The CAIMTME has been successfully held for six years and it will be co-organized by the China Association of Automobile Manufactures (CAMM), China Innovative League of Automobile Manufacturing Equipment and Chongqing Economy and Information Committee.

The expo is expected to cover an area of 46,000 square meters, with over 600 leading companies exhibiting products at the show.
