According to the organizers, the automotive industry's interest in next year's IAA Mobility trade fair is greater than in 2023. "We currently have 20 percent more registrations," says Jan Heckmann, IAA Project Manager at the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA). There are significantly more suppliers in particular who want to exhibit.

The IAA 2025 takes place in Munich from September 9 to 14. For the general public, there will once again be exhibitions and festivals in several squares in the city center, from where visitors can start test drives. Trade visitors will meet at the exhibition grounds in Riem for personal discussions.

"Industry meetings are important in times of crisis"

This targeted division was very well received by the exhibitors, says VDA Managing Director Jürgen Mindel. The automotive industry can showcase its innovative strength at the IAA. And "especially in times of crisis, such industry meetings and personal exchanges are more important than ever."

Among the applicants are BMW, Mercedes, Volkswagen and the Chinese car manufacturer BYD, suppliers such as Bosch, Continental, Forvia, Schaeffler, Valeo and ZF as well as corporations such as Google and Samsung.

The interest of Chinese companies in competing in Europe is unbroken, says Mindel. An e-car congress organized by the Chinese Automobile Association is also firmly planned for the trade fair. The industry giants Toyota and Stellantis and the US car manufacturers Tesla, Ford and GM are not yet among the exhibitors. However, there are talks, says Heckman.
