Etymology & Components

The Chinese word 车展 (chēzhǎn) is a compound word consisting of two characters: 车 (chē) and 展 (zhǎn). The character 车 originally meant "carriage" or "cart" in ancient Chinese, but its meaning has evolved over time to refer to any type of vehicle. The character 展, on the other hand, means "to display" or "to exhibit". When these two characters are combined, 车展 literally means "vehicle display" or "vehicle exhibition". In the context of modern Chinese, 车展 specifically refers to an event where various types of vehicles are displayed and showcased to the public. These events are typically organized by automobile manufacturers and dealerships to promote their latest models and attract potential customers.
