COMvex 2026 results: applied solutions, record attendance and trend updates
The Main Exhibition of Commercial Vehicles and Technologies in Russia, COMvex, held on May 26-29, 2026 at the Crocus Expo IEC, marked a new vector for the development of the industry.
The exhibitors, following the strengthening of the trend of customer focus, relied on applied solutions and "package" sales with an in-depth study of individual operating experience.
The exposition was updated thematically: in addition to traditional large-sized models, passenger transport and trailers, enough number of equipment was presented for the rapidly developing services of marketplaces, HoReCa and Retail segments. The most important is that both exhibitors and visitors noted the general positive mood that reigned at the exhibition, which may indicate a slow and gradual revival of interest in the commercial vehicle market in Russia.

"If there is interest, then the market is alive – this is how the key exhibitors this year answered us on the site. The COMvex exhibition traditionally acts as a mirror of the industry, and we were able to see the trend reversal with the naked eye.
With a justified decrease in the exposition, the share of target visitors increased by 4%: 39,517 visitors against 37 thousand in 2025. We observed the direct acquisition of exhibits, the building of new strategic partnerships between key companies, as well as a stable, growing interest in the market and the current offers of participants. There is a strong feeling that expectations for sales growth in relation to last year's figures are quite realistic"
