It was started in 1986 as the Gaikindo Car Exhibition, then continued as Indonesia International Motor Show.[1] Since 2015, it was spun off from the Indonesia International Motor Show and is held annually at Indonesia Convention Exhibition in South Tangerang, and also as series in Surabaya, Medan and Makassar.[2][3][4][5]

Established in 1986, the Gaikindo Car Exhibition, hosted by Gaikindo was Indonesia’s largest automotive exhibition.

Early history
In 1986, the first automotive exhibition was hosted by GAIKINDO under the name of GAIKINDO Car Exhibition, and 13 GAIKINDO members took part. In 1989, the exhibition changed its name to Jakarta Auto Expo. In 1994, after being postponed for two years due to the government’s tight money policy, Jakarta Auto Expo was back and in 1996, the exhibition reached a record-breaking achievement compared to the previous years, attended by more than 200,000 visitors
2000–2014
In 2000, Jakarta Auto Expo changed its name to Gaikindo Auto Expo after being postponed for 3 years in a row due to Asian Financial Crisis. In 2003, the 12th Gaikindo Auto Expo held on 19–27 July 2003, participated by 150 automotive-related companies, and covered 35,000 sqm of Jakarta Convention Center (JCC), and visited by 180.000 visitors. In 2006, the exhibition was listed as part of the world’s automotive exhibition, endorsed by OICA (Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d’Automobiles) and the exhibition changed its name to Indonesia International Motor Show. In 2008, the exhibition covered 40.000sqm of JCC, indoor and outdoor, participated by 161 exhibitors and visited by 206.100 visitors.
In attempt to remain progressive, in 2009, the exhibition moved to a bigger venue: Jakarta International Expo, Kemayoran, which covered area around 60,000 sqm, participated by 163 exhibitors and visited by 241.687 visitors. Furthermore, after a remarkable success on the previous year, in 2014, the exhibition was utilising more than 80,000 sqm, participated by 322 exhibitors and visited by 380.365 visitors, the exhibition was in urgent need of more extensive area.
