The Ministry of Commerce has finally put an end to all the guesswork—Bharat Mobility Global Expo’s third edition is happening from February 4-9, 2027, right here in Delhi-NCR.
After months of industry folks asking “when’s the next big show?”, we’ve got our answer. The organizers have clearly learned from the rapid-fire 2024 and 2025 editions, deciding to give everyone a breather with this new biennial approach. Smart move, honestly—gives manufacturers actual time to cook up something worth showing off instead of rushing prototypes to the floor.
What’s New This Time Around
Buckle up, because 2027 is shaping up to be quite the ride. The expo isn’t just sticking to the usual four-wheelers and two-wheelers anymore. They’re going full throttle on multimodal mobility solutions—and no, that’s not just marketing jargon.
We’re talking trains, planes, boats, and yes, even tractors getting prime real estate at the show. The agricultural mobility section is particularly exciting if you ask me. It’s about time our farming community got some love at these big automotive shindigs. After all, India runs on agriculture as much as it does on Maruti 800s.

Venue and Scale
Same drill as 2025—expect the expo to take over half of Delhi-NCR. The organizers will likely use their tried-and-tested trio:
- Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi (the fancy one)
- Yashobhoomi Convention Centre in Dwarka
- India Expo Centre & Mart out in Greater Noida
The 2025 show was absolutely massive—2 lakh square meters of exhibition space, over 1,500 exhibitors, and nearly 10 lakh visitors. That’s more people than live in some Indian cities! Walking the entire show felt like completing a half-marathon, honestly.
Why the Two-Year Gap Matters
Look, skipping 2026 might seem odd at first, but it’s actually brilliant. The global auto show scene has been all over the place since COVID hit. Everyone’s moving to this every-other-year format, and frankly, it makes sense.
Companies get breathing room to develop stuff that’s actually worth unveiling. Remember those rushed concept cars that looked great but never saw production? Yeah, hopefully fewer of those now. Plus, visitors won’t suffer from automotive exhibition fatigue—you know, that feeling when you’ve seen so many cars that they all start looking the same.
What to Expect
If 2025 was any indication, electric vehicles will practically own the show floor. We saw some proper game-changers last time—the Maruti e-Vitara finally making its debut, Hyundai bringing the Creta EV, and VinFast showing up from Vietnam like they owned the place.
But here’s what’s got me really curious: the new urban and rural mobility segments. India’s mobility puzzle isn’t something you solve with one solution. What works for navigating Mumbai’s infamous traffic jams won’t help a farmer in rural Haryana. Finally, someone’s acknowledging that reality.
Industry Impact
The whole Bharat Mobility thing has grown way beyond the old Auto Expo days. It’s not just about manufacturers showing off their shiniest toys anymore—though let’s be honest, we still love that part.
This expo is becoming India’s statement to the world about how we plan to move around in the future. With heavy government backing and all the major industry bodies throwing their weight behind it, this isn’t just another trade show. It’s turning into a proper strategic platform.
The timing couldn’t be better either. By 2027, we’ll hopefully have clearer roads (literally and figuratively) for EV adoption, better charging infrastructure, and maybe even some of those flying cars we keep hearing about. Okay, maybe not the flying cars, but a guy can dream, right?
