Everything about green cars from finished cars to parts and services is set be displayed.

The 11th International Green Car Korea will be held from July 5 to 7 at the Kim Daejung Convention Center in Gwangju. Hosted by the Gwangju Metropolitan City and co-conducted by the Kim Daejung Convention Center, Gwangju Green Car Promotion Center, Korea Trade- Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA), and Korea Auto Parts Association, the International Green Car Korea is Korea’s representative event leading the development of the eco-friendly automobile industry and the 4th Industrial Revolution. Everything about eco-friendly automobiles from finished cars to auto parts, automotive application components, infrastructure, and services, will be on display in the exhibition.
International Green Car Korea, Korea’s first green car exhibition, has introduced the theme “Green Car” for the first time in Korea. It is the only one among the automobilerelated exhibitions in Korea that has acquired the official label “UFI Approved Event” from the Union Des Foires Internationales (UFI), a global association of the exhibition industry, and certified as an international exhibition by Korea’s Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE). Accordingly, it has been selected as a promising exhibition that will lead the Korean automobile industry this year.
The eco-friendly green car industry has now moved beyond optional to essential. This is supported by the fact that the number of cars, which had been less than 1 million units 10 years ago, is now rapidly growing to 2.62 million units, in line with COP(Conference of the Parties)21 and the environmental policies of each nation. The International Green Car Korea will give a powerful glimpse of the present state of Korean and overseas technology trends, environmental regulations, and eco-friendly vehicles.
This year, the International Green Car Korea will see participation by the UK’s Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), along with its member companies as well as eco-friendly vehicles and parts makers such as KOMEL, an electric motor manufacturer from Poland, as well as the Flying Car Association, which will showcase manned drones, a future transportation, and the member companies; the Gwangju Aftermarket Auto Parts Council and member companies that manufacture and supply automobile parts to the market to provide performance enhancement and stability of auto parts; MPS Korea specializing in electric commercial vehicles; APRO that specializes in the production of automotive parts and lamps; Earthtech, a battery recycling company that recycles energy storage system (ESS) for waste batteries from electric vehicles; Protec EMS, an electric charger supplier; and AutoLine, which produces and distributes eco-friendly automobile products.
In addition, it will draw participation by research centers in domestic universities as well as companies. In addition to those companies, the research centers in Korean universities including KAIST’s Wireless Power Transfer Research Center, Eco- Friendly Vehicle Human Resources Development Project based on ICT Convergence in Chonnam National University, Linc Plus Project in Chosun University, Environment-friendly Energy Car Research Society in Konkuk University will present new ideas to lead the future automotive industry.
In addition, the newly introduced “EV Trend Zone” will show the trend of eco-friendly finished cars, displaying Hyundai Motor’s hydrogen car Nexo and Kona EV, an electric vehicle, Kia Motors’ 2018 Kia Soul EV and Niro EV, GM’s Chevy Bolt EV, 2018 Toyota Prius c, and BMW i3 will be on display. This will be a meaningful opportunity to meet and compare various eco-friendly vehicles such as electric cars, hybrid cars, and hydrogen cars at the same time.
In particular, thanks to the reputation of the exhibition, which has been growing year after year, there will be various business, academic, and other events including B2B meetings with about 100 leading foreign buyers invited by KOTRA, a co-organizer, and Korea Auto Parts Association as well as the International Conference on Advanced Automotive Technology (ICAT 2018), a conference focused on electric vehicles that will provide a glimpse of trends in relevant academic and industrial circles around the world under the theme “EVer Green,” and the Hyundai Motor Hydrogen Electric House, where visitors can experience everything about environment-friendly alternative energy of the future.
