The much-anticipated Manila International Auto Show (MIAS) is gearing up for another exciting edition as it returns to the World Trade Center in Pasay City starting April 10. Known as the Philippines’ premier motoring event, MIAS 2025 is expected to gather more than 20 major automotive brands and thousands of car enthusiasts under one roof.
Organized by Worldbex Services International (WSI), this year’s MIAS marks its 20th anniversary and continues its tradition of being a launchpad for the newest vehicles and automotive technologies. The event continues to serve as a key platform for car manufacturers, aftermarket brands, parts suppliers, and motoring lifestyle companies to showcase their latest products and innovations.
This year, MIAS will fully occupy the World Trade Center (WTC) in Pasay City, marking a shift from the previous year’s dual-venue setup that included the SMX Convention Center. The move to a single venue aims to centralize activities and exhibits while maintaining a world-class showcase of vehicles and services.
Among the participating brands are Aito, BAIC, Bestune, BYD, Changan, Chery, Foton, GAC, GWM (Great Wall Motors), Hyundai, Isuzu, Jetour, Kia, Lynk & Co, MG, Nissan, Omoda Jaecoo, ROX, Suzuki, Tesla, VinFast, and Zeekr.
In addition to passenger cars, MIAS 2025 will also highlight the commercial vehicle segment, with FAW, JAC, and Sinotruk showcasing their heavy-duty trucks. Visitors can expect a comprehensive view of the mobility spectrum, from electric vehicles and hybrid models to utility vehicles and fleet transport options.
Beyond the car displays, MIAS 2025 will also offer a range of engaging activities and exhibits for visitors of all interests. Attendees can test-drive select models at the Test Drive Avenue, where they can get a real feel for the vehicles they’re eyeing to purchase. The Aftermarket and Accessories Zone will feature the latest in car care products and performance parts, while interactive tech booths will showcase smart mobility and AI-driven vehicle innovations. Visitors can also enjoy the Petron Custom & Classic Car Competition, a knockout-style tournament where the public votes for their favorite modified and classic vehicles across various categories. The show also celebrates local automotive culture with a Car Club Display, gathering various car clubs that will present both stock and modified vehicles representing different brands and styles. Lifestyle exhibits, family-friendly attractions like die-cast and toy car displays, food stalls, and raffle promos round out the MIAS 2025 experience, ensuring there’s something for everyone at this milestone 20th-year celebration.
With global shifts toward electrification, automation, and AI-assisted driving technologies, MIAS 2025 emphasizes the Philippines’ growing involvement in future mobility trends and innovations. The country’s contributions in vehicle assembly and parts manufacturing, coupled with rising local interest in smart mobility, will be demonstrated with the event's forward-looking themes.
MIAS also enjoys the support of key industry groups such as the Automobile Association of the Philippines (AAP), Tuason Racing School (TRS), and the Car Awards Group Inc. (CAGI). These partnerships reinforce the event’s credibility and commitment to driving excellence across all industry segments.
Tickets for MIAS 2025 are now available to the public. Prices are set at ₱150 for regular admission and ₱120 for senior citizens and persons with disabilities (PWDs). MIAS 2025 opens its doors on April 10 and runs until April 13 at the World Trade Center in Pasay City. Whether you're a casual car fan, a prospective buyer, or a seasoned industry player, the show promises an up-close look at the future of mobility.
