Japan Mobility Show Tokyo

The Japan Mobility Show, formerly known as the Tokyo Motor Show and established in 1954, positions itself as an innovative and future-oriented exhibition in the vibrant heart of Tokyo, specifically at Tokyo Big Sight, and plays a pivotal role in the global automotive industry. Operating on a biennial cycle, the event provides impressive insights into the latest developments and concepts of the mobility sector. Organized by the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, Inc. (JAMA), the main theme of the exhibition consistently focuses on "Future," "Green," and "Dream," aiming to reflect and shape the role and form of automobility in the society of the future..

The original name, Tokyo Motor Show, referred to the specific location and a strong focus on the motorized vehicle industry. Now known as "Japan Mobility Show," the abbreviation "JMS" symbolizes the evolution and expanded focus of the exhibition, which no longer exclusively highlights the technology and design of cars but takes a more comprehensive look at the mobility of the future. This encompasses a wide range of vehicles and concepts, including Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEVs), motorcycles, and next-generation mobility solutions, from Japan and the international sphere.

Characteristic of the exhibition are main events such as the Tokyo Future Tour, the Startup Future Factory, and the Japan Future Session, all of which promote discourse and interactive engagement between visitors and exhibitors. The exhibitors, coming from a multitude of industries - including passenger cars, commercial vehicles, motorcycles, vehicle bodies, parts, machinery, and future mobility solutions - provide a comprehensive overview of the current state and future trends of the mobility industry.

The Japan Mobility Show not only holds significant importance for the city of Tokyo and the country of Japan as a whole, serving as a platform for Japanese companies to showcase their developments in the domestic market but also acts as an international hub that welcomes companies from all over the world.

Visitors, primarily from the automotive and mobility sector but also from adjacent sectors, as well as those interested in technology and innovation, will encounter a variety of products, services, and technological developments that have the potential to shape and define the future of mobility.

Tokyo Big Sight, as the venue, offers impressive architecture and extensive facilities to optimally support both exhibitors and visitors. It is well-connected in terms of transportation and easily accessible by both public transport and car. Thus, the Japan Mobility Show presents itself as a national and international center for all those committed to the future of mobility and offers a fascinating and inspiring insight into what will shape the industry in the coming years.

On the whole the organisers welcomed on the 10 days of the fair, from 27. October to 05. November 2017, about 702300 visitors on the Japan Mobility Show in Tokyo.

The Japan Mobility Show takes place biennially, and therefore for the 47th time previsibly in November 2025 in Tokyo.
