The 2026 Beijing International Automotive Exhibition kicked off on April 24, running simultaneously at two venues: the Capital International Exhibition & Convention Center and the China International Exhibition Center (Shunyi Hall). Spanning 380,000 square meters, the event broke records for both global auto shows and Beijing's exhibition history, becoming the world's largest and most influential auto show. For the first time, the exhibition brought together the entire automotive industry chain under one roof — from vehicle manufacturing and core components to intelligent driving technology and new energy ecosystems. Leading supply chain and tech companies from 21 countries and regions took part, with more than 1,400 vehicles on display. Photos: Li Hao/GT
