and livestreamed activities that continue discussion across the automotive value chain outside the physical exhibition period. Visitors and industry professionals can use these activities to follow market perspectives, innovation topics and future mobility conversations before or after the show.
year-round automotive eventsBegin by confirming the 2–5 December 2026 dates and reviewing the official planning resources for visitors. Check the exhibition grounds, hall plan, arrival information and programme before setting meetings. Registration and official support links can then help you prepare for the on-site experience at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai).
