It is an important carrier for promoting international and domestic cooperation and an important window for western China to showcase its image and expand opening-up cooperation. The successful holding of the carnival not only concentrates on displaying the latest achievements of China's intelligent connected new energy vehicle industry, but also, with the dual-drive model of "industry connection + consumption promotion", becomes one of the new highlight activities with considerable industrial influence during the Western China Fair. It injects new momentum into the high-quality development of the automotive industry in western China, and is also a concrete practice for Chongqing to pilot the construction of new consumption formats, models, and scenarios and cultivate new growth points for consumption.

At the closing ceremony, Liu Chengfang, Deputy Secretary-General of the Machinery Industry Division of the CCPIT, stated in her speech that this carnival takes "Technology Empowerment · Smart Leading the West" as its core theme, creating an automotive industry event integrating premier debuts, dynamic experiences, technology popularization, and economic and trade connections.

Six Major Core Modules Fully Implemented, with Deep Fusion of Technology and Experience

This carnival's six major core modules were comprehensively upgraded, covering diverse scenarios such as static display, dynamic experience, technology popularization, safety test drive, and intelligent competition. The new product roadshow release zone kept brands constantly sounding; the New Intelligent & Electric Products First Exhibition brought cutting-edge technology within reach; in the dynamic experience camp, four hardcore projects—off-road ride-along, chassis bumpy road test, smart cockpit immersion, and Gymkhana high-speed pylon slalom—were extremely popular; the assisted parking challenge's human-machine PK drew continuous cheers; the technical popularization hall and safety experience camp brought cutting-edge technology into public life. Audience members could not only look at cars, but also test drive and ride them, feeling the true charm of intelligent connected new energy vehicles up close.

The "Yu Start Premiere · New Product Roadshow Release Zone" is the core main stage of this carnival, a core benchmark area for holding the entire automotive carnival ceremony, brand voice, traffic gathering, and honor crowning. During the four-day activity, major mainstream and emerging car companies held intensive new car launches and strategic briefing activities here, concentrating on displaying the latest results and brand trends in the intelligent connected and new energy fields.

The "Premier Appreciation · New Intelligent & Electric Products First Exhibition" is the core static brand image display window for this automotive carnival, providing customized immersive display spaces for each brand. Audience members can contact Changan's five brands—Avatr, Deepal, Qiyuan, Qiyin, and Kaicheng—all main-selling new models, Seres AITO all-series models, Tesla Model 3 and Model Y twin stars, and other characteristic car product displays, core technology dissection and analysis, smart cockpit immersive experience cabins, and on-site appointment test drive sessions up close, making cutting-edge technology "visible, touchable, and experienceable."

The "Yu Drive Premiere · New Product Dynamic Experience Camp" is the most popular core immersive experience venue of this carnival, attracting a large number of audience members to actively make appointments for experience on the opening day. The experience camp sets up four hardcore matrices, with models like Mengshi 917 and AITO M9 performing eye-catchingly.

The "Smart Connection Summit · Assisted Parking Challenge" became the most interactive viewing point competition project on site. Relying on new models debuted for the first time in this carnival and their built-in automatic parking systems, it created an interactive experience that is both immersive and competitive. The challenge uses a unified "Devil" parking space scenario to test the extreme performance of vehicles' intelligent parking capabilities. Vehicles equipped with parking systems completed the maneuver seamlessly and parked accurately, drawing continuous exclamations from the scene, fully demonstrating the technical maturity of automatic parking systems moving from "gimmick" to "practicality."

The "Tech Innovation Journey · Premiere Technical Popularization Hall" focuses on cutting-edge technologies of intelligent connected and new energy vehicles. During the activity, popularization explanation activities were conducted synchronously with static display, inviting industry experts and car company technical engineers to teach on site. With easy-to-understand language, it unlocks the mysteries of core technologies in intelligence & electricity and connectivity, attracting many families to participate and effectively improving public awareness of intelligence & electricity technologies.

The "Smart Safety & Power · New Energy Safety Experience Camp" opened city roads and short-distance test drive routes to guests. The routes cover real traffic scenarios such as urban congestion and ramp merging. Accompanied by professional test drivers, they personally drove hot new cars and deeply experienced their core highlights such as power performance, smart cockpit interaction, and navigation-assisted driving.

"China's Dragon Team of Automotive Industry" Launched, Gathering Industry Strength

At the closing ceremony, senior media personality and founder of "Follow My View / Qingche Shulu", Qing Qin, officially launched the "China's Dragon Team of Automotive Industry" segment. Based on the Western China Fair's core display window of "New Technologies, New Formats, New Models", "China's Dragon Team of Automotive Industry" uses the innovative form of "One-Stop Debut Carnival" to gather the most cutting-edge results of China's new energy vehicles in core fields such as Three-Electric Technology, Intelligent Connected, and Smart Cockpit, creating a full-chain display platform from domestic premiere to overseas landing. He stated that China's new energy vehicle technology is ready and strength awaits display. It cannot be limited to domestic markets; it must stand at the center of the global stage. Currently, Chinese automotive brands mostly appear on the global stage in "single-soldier combat", making it difficult to form a combined force to cope with international market challenges. Therefore, the Machinery Industry Division of the CCPIT will lead the "China's Dragon Team of Automotive Industry" to Warsaw, Poland in November 2026 to attend the largest and most influential International Warsaw Industry Exhibition in Central and Eastern Europe. Appearing collectively on the global stage as a core force of the official Chinese exhibition group, it will realize Chinese automotive brands bundling to go global—letting China's automotive new technologies, new formats, and new models be not limited to the one-stop debut at the Western China Fair, but let Chinese Intelligence amaze the world!
