Chongqing’s diverse and multidimensional mobility scenarios, coupled with the rapid development of its NEV industry in recent years, have created a real-world testing ground for cutting-edge intelligent driving technologies from around the globe.
In 2024, the city produced 953,000 NEVs—a 90.5% year-on-year increase. Chongqing’s total vehicle output reached 2.5401 million units, surpassing Guangzhou and ranking among the top three provinces and cities in China.
Thanks to its complex urban terrain and robust smart driving infrastructure—including a charging network and integrated vehicle-road-cloud systems—Chongqing has attracted over 100 global auto brands to showcase their latest mass-produced advanced autonomous driving models at the upcoming exhibition.
The exhibition will showcase smart driving technologies, including emotion-interactive cockpits, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) safety solutions, and intelligent connectivity. It will highlight how these innovations adapt to Chongqing’s unique road conditions and reveal several debut models.
Driven by the NEV industry and the automotive sector’s shift to intelligence, Chongqing is speeding up the development of next-gen mobility. Companies like Changan Auto are expanding into areas like intelligent robotics and low-altitude economy, paving the way for the future of transportation.
For the first time, the exhibition will introduce displays on the low-altitude economy and smart robotics and partner with exhibitors to present immersive future mobility experiences. Attendees can expect multi-scenario smart driving demonstrations, including land and water, along with autonomous shuttle services onsite.
