LOS ANGELES (September 4, 2025) – AutoMobility LA®, the premier press and industry gathering for the Los Angeles Auto Show®, will spotlight the future of fleet mobility with an expanded Fleet Innovation Showcase headlined by a keynote from Voltera, a leader in electric and autonomous vehicle charging infrastructure. The program takes place during AutoMobility LA on Nov. 20 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
Building on the success of last year’s inaugural showcase, the 2025 program will cover the full spectrum of fleet innovation, from electrification and hydrogen to digital services, micromobility, and infrastructure, giving media and industry attendees direct access to the technologies and partnerships shaping commercial transportation’s next decade.
“Fleets are at the center of the transition to zero-emission mobility and advanced digital solutions,” said Terri Toennies, president and chief operating officer of the LA Auto Show and AutoMobility LA. “By evolving our showcase, AutoMobility LA offers manufacturers, technology companies, and service providers an unparalleled opportunity to debut their latest innovations and connect with decision-makers shaping commercial transportation.”
