CIAACE 2026 | The 38th Yasn Beijing Exhibition Successfully Held, Driving New Upgrades Across the Entire Automotive Industry Chain from Design to Manufacturing, and from Use to Service

From March 13–16, 2026, the 38th China International Auto Service, Products & Equipment Exhibition (CIAACE) was successfully held at the Capital International Exhibition Center in Beijing. The event also hosted China’s International New Energy Vehicle Technology, Parts and Services Exhibition (CINEVE) and The 13th China International All in Tuning Exhibition (AIT).

As the first major exhibition of the year, CIAACE covered three key sectors: modified vehicles, new energy vehicles, and fuel vehicles, providing a comprehensive and panoramic view of the entire industry chain's revitalized ecosystem.

This year marks a key milestone for the Yasn Beijing Exhibition as it successfully transitions from an "auto aftermarket full industry chain exhibition" to an "automotive industry chain exhibition covering design, manufacturing, usage, and services." With a history of 22 years, the Yasn Exhibition has entered a new phase of development.

This year's exhibition featured over 6,000 brands and more than 80,000 products, with over 6,000 new products making their debut. Notably, the proportion of new energy elements in the exhibition exceeded 20% for the first time, while automotive tuning accounted for over 10%, marking a year-on-year increase of 9.1% and 4.3%, respectively. The Yasn Exhibition has firmly established itself as a leader in "new" elements and has quickly increased its focus on "tuning" as well.

The number of original manufacturers and brand headquarters among this year's exhibitors has increased by 9.2% compared to last year. Among the more than 80,000 products on display, over 6,000 new products made their debut, with year-on-year growth of 8.5%, 6.3%, and 3.2% for product launches, first-time exhibitions, and first-time showcases, respectively. The "Beijing Debut" label has become even more prominent.

On the first day of the exhibition, the total number of attendees reached 99,956, setting a new historical high with a year-on-year increase of 4.6%. With the weekend coming up, it is expected that the number of general attendees will rise. Based on audience prediction models, the total number of visitors over the four-day exhibition period is expected to range between 290,000 and 330,000, with total visits potentially exceeding 580,000 for the first time. The habit of industry procurement in Beijing after the Lunar New Year has become even more ingrained among domestic and national audiences.

The audience structure continues to improve, with the ratio of domestic to international visitors remaining at 95:5, a slight increase of more than 1 percentage point compared to last year. The proportion of international visitors has risen by 1.6 percentage points year-on-year. Despite the current geopolitical tensions, including the ongoing US-Israel conflict, the number of international visitors still grew by 4.3%, demonstrating that the Yasn Beijing Exhibition's international influence continues to expand, adhering to the concept of "global resources, Chinese market."

With the growing influence of the New Energy Vehicle Exhibition and the AIT Tuning Exhibition, the ratio of professional to non-professional visitors at this year's event has further optimized. On the first day of the exhibition, the ratio of professional to non-professional attendees was approximately 91:9. It is expected that by the end of the exhibition, this ratio will likely be around 85:15. This reflects the impressive progress made by the Yasn Beijing Exhibition in promoting the development of automotive tuning and culture, with professional expertise and personalized experiences now evolving in tandem into a new phase.

While establishing itself as the first major exhibition of the year and helping buyers achieve one-stop procurement, the exhibition also hosted over 100 high-quality conferences and events, providing more public resources for the industry. These activities have been praised by the industry as the "first lesson of the year." On the first day of the exhibition, the total attendance for these concurrent events saw a significant year-on-year increase of 16%.

The 38th Yasn Beijing Exhibition 2026 was successfully held at a pivotal moment in the industry, with the penetration rate of new energy vehicles exceeding 50%. This exhibition holds significant symbolic meaning for the industry. The exhibition's focus on "new" and "tuning" elements has rapidly increased, further consolidating the Yasn Exhibition's position as a global industry leader. It has attracted high-quality global resources and key factors to the Chinese market, driving quality upgrades and healthy development of the entire automotive industry chain amid the ongoing transformation and upgrading.
