The June show will spotlight Vietnam’s automotive supply chain innovations

Vietnam’s automotive market has evolved significantly over recent years, fuelled by a growing economy, awareness of environmental issues and changing consumer preferences within the country.
With these developments attracting global attention, Automechanika Ho Chi Minh City is an important event for industry players looking to capitalise on an attractive investment environment and Vietnam’s status as an emerging economic power.
Set to take place at Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center (SECC) from 19 to 21 June 2025, organisers say the exhibition provides an ideal gateway for networking, knowledge exchange, and product showcases for both global and local firms.
“Vietnam’s automotive industry has seen a growing consumer base that is becoming younger and more dynamic,” Messe Frankfurt (HK) General Manager, Fiona Chiew, said.
“This has led to an increased demand for passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles and fleets, particularly in the compact car segment, as well as a shift in preferences towards advanced technologies and sustainable innovations.
“Automechanika Ho Chi Minh City aims to address these changes across the entire auto supply chain, while engaging end users through interactive events, conferences, workshops, and more to show the accessibility of the market.”
A significant segment of this participant population is the rising middle class, increasingly concentrated in urban areas across the country.
“To capitalise on emerging market opportunities, international brands have made notable entries into the Vietnamese market,” Fiona said.
“This attests to the thriving investment landscape fostered by the country’s government, consumers, and businesses, driving growth within the industry, as is reflected throughout the show.”
The future of the auto industry will be the focus of the Automotive Mobility Solutions Zone, which will feature a range of advanced technologies and green solutions centring around key themes in the supply chain, including digital technology, electrification, connectivity, logistics, and manufacturing.
To further promote the sharing of ideas between the global landscape and the Vietnamese sector, the Automotive Mobility Solutions Conference will return to complement the exhibits, bringing together insights from brands, professors, government officials, and experts.
They will discuss a diverse range of topics relevant to the development of Vietnam’s auto industry and international markets, including energy solutions and new energy vehicles (NEVs), digitalisation and connected vehicle technologies, battery technologies and charging facilities, autonomous driving technologies, cybersecurity, parking and security systems, logistics and supply chain optimisation, advanced manufacturing technologies, quality control and R&D, and ESG and sustainability.
Alongside this, the Automotive Repair and Maintenance; Body and Paint; Care and Detailing; Oils, Lubricants and Fuels; Accessories and Customising segments will all showcase the latest advancements in repair and maintenance equipment for various powertrain technologies.
Additionally, the returning Collision Repair Training Workshop will demonstrate some of these tools in action, with theoretical discussions and practical demonstrations on the latest technologies and equipment setting the stage for comprehensive training programmes.
The workshops will focus on green solutions for ICE vehicle types and new energy vehicles (NEVs).
Furthermore, to captivate new generations of end users, autoFEST@HCMC makes a comeback to celebrate the auto community and its various subcultures, trends, and interests.
