So you may notice visitors leaving not only with photos but with booking papers. The previous editions recorded tens of thousands of orders.
Electric vehicles will again be a major focus in the event. You can expect Chinese brands to display affordable EVs, while Japanese companies present hybrids and updated technology models. Also, Tailândia wants to become a regional EV production hub, and the exhibition reflects that plan very well.

As the 2026 edition approaches, competition between traditional automakers and new electric brands will likely become stronger. For companies, it shapes future strategy. And for you, it is a chance to see and maybe buy the cars that may soon appear on Southeast Asian roads.
