60 percent of exhibiting space already sold as the automotive industry gears up for Automechanika Jakarta 2026

30 Mar 2026

Following its announcement, Automechanika Jakarta 2026 has drawn strong interest for its debut edition, scheduled for 24 to 27 September 2026 at the Nusantara International Convention Exhibition (NICE). With 15,000 sqm of exhibition space across three halls, the event will serve as a comprehensive gateway to the high potential Indonesian market for international and domestic industry stakeholders. Interest has been strong, with 60 percent of the floor space booked by leading companies within Indonesia and worldwide.

Automechanika Jakarta serves as a strategic platform for the automotive industry to gain a foothold in Indonesia’s fast‑growing economy. A mix of global brands, local manufacturers, distributors, and service providers have all confirmed their participation, creating direct access to business opportunities across the country’s expanding automotive ecosystem.

Domestic exhibitors to showcase the best of the region’s offerings
Key companies involved include Astra International, Dharma Group, Indoprima Group, Selamat Sempurna, and Timur Raya Anugerah Damai, distributor of 555, Seiken, GMB, and NSK, among others, highlighting the country’s strong industrial foundation.

Astra International will be spotlighted, as one of the country’s major manufacturers, and distributors for Aisin, Akebono, Astra Components, Century Batteries, Denso, Evoluzione Tyres, GS Battery, KYB, Pako, and more. Mr Martogi Siahaan, Director of Astra Otoparts said: “We recognise the growing demand for high-quality auto components in production and aftermarket in Indonesia. This event is a vital platform for collaboration and aligning our strategies with global trends to support Indonesia’s evolving automotive landscape.”

Additionally, Indoprima Group, a renowned supplier, presents a portfolio of brake linings, clutch facings, wiring harnesses, and springs. Mr Ricky Setiawan, Commercial General Manager of Indospring, a subsidiary of Indoprima Group, said: “We have participated in Automechanika events since 2014, and look forward to Automechanika Jakarta. As a regional hub for automotive spare parts, the show offers excellent opportunities to meet potential customers from around the world.”

Overseas players look to tap into ASEAN potential
On top of this, global key industry players will also feature. For instance, five country and region pavilions are already confirmed, from China, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand.

Backed by the Singaporean government, the Singapore pavilion will be a standout feature of the show floor, with about 20 companies occupying nearly 300 sqm of exhibition space. Major player, Scantruck Singapore, who supply European commercial vehicle parts and technical expertise, aim for greater reach and cooperation through pavilion participation. “What makes the market particularly attractive is the strong growth in sectors such as logistics, mining, construction, and infrastructure development, which continue to drive demand for reliable aftermarket parts and service support”, commented Mr Ricky Widjajakusuma, General Manager of Scantruck Singapore. He added: “Automechanika Jakarta helps to bridge international suppliers with the local market, and we are excited to explore new collaborations in Indonesia.”

Another highlight of this global influence is TriAlliance, featuring in the Malaysian pavilion, and offering aftermarket parts across all powertrains and vehicle types as it seeks expansion in a region with extensive possibilities. Mr Thorben Schröder, General Manager at TriAlliance, said this of their inclusion: “We see strong potential in this market through a growing middle class, rising vehicle ownership, and more new-energy vehicles that are driving demand for an enhanced aftermarket. Automechanika Jakarta supports our global strategy by letting us showcase new products, build partnerships, and expand our presence.”

Other overseas leaders like Asuki, Filtration Solution, Launch, Mahle, Mansons, Meiji Sangyo, Schmaco, SKF, TecAlliance, Teikin, TUV Rheinland, and more will present components and services for manufacturing, maintenance, and longevity.

Indonesia’s automotive industry accelerates into a growth phase
Foreign investment and deep integration of local suppliers into global supply chains have kept the country’s vehicle production robust. In 2025, car production reached around 1.15 million units[1], while motorcycle output approached 7 million units[2], solidifying Indonesia’s status as Southeast Asia’s largest manufacturing base. This competitiveness is underscored by completely built-up (CBU) vehicle shipments surging to an all-time high of 518,000 units[3].

The aftermarket sector is also poised for expansion, forecast at a CAGR of 5.2 percent between 2024 and 2030[4], fuelled by broadening car ownership and an ageing fleet. Increasing consumer awareness for safety further amplifies demand for repair and maintenance services, presenting lucrative prospects for aftermarket businesses.

EV growth powers Indonesia’s road ahead
As more EVs take to the road, demand for adapted technologies and specialised skills rises. The government’s target to deploy 15 million EVs by 2030 is backed by incentives, infrastructure, and policies aimed at fostering a complete battery and EV supply chain[5]. These initiatives are positioning Indonesia as a regional EV production powerhouse, attracting strong international interest and reinforcing its role in the future of electric mobility.

Automechanika Jakarta will spotlight cutting-edge solutions meeting these evolving needs, connecting stakeholders across the entire automotive ecosystem. This comprehensive range of product categories include Parts & Components, Electrics & Electronics, Accessories & Customising, Diagnostics & Repair, Digital Solutions & Services, Tyres & Wheels, Body & Paint, Automotive Manufacturing & Automation, as well as Logistics, Warehousing & Supply Chain, covering passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, and motorcycles.

With its broad spectrum of exhibitors, Automechanika Jakarta provides visitors and exhibitors alike, from manufactures and distributors to service providers and technology innovators, with unparalleled insights into the latest industry trends and innovative solutions shaping the future of ASEAN’s automotive landscape.

There is still time to join this influential lineup of exhibitors. Potential participants are strongly encouraged to secure their spots early to maximise visibility and impact at Automechanika Jakarta 2026, gaining premium positioning and enhanced exposure at the show.

In addition, the co-located Drive Expo Jakarta will showcase new car models in passenger, commercial vehicle and motorcycle sectors that are shaping Indonesia’s automotive evolution.
