The organisers of the Melbourne EV Show as set to launch a dedicated light commercial vehicle show in Sydney.
Sydney’s International Convention and Exhibition Centre will play host to a specialised light commercial motor show focusing on utes and vans, and aimed at small to medium businesses.
The Light Commercial Motor Show will take place from Thursday, August 7, to Sunday, August 10, 2025.
The event will be broken up into dedicated trade days on Thursday and Friday, with public access to the show taking place on Saturday and Sunday.
The Light Commercial Motor Show is aimed at fleet managers, tradespeople, and small-to-medium businesses.
The light commercial show will focus on the display of utes, vans, and people movers with internal combustion and electrified powertrains.
“As the only platform in Australia dedicated to light commercial vehicles, we’re committed to fostering collaboration between OEMs, fleet operators and industry bodies.” Ray Evans, the founder and CEO of FutureDrive AutoShows said in a statement.
“This is where the future of transport policy, regulation and infrastructure planning will be shaped.”
The Light Commercial Motor Show (LCMS) claims it will have over 100 vehicles on display from brands including BYD, Chery, Geely, GWM, Ford, Ineos, MG, Toyota, and more.
Companies like NRMA, Rhino Rack, and Stratton Finance, among others, have also been announced as participants in the expo.
Test drives of select vehicles will be available during the event, along with presentations from experts in fleet operations.
The event also ties in with SmallBiz Week, with ticketholders able to access the small business expo being held on August 7-8 at the Sydney International Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Access to the event is free to eligible businesses via reservation for the trade days, with public access tickets priced at $28.00 and available through the LCMS website.
