Shanghai CIIE 2026 highlights local R&D and intelligent vehicles

The ninth China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai takes place in early November 2026 and brings together automakers and suppliers around intelligent vehicles and embedded technologies. For all markets, the event illustrates the presentation of models, intelligent camera platforms and computing solutions, as well as the desire of foreign players such as Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz and Toyota to bring their R&D decisions closer to the Chinese market.

China is the host country and the main market covered; the United States receives only minor coverage, with no marked national differences in the sub-events provided.
