On September 7, the Shanghai Council for Promoting International Trade confirmed that the Beijing Auto Show and the Shanghai Auto Show would continue to be held on alternate years. A coordination meeting was held on September 3, and it was agreed that in 2027, the Beijing Auto Show will be held in the form of a specialized theme show, scheduled for March; the Shanghai Auto Show will be held as originally planned from the end of April to early May. This arrangement aims to avoid functional overlap and optimize industry resources, continuing the “Shanghai once a year, Beijing twice a year” scheduling mechanism established in 2002. Previously, due to legal disputes and lawsuits caused by the change in the organizer of the Shanghai Auto Show in 2024, the Beijing Auto Show was changed to be held once a year and scheduled for March 2027, which coincided with the schedule of the Shanghai Auto Show, resulting in increased marketing costs for automakers.

On September 7, the Shanghai Council for Promoting International Trade issued an explanation of the arrangements, confirming that the Beijing Auto Show and the Shanghai Auto Show will continue to be held on alternate years. On September 3, both parties held a coordination meeting and reached an important consensus: in 2027, the Beijing Auto Show will be held in the form of a specialized theme show, scheduled for March; the Shanghai Auto Show will be held as originally planned from the end of April to early May. This arrangement aims to avoid functional overlap and coordinate industry resources, continuing the “Shanghai once a year, Beijing twice a year” staggered schedule established in 2002. Previously, due to legal disputes and lawsuits caused by the change in the organizer of the Shanghai Auto Show in 2024, the Beijing Auto Show was changed to be held once a year and scheduled for March 2027, overlapping with the time of the Shanghai Auto Show, which led to increased marketing costs for car companies.
