The International Electric Vehicle Symposium and Exhibition (EVS) is returning to Europe for its 2025 event, bringing together manufacturers, authorities and researchers from across the world.

More than 10,000 visitors and around 1,500 experts from more than 70 countries are expected to attend the EVS 38 event, which takes place in Gothenburg, Sweden from 15 to 18 June 2025.

The aim of the event is to share the latest EV research, technology and innovations – from powertrains and manufacturing through to parking, software, AI, fleet management and mobility solutions.

The symposium also aims to educate the public and decision-makers while raising awareness of the advantages and challenges electric vehicles present.

The EVS series began in 1969 as an academic forum for global networking and the exchange of technical information. It’s since expanded into an event that’s both academic- and business-orientated, held in a different location in either Asia, Europe or the United States every year, with the goal of promoting clean and sustainable mobility.

EVS 38 is co-organised by AVERE, the European Association for Electromobility, the city of Gothenburg and the Lyon-based agency Live! By GL Events, with the support of Business Region Gothenburg and Gothenburg & Co.

As part of the symposium, a series of parallel events will be organised in collaboration with the industry and universities to engage the wider public. To this end, EVS launched a call for abstracts last June, allowing researchers, academics, professionals, and other experts in the e-mobility sector to submit their research or project abstracts in the form of scientific articles. They will be examined by 200 reviewers chosen from a panel of experts, and the selected works may be presented orally or in the form of e-posters during the event.
