Bring public-sector priorities and automotive innovation into one of the world’s leading industry platforms for new energy, connectivity, digitalisation and sustainable mobility.
A government automotive industry conference and policy summit is a structured forum where public authorities, industry leaders, researchers and solution providers examine the policies, technologies and operating capabilities shaping mobility. At Automechanika Shanghai 2026, the exhibition environment adds practical context: delegates can connect policy questions with NEV systems, connected vehicles, autonomous-driving solutions, components, repair capability and automotive data platforms. This makes the platform useful for turning high-level priorities into informed discussions about adoption, standards, resilience, skills and sustainable transformation.
The event takes place at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) from 2 to 5 December 2026. For a broader Automechanika Shanghai business overview, delegates can explore how the show supports different organisational goals.
The strongest policy conversations are grounded in technologies and operating realities. These four areas provide a practical route from public-sector strategy to industry evidence.
Explore NEVs, vehicle connectivity and autonomous-driving advancements in the dedicated Hall 5.1 zone. The area is especially relevant to discussions about sustainable mobility, adoption pathways, connected-vehicle governance and supplier readiness.
Explore product sections
Assess engine electronics, electrified products and components spanning research, vehicle production and aftermarket applications. The section supports policy discussions about industrial innovation, supply-chain resilience and production capability.
Find exhibitors
Examine maintenance equipment, remote diagnostics, workshop safety, data management, battery recycling and technical training. These capabilities connect directly to vehicle safety, workforce development and electrified-vehicle servicing policy.

It is a forum for policymakers, public-sector leaders, manufacturers, researchers and technology providers to discuss automotive regulation, industrial development and mobility transformation. The best formats connect policy discussion with practical technologies and supplier capabilities. Automechanika Shanghai adds that practical exhibition context across NEVs, connectivity, components, repair and digital services.
Government departments, regulators, municipal mobility teams, industrial-policy professionals and public research organisations can use it to investigate market developments. Automotive manufacturers, suppliers, technology firms and service providers can contribute evidence and identify partnerships. Delegates working on NEVs, safety, digitalisation, skills, supply chains or sustainable mobility will find especially relevant content.
Start by defining the policy questions and technologies that matter most to your organisation. Then review the official exhibitor search, product sections, programme and venue information to create a focused schedule. Because the show spans 390,000 sqm, advance planning is the most efficient way to cover priority halls and meetings.
