AUTOMECHANIKA KUALA LUMPUR 2025 ADVOCATES FOR GREEN AND INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENTS
The show will be held across May 15-17

Malaysian government policies and a shifting market landscape towards AI, digitalisation, electrification, energy efficiency, and sustainability have resulted in the country becoming an attractive investment destination, driven by demand for sustainable products and solutions in the automotive industry.
This year, Automechanika Kuala Lumpur 2025, taking place on 15 to 17 May, features an expanded showcase across six halls at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.
The exhibition will showcase the evolution of the Malaysian market through new zones, the return of specialised areas that spotlight new mobility solutions, the vibrant automotive culture at autoFEST@KL, and green development throughout Southeast Asia, all around the fairground.
Under its Green Investment Strategy (GIS), Malaysia is targeting seven key areas of investment potential: bioenergy, carbon capture, circular economy, energy efficiency, green hydrogen, green mobility, and renewable energy.
Nearly all of these areas intersect with the automotive sector, and green mobility, in particular, is gaining prominence in Malaysia.
The drive for sustainable development has prompted leading automotive brands to enter the Malaysian market, further enhancing its appeal for auto investors and stakeholders.
“Malaysia is gaining significant traction from foreign investments and government policies aimed at sustainable technologies,” Messe Frankfurt (HK) General Manager, Fiona Chiew, said.
“Together with Malaysia’s ASEAN chairmanship for 2025, this positions the country to strengthen its leadership in the Southeast Asian automotive industry.
“However, the development spurred by these changes is rapidly reshaping the market, and local players must prioritise workforce training, skill development, and modern technologies to adapt effectively.
“The innovations at the 2025 edition of Automechanika Kuala Lumpur are vital for Malaysia and the global automotive industry in meeting the rising demand for charging technologies, electric parts and solutions, and automotive talent, fuelled by the energy transition.”
To address the new ideas, technologies, and innovations in the market, the Automotive Mobility Solutions Zone makes a return in 2025.
The area will explore innovative solutions based on the latest advancements in green mobility as a response to the heightened focus on new energy efficiency, new materials, advanced technologies, and more.
Exhibitors will cover topics such as AI and autonomous driving, automotive manufacturing and automation, connectivity, electrification and digitalisation, energy, logistics, and warehousing and supply chain.
Other zones and events addressing the latest trends and popular subcultures include the Automotive Repair, Maintenance and Care / Body and Paint / Accessories and Customising Zone, as well as the Collision Repair Training Workshop.
These will present the latest repair and maintenance equipment and techniques for all drive technologies and vehicle concepts, along with diagnostic solutions, smart repair systems, and infotainment technologies.
Parts and Components, Electrics and Electronics, and Commercial and Fleet will also return as core product categories of the show.
Once again, autoFEST@KL will spotlight exciting aspects of automotive culture, featuring exhibits on Japanese Domestic Market (JDM), motorsports, and Esports and gaming, creating an interactive experience within the fairground.
This year’s event will also see the return of EMMA Malaysia, showcasing a variety of car audio modifications.
To enhance the experience, DIY workshops will facilitate learning and knowledge sharing through high quality demonstrations.
In addition to established highlights, the debuting Outdoor, Camping, Campervan and Caravan Zone will showcase a range of self-contained campervans with lightweight camping gear as well as luxurious campervans for glamping, as interest in green living rises among Malaysian youth.
