Call for democars

Showcase your innovations where technology meets reality!

As part of VISION 2026, we are offering companies the opportunity to display their demo cars — indoors or outdoors — throughout the two days of the event. These vehicles allow attendees to experience technologies firsthand and bring your R&D achievements to life.

 

In 2024, over ten demo cars were presented, attracting strong attention from attendees and providing excellent visibility to the exhibiting teams.

 

Participation is free of charge, but indoor spaces are limited — so don’t miss your chance to highlight your latest developments in a unique and inspiring environment.

 

Submit your demo car proposal now and take part in one of the most dynamic and forward-looking showcases of automotive innovation!
