The automotive world meets at the IAA Commercial Vehicles. It is the world’s leading trade fair for mobility, transportation, and logistics. Its comprehensive innovations, exhibitors from several industries, discussions, and, last but not least, the expert visitor structure represent a unique profile.

The origins of the IAA can be traced back more than 100 years. In 1897, 8 motor vehicles were exhibited to the public at the Bristol Hotel in Berlin. From these humble beginnings, a regular exhibition was established that, due to its high visitor turnout, had to be separated into an alternating exhibition of passenger cars and commercial vehicles in 1991. In odd-numbered years the IAA Cars are held in Frankfurt; even-numbered years see the IAA Commercial Vehicles in Hannover.
