AUTO ATHINA 2026 car exhibition

Overview

The AUTO ATHINA 2026 car exhibition is scheduled to take place from October 3 to October 11 at the Metropolitan Expo in Greece. The event is expected to be the largest in the country, featuring a record 52 automotive brands.

The exhibition highlights a shifting market characterized by a rise in hybrid engines—which now account for approximately half of all sales—and an increasing presence of Chinese manufacturers using Greece as a gateway to Southern Europe. The lineup includes traditional European, Japanese, and Korean manufacturers alongside new entrants such as BYD, Zeekr, and XPeng.

This event follows a period of economic recovery in Greece, which saw a 5.2% annual increase in vehicle registrations in 2025, marking the highest sales volume in sixteen years.
