Auto Shanghai (Chinese: 上海国际汽车展), officially known as the Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition (Chinese: 上海国际汽车工业展览会), is a biennial international automobile show that alternates with the Beijing Auto Show (Auto China) as China's yearly international automotive exhibition.[1] First held in 1985, Auto Shanghai is the nation's oldest auto exhibition, and is considered as an important major international auto show.[2]
Due to the greatly expanding presence of foreign brands in the Chinese markets, Auto Shanghai has become one of the premier international auto shows alongside Detroit, Frankfurt, Paris and Tokyo, and was also the first Chinese auto show to join the Union des Foires Internationales (UFI). Since 2015, the show is hosted at the National Center for Exhibition and Convention, located next to the Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport.
