Event Details

About the Show

Sydney International EV AutoShow is a major public and industry showcase dedicated to electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids and the rapidly developing future-mobility sector.

Positioned as a high-energy festival of electric transport rather than a traditional motor show, the event allows visitors to compare vehicles from multiple manufacturers in one location, speak directly with industry representatives and experience selected models through on-road or controlled test-drive activities.

Across three days, automotive manufacturers, technology providers, energy businesses, charging specialists, government representatives, financial service providers and mobility innovators can connect with consumers who are actively researching their next vehicle.

The program combines major vehicle displays with model launches, live stage discussions, finance and ownership information, family-friendly activities and education covering EV charging, running costs, infrastructure and purchasing considerations.
