The Classic met the future: supercars and electric vehicles gathered together. The most eye-catching focus of this auto show is the competition between classic cars and future electric cars on the same stage. Classic cars such as the BMW E30 M3 and Lamborghini Superleggera are not only fans’ dream pieces, but also represent the automotive craftsmanship of an era. In contrast, electric vehicle brands such as Tesla and Gogoro demonstrate the future development direction of the automobile industry, allowing visitors to experience the charm of century-old classics and innovative technologies at once.

Five exhibition areas and rich activities satisfied all the car fans. For the two-day event, the organizer especially planned five major exhibition areas, covering classic supercars, electric vehicles, heavy machinery, commercial vehicles, and campers to meet the needs of different car fans. In addition, Funcity Racing were invited to the site to add more exciting elements to the auto show. Various manufacturers also took advantage of the end of the year to launch a number of promotional activities, attracting many car fans.

We will continue to improve and make the auto show even more exciting! In the future, the STUST Auto Show will develop in the following directions:
The explosion of smart technology〡 In addition to the cars, STUST wanted visitors to experience the future! In the future, the STUST Auto Show will introduce more cool technologies, such as AR and VR, making them feel like in a science fiction movie experiencing the fun of future driving in advance. Autonomous driving, smart cockpits, and all the scenes they had seen in movies might all be realized at the STUST Auto Show.
A new era of green transportation〡 With the rise of environmental awareness, electric vehicles and energy-saving vehicles have attracted more and more attention. In the future, the STUST Auto Show will expand the proportion of electric vehicles and energy-saving vehicles on display, so that everyone can better understand these environmentally friendly means of transportation. STUST hopes that through the auto show, the university can promote the concept of green transportation and let everyone work together to contribute to environmental protection.
To View the Auto Show from an International Perspective〡The STUST Auto Show does not only belong to Taiwan. STUST hopes to build it into an international automotive event. In the future, we will invite more internationally renowned car manufacturers to participate in the exhibition, so that everyone can appreciate the world's top car designs without going abroad.
STUST believes that through continuous innovation and efforts, the STUST Auto Show will become the largest and most influential automotive event in Taiwan. We also hope that the STUST Auto Show can bring more vitality into Taiwan's automobile industry and a better car experience to everyone!
