ACT Expo, the largest fleet technology conference and expo in North America, returns to the Las Vegas Convention Center from May 4–7, 2026. Now in its 16th year, ACT Expo is recognized as a primary annual fleet event. Last year, the trade show drew more than 12,000 attendees. Sustainable Truck&Van was among the media partners of the event: here’s our report about last year’s show.

According to the organizers, the spotlight will be on AI and Autonomy. Indeed, ACT Expo 2026 will emphasize digital solutions like AI, connected platforms, advanced analytics, and autonomous vehicle technologies. Attendees are supposed to see over 200 low- and zero-emission vehicles, with strong focus on EVs, hydrogen, renewable natural gas, and propane.

ACT Expo 2026: new brand identity unveiled

There will also be a new brand identity, as the event will now be known simply as ACT Expo, reflecting its expanded scope across advanced, autonomous, connected, and clean transportation technologies. The show was formerly known as Advanced Clean Transportation Expo. Now, the organizers want to broaden the range of solutions, conferences and also products on display in Vegas.

That’s why ACT Expo 2026 will place greater emphasis on the digital frontier, reflecting rising industry investment in software-defined vehicles, connected vehicle platforms and infrastructure, real-time data collection and analysis via the use of AI, and autonomy.

“The pace of change and acceleration of advanced technologies in commercial transportation is phenomenal; it’s unlike anything we have seen before,” said Erik Neandross, President of Clean Transportation Solutions at TRC, producers of ACT Expo. “From the boardroom to the show floor, ACT Expo is the one place where C-suite representatives from fleets, OEMs, and infrastructure partners engage directly to shape real-world progress and the future of their businesses. It’s where fleet leaders learn what’s actually working in the field, what’s just around the corner, and where they can better understand proven strategies that can deliver both economic and environmental results.”
